Climax (2018)
Hell on earth for one night
A totally insane nightmare full of memorable images. The performances were intense and expressive, as expected of dancers. This was by no means lighthearted, but compared to other Noé films, this was easy and much more fun to watch unfold.
Rizu to aoi tori (2018)
(dis)joint
Watching it for the first time at its US premiere, this film was a pleasant surprise.
Went in knowing only that Kensuke Ushio was the composer for the film, but that was it. Back then it left me wondering "What is this feeling? So bittersweet". As time passed I noticed how it wouldn't leave my mind. How its characters and moments kept popping into my head, giving me that same bittersweet feeling accompained by a smile.
Now, upon rewatching it, my love for this film has finally solidified. I can say without a doubt that Yamada and Ushio are a powerhouse duo without match in the industry. Their works touch upon a very hidden spot in my heart that no other movie so far has touched. I understand that this may not be for everyone, but I strongly encourage everyone to give it a chance. Without a doubt a favorite I will watch for years to come.
