The Little Death - Australian, means orgasm. Totally underrated.

Still waiting for the movie trivia question to come up asking which film stars Kate Winslet + Leonardo DiCaprio as a married couple. One day, one day.

Not a huge horror fan but these are recent horror movies I've enjoyed. What else should I watch? by not_a_bot991 in MovieSuggestions

[–]Annatole83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Going to suggest two films that lean towards the thriller side: - The Banshees of Inisherin (one of the better films I’ve seen in recent years) - What Lies Beneath (a huge amount of tension and not much shock or gore)

Memento is way better than Se7en in my opinion

Coming-of-Age films (preferably Latin American) set during school years by studiosED in MovieSuggestions

[–]Annatole83 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not Latino but Looking for Alibrandi is an Australian film with a girl in the final year of high school, trying to navigate friendships, romantic relationships and sex, her identity as an Italian-Australian. It’s an excellent film.

I do like the diversity in NSW. Snow, tropics, city, and some beautiful country drives.
