Never heard of it, I don't know if that's because people don't smoke them or if I'm just sheltered

I kinda have a similar thing with Russian where I'm not capable of watching anything that came out during the past 30 years, the sounds of the language embarrass me somehow. But that's also cause everything I've seen sucked, with the exception of 2-3 masterworks. Don't have this reaction to Soviet-era cinema.

Her attempts at speaking French are hilariously cute

That's interesting, about soviet era films. The acting in old films is different of course, but I guess that can't explain everything because it's not really true for films from the 70s

Haven't even seen Come and See yet, the famous WW2 film by Shepitko's husband. Looking forward to seeing all three.

Come and see is good but so overblown and relentless it can be exhausting. I like her film much more, more subtle and finely observed. You don't need much spectacle to show the horrors of war. The scene in the barn is still imprinted in my mind. Super tense and powerful.

As far as I'm aware, Europeans don't smoke blunts, that's an American invention.

The European joint is tobacco sprinkled with pot. Rolled in normal rolling papers (Rizla).

I was a bit put-off when a German dude put my hash in his cigarette. Wtf. Eww. I even smoked cigarettes at the time. Nicotine ruins the flavor and gives you a headache while you're just trying to catch a buzz. No thanks.

I can't stand blunts either. Blehhhh.

Nomadland - Cloe Zhao (2020)

Best American film I've seen in years. Blown away by the naturalistic performances she got out of non-actors. Great soundtrack, great cinematography, totally controlled, precise and effective. Subdued yet very emotional.

Don't look up. It was fine.

Salo or 120 Days of Sodom - Damn powerful people suck

Bestiaire - Tons of gorgeous shots that really put you into the mindset of an animal.

Beyond the Black Rainbow - Scifi dude and his daughter do hella drugs and attain upper consciousness n ****. Her not by choice. Pretty trippy and rad but defo had corny and unnecessarily slow points.
