Dolores Claiborne (Taylor Hackford, 1995) -- 3/5
I saw a list ranking best Stephen King adaptions and this was in the top 10 or 20, I forget which. David Strathairn's character is repugnant beyond the pale... kinda took me out of the movie. I guess I prefer portrayals of domestic abuse to be more nuanced? (e.g. Alexander Skarsgard in Big Little Lies.)

This Is Where I Leave You (Shawn Levy, 2014) -- 2.5/5
Read the Jonathan Tropper novel first --typical white male boo hoo hooey. 

Raw (Julia Docournau, 2017) -- 2/5
What!! A vet school filled with ONLY super hot, sexy, lascivious students? Also, why are they only working on horses and cows? What about dogs and cats? Anyway it was gross. 

The Mist (Frank Darabont, 2007) -- 3/5
This was also on the list of best Stephen King adaptations. Decent romp, sad ending. 

Girls Season 6 (Lena Dunham, 2017) -- 4/5
Ended with a whimper, not a bang. Which is weird because this show had so much banging in it it was like watching porn at times. 

Ghost in the Shell (Rupert Sanders, 2017) -- 1/5
They really need to stop hiring white people to play Asian characters. Mess of a movie. I only watched because of Juliette Binoche. 

Deepwater Horizon (Peter Berg, 2016) -- 2/5
Another American Joe Hero movie. Forgettable. 

Frontline: Sick Around the World (Jon Palfreman, 2008) -- 5/5
It'd be nice if Congress watched this and took notes and maybe get a few new ideas.

The Invention of Lying (Ricky Gervais, 2009) -- 2/5
First 20 minutes is hilarious, then it drags.

Parting Glances (Bill Sherwood, 1986) -- 2/5

American Pastoral (Ewan McGregor, 2016) -- 2/5
Can anyone recommend a good Phillip Roth novel for me? I haven't read any of his work yet. Should I just start with Goodbye, Columbus?

Taxidermia (Gyorgy Palfi, 2006) -- 2/5

The Innocents (Ann Fontaine, 2016) -- 2/5

The Infiltrator (Brad Furman, 2016)-- 2/5

Brothers (Susan Bier, 2005)-- 4/5

Frantz (Francois Ozone, 2017) -- 2.5/5

Song to Song (Terrence Malick,, 2017) -- 2.5/5
Better than Knight of Cups, but that's not saying much is it?

My Man Godfrey (Gregory La Cava, 1936) -- turned it off

Christmas in Connecticut (Peter Godfrey, 1945) -- 3.5/5

How to Marry A Millionaire (Jean Negulesco, 1953) -- turned it off

Sabrina (Billy Wilder, 1954) -- 3/5

Guys and Dolls (Joseph L. Mankiewicz, 1955) -- 2/5
Marlon Brando's number was awful. Wtf why is this a classic? 

Working Girls (Lizzie Borden, 1986) -- 2/5

Tampopo (Juzo Itami, 1986) -- turned it off

Silence (Martin Scorcese, 2016) -- 1/5
If you were to ask, I couldn't tell you what happened in this movie or who the characters were.

Desert Hearts (Donna Dietch, 1985) -- 2/5

Staying Vertical (Alain Guiraudie, 2017) -- 3/5
Has all the trappings of the kind of French cinema I like: provincial France and accompanying townies, the explicit and inexplicable, temporal languishing that still maintains direction.

The Red Turtle (Michael Dudok de Wit, 2017) -- 2/5

Catfight (Onur Tukel, 2017) -- 3/5
Second-longest fight scene after the Roddy Piper and Keith David's in They Live. Nowhere near as amazing/memorable though. 

Re-watched Tiny Furniture (Lena Dunham, 2010) -- 4/5

It (Andre Muschietti, 2017) -- 3/5
It was thrilling to see it on the big screen, but It doesn't stay with you in any way once you exit the theater. Maybe It's the nostalgia talking, but I prefer the original. R.I.P. Tim Curry. 

The Last House on the Left (Wes Craven, 1972) -- 2/5

Devil (John Erick Dowdle, 2010) -- 3/5

Insidious (James Wan, 2011) -- 3/5

Fences (Denzel Washington, 2016) -- 3/5

Inserts (John Byrum, 1974) -- turned it off
