This is so great; wonderful and necessary reading on both these films!!

I hope you don't grow weary of my film recs but would also suggest you peep Martin Eden and Transit - one Italian, one German/French film - both of which play with time in similar/dissimilar ways, where it appears to be past and present at the exact same time. Martin Eden is sort of like, the aggressively communist version of La Chimera in some ways (Jack London adaptation) with a hot guy who is not the type of hot guy that Josh O'Connor is but worth discussing nonetheless.

I will check out both!! I meant to watch Transit ages ago and realized after watching the other two, that I had confused it, Munich and Allied in my mind.
