It was just such a painfully average directed, scripted, acted movie that it's clear it only won because it went after the Church.

Zodiac was ten times this movie and it wasn't nominated for shit. Memories of Murder shits all over this.

your favorite movie

>>83936157
Ya dude exactly my sentiments.

>>83936188
I'm spiritual myself but there was hardly any spirit in the film itself. Sure it touched on religion briefly but it was pretty skimmed over imho in favour of centering on journalism and the legal system, and looking at it though that lens. I get that people in the business have to be stern and professional but it lacked so much emotion that it lost a lot of the power it could have potentially held emotively.

Definitive list coming through

Every tarkovsky movie ever made
