24 Hour Party People 2002
I haven't watched this in probably over 15 years but it was sooooo very foundational when I first saw it (I think on DVD in 2003 while I was still in high school) in my sentimental journey as a young punk/indie/hipster. Amazing film, glad that it still holds up and hits strong... and yes indeed, God is a Durutti Column fan.

Skinamarink 2022
I respect what other people took from this but it fell flat for me. It's a clever synthesis of many avant-garde effects that have been done very well in other films over the decades (thinking of works by Michael Snow, Clemens Klopfenstein, Philippe Garrel, to name a few) but with cheesy and trope-y horror elements that were obvious and cheap. I'm glad to go to the multiplex and see something different, but if this can get a moment to show in front of audiences, why can't anything truly cinematically bold get a shot as well?
