Movies Watched -- Memories of Murder (2003)

Added on by C. Maoxian.

In Korean. 131 minute running time … someone in my Discord group recommended this, but it didn’t grab me at all and I only watched 20 minute before going to fast forward … it was way way too long and was made by the same guy who made Parasite (which I hated) … nothing about Korean culture appeals to me, I don’t think I’ve seen a single Korean movie that I’ve ever liked. This is strange because I like dozens of Japanese and Chinese movies.

I think it fell out.

Movies Watched -- My Little Sister (2020)

Added on by C. Maoxian.

In German. 99 minute running time. Terminal illness movie, what was I thinking?!? Yes, John Farr recommended it (probably because Lars Eidinger’s character is a homosexual), but I should have known better. I did make it 20 minutes in before going to fast forward. Depressing and who wants to see these bourgeois Swiss people and their first-world problems? I sure don’t.
