(May 29, 2023 ● Oslin Pierrette) Society doesn’t address the soul. Being a natural human, full of feelings, in many cases you’re not a good fit for society. It can be a conflict of interest. You need to shut that down, and adopt docileness to fit in and be an active member of society. Some… Continue reading Aloners(2021) Analysis: Society Doesn’t Address The Soul, So Now I’m Stuck In This Empty Meaningless Desolation I Call Life
(May 14, 2023 ● Oslin Pierrette) I did everything right, I did everything they told me to do. And it didn’t work. They lied to me.

(May 4, 2023 ● Oslin Pierrette) Is there a humane way to rob a bank? Not the process, but the reason. Can you decide to rob a bank, and still hold a sense of humanity with you?

(May 2, 2023 ● Oslin Pierrette) What I got from this film was Likability vs Expertise. You have one character Tom, who can be a dunderfart sometimes, but has a likable image. Then you have Jane, she’s obsessive, passionate, and consumed by her craft. Two completely different people and paths, but they landed in the… Continue reading Broadcast News(1987) Analysis: Likability vs. Expertise.

(Apr 29, 2023 ● Oslin Pierrette) This film was a great one, I have this currently on my 10 greatest films. I loved the dialogue, what this film was speaking to.

(Apr. 21, 2023 ● Oslin Pierrette) First Watch: I honestly don’t have many things to say. I will watch again though. Wow. That was different.

(Mar. 24, 2023 ● Oslin Pierrette) It was very interesting to see a small encapsulated model of classism. The callousness, the greed, the incompetency, the bureaucratic aspects posed by Snowpiercer. Like always, the underbelly of the world is referred to as freeloaders, as no good lazy people. Looked at as a bad batch of humans.… Continue reading Are We Just Imprisoned By an Idea?: Snowpiercer(2013) Analysis
(Feb. 14, 2023 ● Oslin Pierrette) David Cronenberg is one of the masters at creating their own genre. Like these films live in their own world. This technocracy existential crisis film genre.

Two films that feel very related to each other.… Continue reading Videodrome (1983) & eXistenZ (1999) Review: Where is Technology Taking Humans. The Simulacrum.

When his parents saw that, he… Continue reading The Fabelmans(2022): The Privilege to Believe in your Dreams, and Believe in the Ability to Create.
(Nov. 27, 2022 ● Oslin Pierrette) Something that comes to mind about this film is My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy, not the album, just the title. I always loved that title because it really speaks to the unspoken side of humans. I think there’s an understanding, there is a dark universe that goes on in… Continue reading Eyes Wide Shut(1999) Review: Dark Twisted Fantasies
