Movie Quote of the Day – Life Partners, 2014 (dir. Susanna Fogel)
Tim: Well, as long as you’ve seen Lebowski.
Paige: Uh, well, I’ve seen the first half of it.
Tim: What? Are you saying you watched the first half of The Big Lebowski, then shut it off?
Paige: I–I feel like you’re treating me as though I just told you that I’m a sex offender.
Tim: Wow. That–I mean, this is so much worse, I have to tell you.
Movie Quote of the Day – Eve’s Bayou, 1997 (dir. Kasi Lemmons)
Mozelle Batiste Delacroix: Life is filled with goodbyes, Eve, a million goodbyes, and it hurts every time. Sometimes, I feel like I’ve lost so much, I have to find new things to lose. All I know is, there must be a divine point to it all, and it’s just over my head, that when we die, it will all come clear and we’ll say, “So that was the damn point.” And sometimes, I think there’s no point at all, and maybe that’s the point. All I know is most people’s lives are a great disappointment to them and no one leaves this earth without feeling terrible pain. And if there is no divine explanation at the end of it all, well. . .that’s sad.
A Year With Women: March 2015 in Films
March was an interesting month. I didn’t see very many films on the big screen directed by women, but I did see quite a few films on the big screen! That is, because of the TCM Classic Film Festival, I took a bit of a moratorium from A Year With Women. I go to TCMFF every year and I just couldn’t skip it. That said, this month’s favorites will include a least one film not written or directed by a woman. I also managed to watch quite a few films that I didn’t really care for (one that I loved so much it’s ridiculous!) As always, a full list of the films I watched in March can be found after the cut.
