30 Years… 30 Movies

This list contains one film that encompasses every year of life I have already experienced, the rest are pure speculation on my part about what these future years may contain…

Kantara

It is this closeness that makes Kantara so difficult to situate within the familiar stories of Indian cinema, where religion is often rendered as something aestheticised and made legible for a broad audience.

Scooby Doo (2002) & Daphne’s Red Ascot

My first memory of ‘body swapping’ media was in 2009, sitting across from my pink PlayStation 2, gleefully watching the first live-action Scooby Doo (2002) movie on an archaic Panasonic TV.

Memory: A Practical Guide

Find a stimulus, or rather let it find you.
Be transported through space and time, find yourself in that moment again.
Linger in it for a minute more.

In Defence of RomComs

Its pessimistic parable, that modern dating is superficial (duh!), defies characterisation. Let me explain.

The Allure of Ultraviolence

These works prompt a deeper question of whether our artistic fascination with violence is a glamorisation, a critique, or a coping mechanism in an ultraviolent world.

“There, staring out at me, was Magritte’s Les Mémoires d’un Saint (1960). In the centre of an intangible space, a ring of rich red curtains stood upright, drawn at the middle to reveal the sky.”

Being Killed To The Limits of Eternity: Salo, or the 120 Days of Sodom

Pasolini cleverly subverts the cinematic techniques of excitement to be in service of pure horror.

Scene of the crime

Art, in its purest sense, is to create, while policing, is to destroy.

With teeth: Why girls love vampires

Suspended between death and life, the vampire occupies a liminal space wherein typical boundaries can be blurred.

Building Morticia

Unlike Vampira and Elvira, Morticia is a wife and mother, but it goes without saying that she represents much more than that. She wants it all, and refreshingly, she never asks why she shouldn’t have it.

Twinning

Talk to any twin long enough and you find shared experiences emerge — the same plot points and canon events that carry across people and shape who they are.
