CALIFORNIA SPLIT (dir. Robert Altman, 1974)
šæ Itās a buddy comedy! Back from when you could still make a good film that was also funny. Thereās a real warmth and humanity here and you could probably spend the whole movie watching all the finely observed background characters and speculating about their lives.
šæ Itās a Christmas film! Decorations are clearly visible throughout though it is never directly mentioned and these dudes definitely arenāt about to go home to their families or anything like that.
šæ Itās dated! 1970ās American culture is terrifying!! Thereās also a very of-its-time portrayal of a trans woman, but it didnāt make me want to go piss on Altmanās grave or anything like that.
Super underrated and easily top ten Christmas film.
