Cry Me A River directed by Jia Zhangke - 7.5/10
I don't really feel like I can rate this short film since I didn't pay attention as much as I should, I'm going to re-watch it soon. But it still left a good impression on me artistically.
Winter's Bone directed by Debra Granik - 8/10
This was a re-watch, I enjoyed it much more this time around as I paid more attention to it. The lead actors were great, and I love the style of the cinematography of this film.
April Story directed by Shunji Iwai - 9/10
This was a great short film, it was a very simple story of a girl going off to college. I love just about every frame of this picture, I just feel it works stronger when it doesn't try to be a love story (which is almost tacked on in the end).
Dial M For Murder directed by Alfred Hitchcock - 10/10
The master of suspense does a perfect job of adapting a one-set play to the big screen. This is just a perfect movie to me as its plot unravels it gets even more enjoyable to follow it. Although the film uses great imagery from the few sets, it also has the great surreal court scene which I loved.
