Listen to me. I’ve consumed more information, whether it be blogs, movies, books, essays, scientific journals, teevee shows, over the past three years than all of you combined. Because of this, I am a supreme authority of all things, especially cinema. The very fact that you have access to my database of knowledge and information is a massive boon for your existence. That being said, since the departure of our dearly beloved tabbed blogger and 12631 trading mate, ChessNWine, iBC has been without a proper movie connoisseur leaving a dreadful vacancy in its wake. I realize that many of you have suffered since this departure in style and culture and I’ve decided to do something about it.
Alas, Le Fly is here to save the day–yet again.
The Talented Mr. Ripley (3.75 bullets out of 5)
This used to be a favorite movie of mine, before I went on a tangent and saw a bunch of films that generally shit on this. But the message is profound and will be relevant for the next thousand years.
NEVER BEFRIEND BEDRAGGLED MICROBES WHO ADMIRE YOU TO THE POINT THAT THEY WILL ONE DAY MURK YOU AND ASSUME YOUR IDENTITY.
The villain in this film, Matt Damon, reminds me of so many people who’ve attempted to destroy me over the years. If you enjoy a modicum of success and have a bunch of inchworms clamoring for your attention, I advise you to watch this movie and take copious notes. It might just save your lives.
Next week we will analyze and discuss my favorite film in French cinema.
