I watched Jaws (1975), my first time! It was so good.

Two things stood out to me. One, I wasn’t expecting the movie to have such different first and second acts. It worked, but it surprised me. And two, Richard Dreyfuss’ character is incredibly well acted and fun. I don’t know, I was expecting the movie to feel “old”. Not only did it not, but his character in particular stood out as so well done and so fun to watch.

My guess as to why it doesn’t feel ‘old’ is that it set the standard for modern blockbusters.

On my side, I would say the Truman show.

A classic, but it was the first time for me, and I really enjoyed it, it aged very well.

I watched The Death of Stalin finally after being recommended to me years ago. Armando Iannucci is one of the funniest political satirist in my opinion. It was hilarious, sad, and scary with some scenes making me feel all 3 emotions at the same time.
