Nicole Kidman is excellent in this Sunset Boulevard inspired thriller. The story is about fame and the desire to achieve goals, which pushes the limits of our nature. Suzanne decent into desperation is clever, and the use of clapping vs shouting also shows how deranged she has become. The precursor to gone girl, I feel this is an excellent look at the highs and lows of fame.

To Die For

Fun flick, playing the meta up to the point I nearly thought we were gonna get a 180° camera pan to Gus Van Sant wagging a finger at me and going tsk tsk. Phoenix as a short-circuiting teen. Wayne Knight in his most 'just some guy' role I've ever seen. Cronenberg out of fucking nowhere. Kidman as The 21st Century.

I've used this film while playing Cine2Nerdle, but had never actually watched it until today. Nicole Kidman is such a talented person and I'm embarrassed I've only started watching her films recently. Gorgeous, hilarious, versatile, etc., etc. I loved the nonlinear storytelling and the end was perfect. Really good movie!

Kidman is phenomenal in this. Plus a Cronenberg cameo? It rules.
