"Mizoguchi is a filmmaker I discovered pretty early. When I was younger, I watched anything Scorsese recommended, and I saw an interview with him where he referenced Ugetsu. I just fell in love with Mizoguchi’s work. He called the Academy ratio the “painterly ratio,” and I feel like there are very few filmmakers who did as much with that frame. Sansho the Bailiff is just one of the most devastating melodramas I’ve ever seen, and Ugetsu is a beautiful, ethereal ghost story. His films are quiet while also being extremely harsh and brutal. There’s a clinical, distant quality to his films, but there’s also this aching humanity at the heart of everything he did."

We came, we saw it, it kicked ass! My mind is like a ghost trap and the memory of this night will forever be captured and stored away, never to be forgotten. Between sharing my love for Ghostbusters with my niece and just all of the nostalgia surrounding the movie, it made for a very emotional night. Ghostbusters: Afterlife was worth the wait, and like a bunch of library books, it stacks up to the original. It's so freaking amazing! I loved everything about it! If you're a big baby like me, then have some tissue to keep your tear streams from crossing. And make sure you stay until the end of the credits.
