“Backing Tracks” by Pearl Jam

After a long time, I have once again decided to publish a non-soundtrack entry on my blog. There may very well be more of these in the future and I’m already thinking about grouping them into their own category on the main page. But don’t w...

“Kill Bill” by Various Artists

There are days when I feel like Kill Bill was the absolute best Quentin Tarantino has ever been. It’s been sitting super high on my personal Tarantino shortlist for a long time and there are indeed a lot of highlights to be found in these films. ...

“Steve Jobs” by Daniel Pemberton

There was a time when I considered myself to be one of the people commonly known as Apple fanboys. And this despite the fact that the only products with an Apple logo on the back that I ever owned were exclusively iPods and iPhones. Nevertheless, IR...

“Nope” by Michael Abels, Various Artists

Finally, after over two and a half years, I went to the movies again, and it couldn’t have been a better homecoming than with Jordan Peele’s Nope. The film tells the story of a remote horse ranch in the California backcountry called Haywood...

“Punch-Drunk Love” by Jon Brion

After two sprawling epics, director Paul Thomas Anderson took it down a notch and came along with a small and low-key romantic comedy called Punch-Drunk Love. The film centers around Barry Egan, a thirty-something basket-case who leads a dull life. Dur...
