The Wild Goose Lake 2019

If you were evaluating yourself, how many stars would you give you? Serious question I'd love for you to answer in the comments!

I ask because, fittingly, my last film of 2019 reminded me of me: infrequently brilliant, well meaning, and not as clever as it thinks it is.

This Chinese film noir touches on all the tropes but rarely has anything new to offer (though the umbrella scene is one of the best I've seen all year!): Filming clichés slowly doesn't make them more artistic. So, out of a possible 10, I have 6 Fs to give, which is what I'd probably give myself, truth be told!
