Wait, what even is this??

Here’s the link—take your pick. Out of this bunch, my absolute faves have gotta be Tatum O'Neal in
Paper Moon,
Natalie Portman in Léon: The Professional, Linda Blair in The Exorcist,
and Jodie Foster in Taxi Driver.
Also, totally missed some gems on this list—like Giorgio Cantarini in Life is Beautiful
and Asa Butterfield in The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas. There are plenty more where those came from, obviously!

Uff, how can you even say that? Honestly, Let is my absolute favorite movie—but hey, whatever works for you...

Honestly, I told myself I’d finally sit down and knock out Avatar—totally convinced I'd get through it—but my heart just isn't in it. It's one of those things where you want to want it, but you just don't. I already knew I wouldn't vibe with it, though. I’ve never been much for that fantasy stuff or movies that basically just lean on special effects to do all the heavy lifting.

Any movies you’ve started once or even a few times but just couldn't finish—and probably never will?
For me, it's stuff like:

8 1/2
Lost in Translation
Lost in Translation
Seven Samurai
Good Shepherd
Nomadland

I think La Dolcita and Fanny and Alexander might count too, but I'm not totally sure.

The truth is, some are just straight-up boring—others aren't bad, they're just unnecessarily dragged out
and some have way too much talking/dialogue for my taste.

Marathon Runners Run a Victory Lap

Gonna catch the game tonight—I'll let you know what I think!

Not sure if I'm right here, but I’d say they fit perfectly under neo-noir—and honestly, they’re my all-time favorites—Taxi Driver and Se7en
