The suspenseful, classic sci-fi film 2001: A Space Odyssey, directed and written by the legendary Stanley Kubrick, released in 1968, is, to me, a film with many significant layers.
Firstly, it is partly a view on mankind's abusive nature with tools, ...

To me, the sci-fi action film Blade Runner (released in 1982 and directed by Ridley Scott) and Blade Runner 2049 (directed by Denis Villeneuve), along with all their corresponding short films, are very simple films that, at the same time, leave you t...

The biographical drama short film Corazón, directed by John Hillcoat and written by Kelley Sane, released in 2018, is, to me, a very clever short film. It explores two perspectives on the heart itself—hence the name.
Firstly, I feel it shows very cle...

The romantic fantasy drama film Edward Scissorhands, released in 1990 and directed by Tim Burton, is, to me, very simply and strangely enough, a film about the director himself. Considering that Tim Burton has said Edward Scissorhands is his most per...

The romantic drama film The Painted Veil, directed by John Curran and released in 2006, adapted from the book of the same name published in 1925, is, to me, a very simple movie that elegantly presents a philosophical idea: sometimes we do not truly k...

To me, the neo-noir psychological drama film Taxi Driver, directed by Martin Scorsese and written by Paul Schrader, released in 1976, is an analysis of the day-to-day lives of people in a city—most specifically New York—particularly its lower-income ...

To me, the Japanese anime family friendly fantasy film Kiki’s Delivery Service, directed by Hayao Miyazaki and released in 1989, based on the novel of the same name by Eiko Kadono, is, very simply, a coming-of-age story. It explores the major life ch...
