Endings, Beginnings I will probably end up watching after a glass or wine or two, for two obvious reasons.

I didn't realise that Force Majure was about a Swedish couple, it may be the light thing that I'm looking for.

I've been trying to watch those films that I always meant to. Also as part of my Masters I am researching various film industries, so watching projects from those regions such as Scottish Gaelic-speaking films, Iceland, the Faroe Islands, Tasmania.

If anyone has any recommendations of countries/regional cinema I should check out please shout!

Thank you for this! I've also been looking into the cinema of Nunavut so the Canadian Indigenous cinema is of interest but let me explore what else you've provided as that's amazing.

I have a friend who had a PHD in film policy and she has been leading me to see films outside of my usual viewing habits and I'm missing that during this pandemic!

glad to help you in your search! There are so many great and interesting films out there that should be shared

I feel like I dodged a bullet with switching out endings beginnings back at tiff

I've not been great about watching movies lately. Rewatched Miss Stevens after making last week's post, since my husband had never seen it before, and he really liked it, which is unusual because he doesn't really like slice of life indies. Lily Rabe is underrated - I wish she was in more things.

I wanted to see Selah and the Spades at AFI Fest but the timing didn't work out, glad I can easily check it out now.

I haven't even heard about The Quarry, but I love Michael Shannon so I'll have to see that. Of the others that I've seen on this list I really liked The Lighthouse (will have to watch this again with subtitles, lol) and Force Majeure (might rewatch as I haven't seen it since its original release).

I've mainly been watching BoJack Horseman since I'd never seen it before! I'm also in the middle of a LOTR rewatch (extended editions, obviously). It's been maybe three years since I last saw them and that's definitely the longest I've gone without watching them since they came out; it's so comforting to watch them again.

Oh, and I also rewatched 10 Cloverfield Lane for the first time since it was in theaters and was pleased that it was just as good as I remembered! I remembered it quite well but was still completely on edge the whole time lol
