Before I saw Dune: Part Two, I considered Denis Villeneuve one of the best working directors today. During my friends’ wedding week in Mexico last year (shoutout to Mr. and Mrs. Linhares) a group of us talked about movies and one of the questions we asked ourselves was “If you could only keep one director…
Here’s our list of the best movies of 2023!
I started Screen Love Affair because I love movies. I love video games and TV too, but movies are definitely my biggest passion. The name I settled on was meant to reflect that love and passion. There’s nothing quite like staring up at that big screen and going on an adventure. Whether it’s an emotional…
God bless my friend Adriana. First, she is an amazing writer that has finished two AMAZING reviews so far. Secondly though, she will ALWAYS come with me to the movies, even if that is for a Zone of Interest and All of Us Strangers double feature. It was a heavy four hours for both of…
If you’re a movie lover like me, you’ve been going to the movies a lot in the last two months. In the late fall and early winter season we’re bombarded left and right with “Oscar movies” that are releasing just under the wire so they can be top of mind for voters come award season….

It’s the holiday season which means we’re inundated with a bunch of films seeking some awards buzz before the Academy Awards early next year and my Scene card has been working overtime! I had the pleasure of seeing Poor Things twice now, but needed a second viewing to really form my feelings about the movie….

The author argues that “Godzilla Minus One” surpasses all previous Godzilla movies and criticizes Hollywood’s attempts at producing them. Praising the plot, character development, and visual effects of the Japanese version, the writer recounts the film’s impact on him, marking it as his favorite movie. The film takes place post-World War II, representing Godzilla as a force of nature; the depiction incorporates themes about Japan’s war-time attitudes and decisions. It’s recommended for the exploration of Japanese history, character drama, and monster movie aspects.
