A bunch of movies I’ve never seen. What’s your reasoning on the picks?

[–] Calirath@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 weeks ago

My - often banal - reasoning for each:

'Ghost' - I love love (when done correctly) and it's been long on my watchlist thanks to its cultural zeitgeist.

'La Collectionneuse' - 'Ma nuit chez Maud' is on my watchlist then I discovered it was part of Rohmer's collection prompting me to watch it in order.

'Secret Admirer' - It's love and I have a tenderness for the 80s making it a simple light choice and watch when browsing.

'Topkapi' - Scrolling through and the name caught my eye as I chose not to enter the palace on a previous trip.

'Love Hurts' - I wanted to view it in theatres but nobody else did so here I am finally streaming it. I'm now relieved no-one wanted to go.
