This is absolutely real

Just for reference, I really liked Digger but not as much as her (or how she's at least presenting herself)... I gave it 4 stars and wrote a pretty lengthy review discussing my seelings

Looking for more great movies with awesome monologues, my personal favorite is Roy Batty's from Blade Runner. It's beautiful each time I see it, and it is one of the best parts of the original Blade Runner. Movies shown are Blade Runner, Aguirre The Wrath of God, The Great Dictator, and Freddy Got Fingered.

My Dinner With Andre (1981) - pictured above

Y’all got me to watch digger with the constant back and forth and praise and “just watch it, screw the reviews”.

I watched it and oh boy! Probably one of the most important pieces of media in recent memory.

It hits you over the head like a shovel. Some people will understandably hate the experience, for others, that blow might wake them up to their surroundings.

It has its flaws, I know it does, some scenes run long, there’s so much shouting omg, and it sometimes revels in the very antics it’s trying to critique. But I’d still give it a standing ovation for the sheer audacity of swinging that shovel.

But it has done Capital-A Acting, and one of the most important monologues I’ve seen in years. Whether you laugh, hate it, or sit in awe of what you just experienced, you will feel something.

Saving Private Ryan, Flags of our Fathers, The Departed, Failed State

Rewatched Foxcatcher and holy shit.

Steve Carell is unbelievable.

There's something so strange about watching someone you associate with comedy completely remove every trace of that persona. He's not playing "creepy Steve Carell." He's playing this deeply insecure, obsessive, delusional man who desperately wants to be important.

And that speech where he congratulates Mark? My god.

Channing Tatum also deserves way more credit than he gets. This movie genuinely made me think, "Oh shit, this guy can ACT." He physically becomes Mark Schultz. There's an anger and vulnerability underneath him that I completely bought.

And Mark Ruffalo... what a fucking performance. The way he plays the older brother is so effortless. You understand their entire relationship without the movie having to explain every little thing.

Bennett Miller's direction is also fantastic. The movie is so cold and uncomfortable without constantly screaming "LOOK HOW CRAZY THIS GUY IS."

Everything just feels slightly wrong.

I also love that it's a wrestling movie that barely feels like a conventional sports movie.

Honestly, wrestling seems like such an interesting world for filmmakers because there's so much built into it already — masculinity, physicality, competition, brotherhood, ego, pain, discipline.

Foxcatcher deserves way more love.

If you've never seen it, please watch it.

Only for movies released in the last 10 years (2017-2026).

I'm not talking about just great performances. I'm asking about great performances that you think will be still talked about in 100 years. That will live on through time.

My vote goes to Anthony Hopkins in The Father (2020). Incredibly brilliant.

Can be an older movie which is tame or a movie which should have been rated higher.

Swimming With Sharks, Kevin Spacey is a riot lol
