New Your film roots, from your Letterboxd
Moonrise Kingdom (2012) Anderson's runaway children have a lineage of their own. Truffaut's Small Change behind them, Jojo Rabbit in front.
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?
Train Dreams (2025) Critics could not review Train Dreams without invoking Malick. First with The Tree of Life, then Days of Heaven, then all the rest.
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.
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.
Longlegs (2024) Perkins shoots a serial-killer procedural and then lets the floor drop out. Reviewers kept reaching for Zodiac and Se7en, then stopped being able to.
