What is the best moment to watch movies? For me, it's Friday night, kicking off the holiday with a film—the best reward for myself. I'm sharing five of my private holiday movie picks with you: Truffaut's classic love triangle, "Jules and Jim" (or Shoot the Piano Player, based on context of 'classic love triangle' in Truffaut's work), the warm and delicate "The Passengers of the Night", "One Fine Morning", "Return to Seoul" which accompanies Freddie on her search for roots, and "March: The Southern South", looking back at Taiwan in March 1947.
Daughter, wife, mother... Before being shaped into these roles, a woman first belongs to herself. Let's explore women's true selves beneath the surface of societal expectations. These rarely spoken private thoughts are the most authentic life stories.
The city is a large map condensed onto our wall, a beautiful dream propelling us forward in our minds. We've all, at some point, relied on cities within films—their visuals acting like a museum of urban fragments. They allow us to escape the confines of everyday anxieties, focusing instead on urban wanderings, feeling the overlap of new discoveries and old routines. Space and city are intimately connected to the protagonist. If you haven't written the travelogue you hoped for, nor taken truly satisfying travel photos, then let the scenes unfold from your couch. Through film, we can once again confirm that the world is a bit detached, yet also full of new revelations about time, and the wellspring of surging desire keeps us relying on it.
