102: Aningaaq (JonΓ‘s CuarΓ³n, 2013) www.youtube.com/watch?v=qrm2...
This short film (complete here) is a moving companion piece to Gravity. Thematically right on point, & emphasising Dr Stoneβs isolation - both films somehow enhance each other.

101: The Elephant Man (David Lynch, 1980) www.youtube.com/watch?v=lJPf...
With sublime cinematography & wonderful acting, itβs Hannah Gordonβs performance that really gets me here. Her radiant beauty makes the uncomfortable tensions of the scene all the more moving.
I miss posting my #100Years100FaveFilms ! And Iβm very appreciative of those people who joined in with their own personal picks, which were so cool to see!
Iβm keeping the hashtag going, & will add more films once in a while - just not every day as before. Do feel free to keep posting! π₯β¨β€οΈ

Day 100: Le Voyage dans la Lune (Georges Méliès, 1902) www.youtube.com/watch?v=qXC4...
After sharing Scorseseβs beautiful film Hugo, I decided I wanted to post this to close my 100 list. Taking us right back to the beginning, almost 125 years ago! ππβ¨

99: The Taste of Things (TrαΊ§n Anh HΓΉng, 2023) www.youtube.com/watch?v=KZ5_...
Food as a metaphor for life, cooking a metaphor for love. Moving, lovely, mouthwatering! And Juliette Binoche, star of my favourite film, a great actor & still beautiful at the age of 59.

Day 98: Past Lives (Celine Song, 2023) www.youtube.com/watch?v=LuiQ...
Understatedly moving film set in Seoul & New York - a kind of love triangle but very delicate, full of empathy, that left me thinking about my own βpast livesβ. And the three actors are wonderful.

97: The Boy and the Heron (Hayao Miyazaki, 2023) www.youtube.com/watch?v=sQVq...
Some serious themes around loss & death in this film, but still full of the beauty, joy, love, playful humour & weird imagination that youβd expect from Miyazaki. Hopefully not his last!

Day 96: The Fabelmans (Steven Spielberg, 2022) www.youtube.com/watch?v=dk6s...
A delightful Spielberg film like no other, semi-autobiographical, & with a very funny cameo at the end from a certain master filmmaker. π

Day 95: Petite Maman (CΓ©line Sciamma, 2021) www.youtube.com/watch?v=YdcE...
As much as Sciammaβs previous film, Portrait of a Lady on Fire, this one, in its quiet way, is sublime. It made me feel better about life, & what more could one want from a work of art?

94: Portrait of a Lady on Fire (CΓ©line Sciamma, 2019) www.youtube.com/watch?v=k1uj...
Astonishingly beautiful film set in 18th century France, about two women falling in love in quiet defiance of the patriarchy. Visually very distinctive, restrained & deeply moving.

Day 93: Arrival (Denis Villeneuve, 2017) www.youtube.com/watch?v=nNpd...
The most moving first contact film Iβve ever seen - a deceptively simple but deeply layered story that haunts you afterwards, with a central performance by Amy Adams of wonderful interiority.

Day 92: The Red Turtle (MichaΓ«l Dudok de Wit, 2016) www.youtube.com/watch?v=MuVU...
Co-produced by Studio Ghibli, & reminiscent in spirit but visually quite different. No dialogue, just lovely animation & a simple story thatβs mysterious & deeply affecting. Sublime!

Day 91: My Life as a Courgette (Claude Barras, 2016) www.youtube.com/watch?v=x7Q-...
Extremely touching, gently funny French stop-motion animation about kids in a childrenβs home, co-written by the great director CΓ©line Sciamma. This clip is from the dubbed version.
As we near the end, great news that this fun hashtag will continue on! Pop in when you feel like it with your fave film picks! Thanks for creating it , Michael. π₯°

Day 90: Interstellar (Christopher Nolan, 2014) www.youtube.com/watch?v=onVh...
It attempts to express an immensity beyond comprehension, yet its core is the most intimate thing of all, the love between a father & child. All criticism falls silent. Itβs awe-inspiring.
