  • Paprika, 2006 - ★★★★½
    This was an absolutely fascinating first watch. Borrowed the 4K from Videodrome Atlanta and popped it in during nap time. Fitting considering the theme of the movie. I love dream logic stories - one of my favorite of all time is Alice in Wonderland - so it’s little surprise that this film spoke to me, […]

Between the nods to other movies (including the blink-and-you’ll-miss-it T-1000 cameo) and the meta commentary, I thoroughly enjoyed this film. It’s not perfect, and some […]
