[inside out] i think this is the first time that pixar made me dislike a main character lol, the way joy dismissed sadness like that. though i guess it's an allegory about how we confuse sadness with depression
[birdman] since i needed something to cleanse my brain of the depressingness of 霸王別姬, i searched for a comedy and i've heard birdman won the oscars before...THIS IS NOT A COMEDY.
the plotlines go all over the place and don't connect with each other in the end, but the choreography is pretty interesting. not as depressing as the above, but still quite heavy
[imitation game] for the sake of narrative it had to jump back and forth in time. for people who didn't know who turing was, this can be quite confusing eh. it's alright as a biographical film with added drama
plus, it's not 隱形 in that film at all, Farewell My Concubine is totally a gay film (i lol at the posters that deceptively put 鞏俐 there in a prominent position hinting that she's the "concubine")
