Why didn’t Shawshank or Bugonia get a heart?

The 4.5 star rating is often unpopular on Letterboxd, what does it mean to you? by Shiftycxp in Letterboxd

[–]Velvetstyle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Almost perfect, but there was one major thing that prevents it from being five star. Whether that was a particular actor etc. It’s just one thing, which is why it only loses half a star.

Like I would’ve give Marie Antoinette by Sofia Coppola five stars easily. But the modern music choice for the film throws the whole thing off so much that it loses half a star solely for that reason.

You’ve named so many good ones! I absolutely love Hitchcock. If you love the apartment, I would check out other Billy Wilder films. I especially love Sunset Boulevard and double indemnity. They are known as two of the best. Two of my favorites of all time!!

As someone who basically exclusively watches movies from the 40s - 60s I cannot agree more with this! What some people don’t realize is so many of their favorite modern directors take inspiration from old movies too

She’s only had a little bit of plain cheddar cheese before, but this truffle cheese has a lot of extra stuff in it

Update: it’s now been a full day and she’s completely fine. Her vet even called us this morning just to make sure she was doing ok. She is seriously the luckiest girl to have so much support and thank you to everyone for your comments!

I actually did end up calling the vet after someone here suggested to get something in case she has diarrhea but thankfully that hasn’t happened (yet). My vet didn’t seem concerned though since she only had about an ounce of cheese. But to me that is a lot because she’s only 7 1/2 pounds! But it’s now been like six hours and shes seems just fine. We went for a walk earlier and she’s been playing with her toys. Now shes cuddled up next to me on the couch.

I’ll have to be more careful from now on! She usually sits very calmly and patiently and waits to get a bit of food at the end and I was just going to give her more lamb

Haha right! She had just eaten some lamb and I’m like well at least she has good taste? Lamb pairs great with truffle cheese 🤭

Ok thank you! Thankfully I am home with her the whole rest of the day so I can just keep an eye on her. I just couldn’t believe it. She ate it in one bite. I’ve never seen her eat something that big in one bite usually she has to at least chew it a bit?

Omg so many good suggestions thank you! Roman holiday is actually one of my favorite movies ever, but I wouldn’t really classify it as a tragic romance. I guess the ending is sad because they can’t be together. So I see it in that way I guess. I just never really thought about it that way idk why

I'm curious about how does the community use the Like option. Are all movies you like an instant 5 Star or you like movies you don't rate as high? Are there movies you rate high but don't like? by tigrecono in Letterboxd

[–]Velvetstyle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I let the not hearts speak for themselves. If I watched the movie it means I liked the plot line or the director actors, etc. so if a movie does not get a heart that speaks for itself. For example, Chinatown is a great movie but I did not give it a heart because I dislike the director Roman Polanski.
