If you liked Uncut Gems or you just can't make it out the theater to see it, watch Good Time.  It's on Amazon Prime.

Another one from the Safdie bros.  Very similar to Uncut Gems.

Can't wait to see Uncut Gems. If it's even HALF as good as Happy Gilmore...wow!!!

For real, though, go see Good Time. It never lets up and thrusts you into the most stressful night of a dude's life. Acting, editing, directing are incredible.

Gonna see Parasite tomorrow.

So good that halfway through I was mentally scheduling my next viewing.  It's the movie Us was hyped to be, IMO.

The friend I saw it with was on his 2nd viewing. He also made the same point about Us to me yesterday.

What a sly, brilliant screenplay and why it's nominated for both Best Film and Best International Feature Film is beyond me.  Imagine if it won Best Film but not Best 'International' film.  Hollywood will probably wimp out and give it a token 'best foreign film' award.

Best Picture is based on the nominations of the voting members of the Academy, of which there are several thousand. Best International Feature Film candidates are nominated by their respective countries' version of the Academy - each country gets to put one movie a year forward, hence why you never see a country represented more than once in the same year. It's highly unlikely that a movie would win Best Picture but not BIFF given the voters are the same; Best Picture has the whole field to go at, while BIFF only has the international nominees. Winning Best Picture but not BIFF despite being nominated for it would be like winning the Super Bowl despite not having won the Conference Final.

Not really that different than an animated film up for Best Picture and Best Animated. 

I saw 1917 the other day and I'll be happy to see either that or Parasite win.
