I guess I am in the minority here but after watching Phoenix was kind of disappointed, it is technically very good and didn't exactly bored me but it also didn't grabbed me or made me connect with anything in the story, but from the reviews it appears it is one of those movies destined to at least be nominated for foreign film at the Oscars, just like with last year's Ida which I though was a bit better overall.
I also watched Queen of Earth which I thought was pretty good but not quite on par with Perry's last year effort, this felt like a much smaller movie, kind of reminded me of Bergman films in style but missing it's ambiguity and visuals.
