Aan het begin van The #Banshees of #Inisherin wordt (volgens mij) een fragment van deze betoverende Bulgaarse muziek gedraaid, van Le mystère des voix bulgares uit 1984.

Latest #movie watches:

Bullet Train - daft, silly, fun. I love the interlinking characters and their stories in this kind of thing. Particular mention for Brian Tyree Henry's 'Lemon'. #bullettrain #bullettrainmovie #thomasthetankengine

The Banshees of Inisherin - like, WTF? Like, what the!?! Totally loved this, not what I was expecting. Dark, simple (yet deep) and excellent. Big tip of the hat to both Brendan Gleeson and Colin Farrell for their performances. #bansheesofinisherin #inisherin

I really wanted to like this movie, but it wouldn’t let me.

I thought I was prepared; enjoyed “In Bruge” and loved “Seven Psychopaths”. Haven’t watched McDonagh’s other work. Saw a lot of interviews with Director & Principals leading up to this.

The cinematography is stunning. Cast, performances, and production are excellent. Editing is skillful, but too much Fellini-esque imagery for me. Music is a bit heavy-handed. The writing is relentlessly bleak. Moments of warmth and (dark) humour are rare. The tiny character arc payoff from watching the whole story was not worth the effort. I had to stop and resume watching over three days because it just made me angry.

My life experiences and tastes just do not resonate with what this movie delivers. I suspect that they did so much promotional work because they knew it was challenging for some people.

#banshees of #inisherin spoiler-free review:

You know how sometimes the sunlight is just perfect and bright and fills you with joy?

The sunlight was great after I left the theater where this movie was playing.

It's heart-wrenching and beautiful and you should all see it.

Movie 26/52 for 2022. I liked this a lot and Colin Farrell is brilliant in it. Also enjoyed West of Ireland location spotting. Felt it didn't quite explain why the Gleeson character was being such a bollox. Though maybe simply living on an island off Ireland in the 1920s was more than enough explanation in itself #banshees #inisherin #movies
