| 12.09.20 | Internet | This Screening is part of event: DVRfest 2020 This was very good. It also very much puts Uncut Gems into context, and it's different from what I thought it would be. I thought this would be kind of more like Pattinson's character is super desperate and running for his life like Sweet Smell of Success or Training Day but instead it's all about Pattinson's relentless and resourceful will to make things work out. So it's less about watching the rat in the cage and more about admiring his ingenuity even as he does terrible things. I felt like the ending of the movie was more a sigh of relief than a tragedy. I'm glad I finally got around to watching this. And now it's very late. Today will have to be 4 movies instead of 5. And tomorrow... I'm not sure how many we'll get to because some are quite long and it's up to fate to decide what I watch. Yep, it's another round of Criterion Random Roll... coming tomorrow. |
