Bugonia, black comedy sci-fi, stars Emma Stone and Jesse Plemons.
I give it 8.5/10
Excellent performances by the two leads.
Plot; A conspiracy theorist with a grudge kidnaps the CEO of pharmaceutical co, believing that she is an alien who wants to annihilate earth.

I'd give it closer to a 7.5.
Saw it last night. It never quite found the right tone. It needed to either be more over-the-top or more locked in serious.
The place they left it missed the mark.

Agree about the performances - they're just great to watch.

Paul Thomas Anderson made a high brow slapstick film with One Battle After Another. A radical departure for Leo, who play a paranoid goofball who just happens to a an explosives expert. He needed this after the deadly series Killers of the Flower Moon.

I'm reconciled to the fact that I'll never see My Pal Rusty play Dee Snider in a biopic.

 

[Insidious Von]

Ethan Hawke plays the alcoholic and mentally unstable Lorenz Hart. While Margaret Qualley plays his muse Elizabeth Weiland. The very under-rated Andrew Scott plays Richard Rogers.

Just watched Guillermo Del Toro's Frankenstein, I have to let it simmer.

A Clockwork Orange is an important part of my life. It was my introduction to classical music. I dressed up like Alex DeLarge for a Holloween Party, injured myself, after a visit to a good tashtook the red groovy soon stopped.
