A first date takes a fateful turn when a racist cop stops the two for a minor traffic violation. The cop ends up dead. They flee, and a days-long chase through the US ensues.
This film is very much fitting regarding the current #blacklivesmatter movement. It showcases on a few occasions how black people feel about the police; and how one might react when the police is rather considered an enemy than a friend.
It’s also a film about loneliness, companionship, trust and love.
Thumbs up!
An absurd film. And pretty funny. Music and sounds are ace. I liked the visuals, too, because the rendition of the used lens(es) looked pretty “classic” to me – and I like “classic”. Apparently the writer/director Quentin Dupieux has some sort of cult status. I didn’t know him until this.

More nostalgia than anything else. Was ok. Wouldn’t watch again.
Given that Nicole is a huge David Lynch fan, it’s surprising I haven’t watched this in full until recently. And I thoroughly enjoyed it. Great Lynch-y-en atmosphere and strangeness. Would watch again.
Well-written and filmed Cluedo/whodunnit-type movie. With star-cast. Awesome!

I bought my first bass guitar: an Epiphone Thunderbird. Should have done this earlier, because it’s so much fun!
I seem to really enjoy Jim Jarmusch’s movies. This was no exception. It’s an episode film about Taxi drivers in various famous cities in the same night at the same time. Not all episodes were equally good, but overall a very entertaining endeavour. Armin Mueller-Stahl in the New York episode is hilarious!
Now-hobo takes revenge for the killing of his parents, after the killer has been released from prison. He’s a complete amateur – yet very bad-ass – and gets into a fight with the killer’s whole family. Suspenseful. Thumbs up!
Remarkable movie that manages to be very funny while also addressing several very serious topics such as rape, murder, suicide and racism – and still dealing with them in a serious way. Top!
Said “man” faked his death and now terrorises his (ex-)wife. Not really bad. But not really good, either. It’s probably a little better than I thought it would be. Still: not really recommended.
My photo selection for October 2019.
Back to “normal” life.

Monika Helfer erzählt die Geschichte ihrer Großmutter – die sie nie persönlich kennengelernt hat – die Anfang des 20. Jahrhunderts mit ihrer Familie abseits eines kleines Dorfes in Österreich lebten und von allen dort nur „Die Bagage“ genannt wurden.
Die damalige Zeit war sowieso schon nicht einfach. Und dann noch abseits zu leben und sein eigenes Ding durchzuziehen um so mehr.
Insgesamt eine bemerkenswerte Geschichte (im doppelten Sinne), kurzweilig erzählt auf 150 Seiten.
