My Film Preferences and Evolving Taste

My film collection is incredibly diverse, spanning from beloved classics to the controversial and daring. I've watched everything from Disney family films to artistic masterpieces like A Serbian Film. My mood often dictates my choice, but South Indian films such as Yevadu, RRR, and Sarrainodu are a consistent favorite. These films can match any mood or situation with their engaging narratives and cultural depth.

Comedy, Romance, and Horror

I have a particular preference for comedies, romantic dramas, and horror movies. These genres, with their unique storytelling and emotional depth, often resonate with me. I enjoy movies with compelling narratives and unique concepts, and I appreciate movies that push boundaries and challenge expectations. Superhero movies, however, are a rarity in my collection, with the exception of a few genuinely well-executed films.

The Most Enjoyed

When it comes to captivating mystery films, I often find myself eagerly awaiting their release. However, the ending is often the disappointment, as I expect a well-crafted and immersive climax that maintains the suspense built throughout the film.

Changing Tastes

My tastes in films have evolved over the years, moving away from over-the-top action films and science fiction. In recent years, I've started preferring more cerebral and classic films over flashy contemporary ones. My once-passionate interest in black-and-white classics has transformed into a newfound appreciation for the storytelling and dialogue.

War films now have a unique significance, reflecting not just explosions and heroic characters, but the historical and geopolitical context. My interest has expanded beyond World War II into more obscure conflicts like the Korean War and the Boxer Rebellion. Films like The Steel Helmet are on my radar for this reason.

Overall, I prefer films that are not only entertaining but also offer authenticity and depth. I am more inclined towards locations that are shot on set, with technical and historical accuracy, and that are faithful to their source material. The storyline should be well-crafted without any cheap flourishes or overt political messaging. These are the attributes that make a film truly memorable and engaging for me.
