monster
hirokazu koreda, 2023
recommended for keonho
a while ago i saw that keonho was reading "letters to yves" and from that moment i imagined that he might like this movie. it is a very beautiful story about friendship and first love. it is told from different perspectives and each one changes the way you see the story.
content note: mature themes, brief suggestive content
10 things i hate about you
patrick verona, 1999
recommended for all of cortis
though we’ve all probably seen this one but why not watch it again for the beauty of this piece can never be emphasized enough <3
content note: sexual humor, teen substance use
a cinderella story
mark rosman, 2004
recommended for martin
martin is so 2000s teen movie protagonist plus coers say he reminds them of a young chad michael murray. he has such natural expressions and potential for acting, as we've seen in what you want. him in a teen movie is what the people want to see.
thesis
alejandro amenábar, 1996
recommended for james
a dark psychological thriller, it may be a little more harder than the stuff he has recommended but i believe it’s a must-watch for this genre !!! spanish directors apart from almodóvar also deserve hype
content note: graphic violence, sexual abuse, suicide themes
mary poppins
robert stevenson, 1964
recommended for all of cortis
sometimes all you need is a whimsical adventure singing supercalifragilisticexpialidocious when life gets too hectic. this movie reminds us all not to lose the joy and whimsy of youth.
swing girls
shinobu yaguchi, 2004
recommended for all of cortis
this movie, for me, is the epitome of the phrase “color outside the lines”. this movie is about a group of schoolgirls who accidentally form a jazz band and it is a super fun, dreamy indie movie i think they’d love ♡
life of pi
ang lee, 2012
recommended for james
its about pi's struggle with loss, fear, hope, and resilience as he shares lifeboat with a bengal tiger in the middle of the ocean for days. the film kind of question why you believe in what you believe. it's visually stunning and thought-provoking.
content note: animal death, violence
edward scissorhands
tim burton, 1990
recommended for all of cortis
it’s a popular movie from well known director but very meaningful, especially for sensitive people and that’s why i think they might enjoy it. the theme says a lot about being different and misunderstood by others and feeling like we don’t belong. it also captures how judgemental the society is.
content note: mild violence, sexual content, dark themes
dìdi
sean want, 2024
recommended for all of cortis
dìdi talks a lot about being asian in another country, growing up and navigating life as a teenager, so i think the boys could really relate to it. the photography and style are also chef’s kiss.
content note: strong language, sexual content, substance use, violence
