When people are raised with certain expectations, to some those expectations not being met seems to justify victimhood. Even when they're the bad guy.

finished watching Brazilian Dream
Disponível no Tela Brasil na data em que escrevo. Tecnicamente, muito bem-feito. Há boas locações e tomadas que expressam amplitude (algo que faz falta em muitos filmes atuais). Todavia, não era o que esperava (a sinopse que li deixou a desejar): trata-se de um filme experimental e sem diálogos. Portanto, é preciso ter disposição para ver algo não convencional. Deve agradar aos fãs da Trilogia Qatsi, de Godfrey Reggio.
finished watching Waxwork II: Lost in Time 🌕🌕🌕🌑🌑
Riffs on multiple films & genres, veering from slapstick to homage. Gets bogged down for too long in mediaeval fantasy before picking up pace again. Somehow managed to get a ream of cameos ranging from Bruce Campbell to John Ireland.
Closes with a hiphop theme, as was de rigeur for early 90s Hollywood, but this one's a banger from the L.A. Posse. Suck it, hataz!
