People of the scene talked a lot about 'One battle after another' and 'Eddington' but I think Bugonia, after starting to watch it yesterday, should get the palm gold for best parapolitical film of 2025. I also made an episode way back about neonicotinoids. creators.spotify.com/pod/profile/th…
My thoughts about Bugonia (2025) There will be spoilers. A conspiracy theorist and his mentally disabled cousin who he's dragged into his bullshit kidnap a girlboss CEO of a giant corporation, thinking she's an alien sent to Earth to exterminate humans. It's a fairly inventive Show more
Silently the best film of 2025.
My ★★★★★ review of Bugonia (2025) on @letterboxd: boxd.it/dzRkTb :D
Watched Bugonia last night. It signals a marked decline in Lanthimos' filmmaking (what the fuck was Kinds of Kindness?), which also simultaneously mirrors the decline in filmmaking and film criticism worldwide. Good to know that he's taking a break. deadline.com/2025/10/yorgos…
