THE MAGIC OF REWATCHING MOVIES
Good films don’t always explain themselves. They don’t rush. They let you sit with the awkward silences, the long pauses, the small gestures. And maybe that’s why we come back to them. Because life, too, is made of moments like that.
We don’t always watch movies for the story. Sometimes, we watch them for something softer. A feeling we can’t explain. The way a scene reminds us of someone we used to be. Or someone we miss.

MOVIES YOU MUST WATCH
01

Rival 19th-century magicians engage in a bitter battle for trade secrets. Making something disappear is not enough. You have to bring it back. WATCH CLOSELY.
Oliver Tate is a 15-year-old boy who has two objectives in his life: save his parent's marriage and to lose his virginity before his next birthday. There was indeed no submarine in the film. A very pleasing watch.
A curmudgeonly instructor at a New England prep school remains on campus during Christmas break to babysit a handful of students with nowhere to go. He soon forms an unlikely bond with a brainy but damaged troublemaker, and with the school's head cook, a woman who just lost a son in the Vietnam War. My favourite film out of this week's list.
Reed Richards/Mister Fantastic (Pedro Pascal), Sue Storm/Invisible Woman (Vanessa Kirby), Johnny Storm/Human Torch (Joseph Quinn) and Ben Grimm/The Thing (Ebon Moss-Bachrach) as they face their most daunting challenge yet. Forced to balance their roles as heroes with the strength of their family bond, they must defend Earth from a ravenous space god called Galactus (Ralph Ineson) and his enigmatic Herald, Silver Surfer (Julia Garner).

Quentin Tarantino is one of modern cinema’s most distinctive filmmakers, known for his stylized violence, razor-sharp dialogue, nonlinear storytelling, and deep love for grindhouse and cult genres. Bursting onto the scene with Reservoir Dogs (1992) and revolutionizing indie film with Pulp Fiction (1994), Tarantino has since created a cult of fans with works like Kill Bill, Inglourious Basterds, and Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. His films often blur the lines between homage and originality, blending pop culture with provocative storytelling that’s equally entertaining and unsettling.
Christopher Nolan is a master of cerebral storytelling, blending complex narratives with visually stunning spectacle. Known for crafting films that challenge perception, time, and memory, Nolan's breakout came with Memento (2000), and he went on to redefine blockbuster cinema with The Dark Knight Trilogy, Inception, Interstellar, and Oppenheimer. His signature style includes practical effects, nonlinear timelines, and philosophical depth, earning him a unique position where art-house ambition meets mainstream appeal.
Released in 1927, it was the first feature film with synchronized sound. Its success marked the beginning of the "talkies" era, changing the film industry forever.
THE LION KING
"The Lion King" was initially titled "King of the Jungle. The title was changed when the creators realized that lions don't actually live in jungles.
