Some absolute favorites:

(more to come)

Kinsey 

(2004)
The movie that I rewatched the most. For me it’s the ultimate hero’s journey, someone turning their disadvantages into something beautiful - with lot of work & #science! - then shares it with the world and makes a huge impact.

‍Memento

(2000)
Leaving notes for our future selves struck a chord, how we awkwardly try to navigate life and make sense of our own thoughts.

Groundhog Day 

(1993)
Similar to memento in theme for me, a more lighthearted take on the repeating loop we call life.

Valhalla Rising 

(2009)
Brutal, stuck with me for years. Raises deep questions and emotions often with silence, pissed me off first time I saw it. Feels like the most accurate depiction of the viking life, seems very real, raw.Not for the faint of heart. One of the early ones of Mads Mikkelsen.

Waking Life

(2001)
This movie is such a trip. Watch the trailer to get a taste. The movie is much better than the trailer though.

12 Angry Men 

‍(1957)
“They don’t make them like they used to”. Had a huge impact on me, watched in my teens.

Whiplash

(2014)
Newest favorite, on the theme of obsession, tension. Only watched it recently, worth a watch.
