I'll see Call Me By Your Name eventually, it just hasn't been made available yet to rent. I think it's coming soon though on Amazon Video. I'm just hoping it isn't another disappointment but still good-ish movie like Lady Bird or Darkest Hour.

She's an adequate director. I didn't see anything special here in her eye for storytelling that Sofia Coppalla didn't already do 18 years ago.

First time I ever bought the wrong damn region.

*buys again* ... *cries*
At least they're both pretty inexpensive. Would sting mightily if I blew like 30 bucks on the wrong region and it was out of print. :p

likely that she won't give up directing, given the acclaim for ladybird. hopefully she improves.

Many. But I noticed "mature audiences only" and I went "Oh, fuck." :p

There's a chance I own another DVD from a different region, but a very tiny chance.

Any HMFers in New Zealand? :p

Deciding between Possession (1981) and The House by the Cemetery (1981). Both would be new watches.

I started it about 15 minutes ago, actually. Logged back on here when I decided.

10 minutes in and I already relate to Sam Neill's character so damn much. :p
