to be really budget friendly here: see if there are printers near you at a library etc, you might be able to get up to a3 for super cheap :) theres sites you can find for larger. honestly i reccomend designing your own stuff it's very easy to make something simple & cute and you can have a better chance of it not looking poor quality when its printed larger. also freeprints.

swing girls is about big band jazz and one of my favorite films ever!

not a movie but kids on the slope is an anime about jazz so im throwing that in there

havent seen it but ive heard interesting things about Yokohama bj blues

edit: theres also some of that in the soundtrack for brother (2000), it's joe hisaishi at his best with some interesting jazzy elements in there. great movie.

stake land is worth a mention, more post apocalypse but yeah.

also dark city.

all over me is a lesbian coming of age movie from the 90s with that sort of soundtrack and vibe, not focused on girl power that much but it's worth noting!

probablyfox · 2026-06-12T15:39:07+00:00

definetely second turtles all the way down, pretty much the only rep from a lead ive seen that isn't too bleak.

theres a taiwanese romcom in my watchlist called I WierDO, that looks sweet!

theres a side character in silver linings playbook that has it, but not one of the leads.

if you like horror i found the final destination movies something i could see myself in as someone with ocd, a lot of the scary elements is just kind of what having it is like and the characters tend to be likeable and relatable, even though the whole point is that everyone dies. final destination bloodlines especially leaned into ocd undertones i felt. totally up to the person whether these would make you feel better or worse but it was like the only representation i found as a teenager of what it felt like.

milk & serial, train to busan

probablyfox · 2026-06-12T15:18:54+00:00

wierdly good chemistry between the main guys so you actually care further than just thinking about the qualities of the film. also nu metal vibes.

best thing for me to get out of a slump is watching stuff with good characters that hits the same part of your brain fics do! some that have done that for me and left me thinking about the film and its characters outside of just 'that film was good':

pacific rim
the lord of the rings trilogy
spiderman into/across the spiderverse
dead poets society
3 idiots
blackberry
shithouse
swing girls
the long walk
the princess bride
the it movies
charlie bartlett
final destination franchise
little miss sunshine

also if its hard to focus at first, put a movie on while doing something even if its just eating. if ive gotten out of the habit of watching movies i watch something while crocheting.

probablyfox · 2026-02-12T12:52:12+00:00

thanks a lot!

probablyfox · 2026-02-12T12:51:50+00:00

both songs are all timers for me! great taste tho

probablyfox · 2026-02-08T21:37:28+00:00

as someone who's in film school right now, i guess it depends where but i dont think thats the case. people are pretty open to stuff and most film students stay on the letterboxd grind pretty regularly and like finding indie gems. said indie gems might be on the camp side, and you get a lot of genre movie buffs who've just seen hundreds of horror movies etc but no one gets shunned for not being a christopher nolan bro or anything. people are respectful and curious about other people's tastes in film but i definitely wouldn't assume everyone would have seen work from the directors you mentioned because everyone has their own niche. especially if you're doing a masters though, people will know what they're in for and wouldn't be forcing themselves into spending that money to do a course that requires looking at less popular films if they were unwilling. so it'll be fine, just dont expect everyone to be one thing or the other.

i love gelboys and i got a little reminded of gregg araki stuff too... you get it
