A Taste of Love (2024)

Chickenhare and the Hamster of Darkness explores true identity through exploration. 

I like discovering something new among the old and Tubi has an assortment of horror films from cinema's past for just such an occasion.

I understood post-memory as passing down stories and images of one’s experiences that are not your own. For decades, rape has been depicted in cinema through a third-person perspective, leaving the viewer to observe rape; not to experience it. 

What seems like such a simple story of survival is so much more than that—it’s a story of family, and of war, and of destruction. It’s painful to watch, but not in a bad way. It makes its audience reflect on their own actions, and in how they are complicit in the sufferings of others as the adults in this film are. Grave of the Fireflies does not hold back from being heartbreaking, and it shouldn’t. It tells a message that needs to be heard decades after the war, and a story that cannot be forgotten by history.

I'm bad, and that's good. I will never be good, and that's not bad. There's no one I'd rather be than me.
