New Your film roots, from your Letterboxd
Nope (2022) Everyone left Nope naming a different film. Tremors, Akira, and over and over, Spielberg. This is Peele's Close Encounters of the Third Kind.
Moonrise Kingdom (2012) Anderson's runaway children have a lineage of their own. Truffaut's Small Change behind them, Jojo Rabbit in front.
The Babadook (2014) Jennifer Kent's The Babadook rekindled our interest in contemporary horror after years of remakes and retreads. Its motifs have been used in films such as Lights Out, His House and Under the Shadow.
Pulp Fiction (1994) Quentin Tarantino's films are packed with homages and Pulp Fiction is no exception. Have you seen Kiss Me Deadly or Charley Varrick?
Days of Heaven (1978) Days of Heaven from 1978 is Terrence Malick's pastoral masterpiece. Which films are trying to recapture its magic? Critics infer a lineage to 2020's Nomadland and many others.
The Holdovers (2023) Alexander Payne made a film that reviewers kept dating to the 1970's. The works of Hal Ashby are natural touchstones: Harold and Maude or The Last Detail.
