Inside Job
March 30, 2016 Watched on DVD First Time Viewing I've watched this documentary for an Political Economy class and this is the type of film that requires an understanding of economics to truly understand. Besides that, the film goes in-depth on the '08 economic crisis that started in the United States before inflecting the international climate as a whole. The crew managed to interview some strong economic figures whom relate to or were directly responsible for what happened in the '08 crisis. Some of my favorite moments in the film is when the guy interviewing this big wigs directly calls them out on their bullshit. It's cathartic to see. However, the overall tone is cynical in showing how the irresponsibility of the government caused a damaging crisis that ruined many people's lives, lost billions of dollars, and seemingly resulted in no significant changes. But does present the possibility of future generations learning from today's mistakes in the hopes that this crisis will never happen again. But then again, that's what they thought about the Great Depression...

The Silence of the Lambs
March 31, 2016 Watched on DVD Rewatched I definitely heard a whole lot of accolades about this movie, especially with it winning every major Oscar category. But still, I was a bit surprised by how high quality this cinematic experience was. Full of incredible performances, disturbing moments of horror, and thrilling moments of tension. Jodie Foster gives a rather underrated performance as Clarice Starling. Foster's presence and subtleties was greatly missed in the sequels. Equally phenomenal was Ted Levine's performance as Buffalo Bill who honestly steals the show with his freaky depiction of a disturbed serial killer who wants to be a woman. Honestly, I will admit I found Anthony Hopkin's performance as Hannibal Lecter to be a tad overrated. It is certainly an iconic performance but I was not quite as intimidated or unnerved by the man as many others have. This film has one of the most well-constructed stories I've ever seen with a whole bunch of layers, symbolism, and really uses the visual language to explore its' story. This is a classic modern-horror film full of brilliant storytelling, incredibly disturbing content, and phenomenal performances.
