I’m really struggling to determine whether or not I like this film or would recommend it. Because The Children’s Hour is in many ways objectively good but also deeply homophobic, sexist and made me sad.

Blue Gate Crossing is one of few movies that emphasizes friendship over romantic relationships. But even if there were more, Blue Gate Crossing would still be exceptional for its charm, relatable protagonist and strong performances. 7.8/10
I was under the impression Jack and Diane was a movie with WLW and werewolves. It is not. I am not even sure what it is other than not good. 3.8/10
Basically if you wanna see this movie for lesbian sex, it’s worth it. If you’re neutral to negative on that aspect though, Below Her Mouth has nothing else to offer. 5.9/10
There’s a great deal of things that happen in The Favourite. Some of it is queer love, some of it is politics, some of it is unknowable to me because director Yorgos Lanthimos is a weird dude. All of it is very, very good. 9.4/10
It made me a little sad to watch this movie because I really wanted to like this movie and it was trying its hardest. Sadly, for as hard as Joe + Belle tried, it didn’t succeed on any level. 3.4/10
Show Me Love is a rare, accurate depiction of teenagers both in terms to how the characters are written and also because its cast of actors genuinely look like they belong in high school. Achieving both these feats makes Show Me Love a very rare film indeed. 7.8/10
Objectively I shouldn’t like this movie. I hate the main character, it’s sexist and also it completely changes direction halfway through. And yet, I found Fascination to be a very enjoyable movie. There’s no accounting for taste, I guess. 5.7/10
Despite my preference towards horror films and WLW films, Make a Wish is so poor that even my aggressive bias towards WLW horror movies can save it. 2.5/10
Passion is a movie I like far more than it deserves. This movie is frustrating, uneven and confusing. Unfortunately, I’m basically a magpie and this movie is the cinematic equivalent of a shiny thing. 6.1/10
