No Bones, no SVU, what a sad week.

Greys 10.07

As I rewatched the episode I realized it was actually good. Meredith is now just another character, when I really do not want to get to know the new ones.

Damn she didn’t invite her.
She had lasic surgery.
None of them do and I don’t need to spend a day in the or.

I know that happy halloween.
Candy for dinner, nice.
Zombies aren’t real.
Maggots.
Luckily someone invented a bus pass.
Come on grey, you won’t makr her take a bus, there’s a shop, just across the street, she can walk.
Head mirrors.
Ben you are a doctor, have you ever worn one?
We’re gonna have to take you down to the or to get the parasites out of the wound.
Doctor Brooks. Heather Brooks. Yes she is she’s always here.
Another one down.
You’re from Scotland Kevin, what the hell are you talking about.
Grey got her an sleep patch.
You’ll be here the whole time Meredith?
The whole time.
Everyone gets a trophy for just being on the team.
And tell her she’s beautiful.
Maybe she’s a ghost.
She walk on the lady.
You only get ten of them.
You got me quarantined.
You are not under quarantine.
Isn’t that like 100 times scarier than some zombie apocalypse.
Right now it’s not the time to be easy peasy.
Doctor Brooks died three months ago.
Are you as good as she was?
No, but I will be.
You’re really gonna tell me that’s the wrong answer?
You’re so easy.
Dude I’m waiting for my boyfriend.
Tequilla.
Get in before the trick or treaters think that I’m home.

Revenge 3.05

This show is doing so great, but please more Victoria, less the french girl, we sent Ashley away to get a french version of Ashley?

8/10

Castle 6.06

Alexis is starting to get on my nerves, but not as much as people who don’t understand that it’s normal for a 19 year old to live with her boyfriend. But seriously, we found some couch and chairs on the street? With my ocd I’d be scared I’d catch something.

8.5/10

American Horror Story 3.04

So what happened to Queenie? I hope they get over this Frankenstein storyline and please less chanting and fighting with the bad witches and more killing.

5/10

The Carrie Diaries 2.02

The show is so good with Samantha, but please no more Sebastian crap.

Shes walking naked.
You’re right, Carrie, there’s some great stuff in here, phone sex operators wanted, work from home, 6.99 a minute?!
Carrie no the spanker!
Has someone been a bad boy?
Party lines still exist?
She’s not some chick, she’s a new friend.
Good thing I planned it so far in advance.
What did you call me?
No I didnt mean sayvit again.
Jane Fonda.
That’s right there you go.
I’m a phone sex operator.
People open up to me, it must be likr talking to a nun.
Religion can be very hot.
And a few other things.
I most certainly will not.
I can get you tickets.
No problem bambi, just a simple phone call.
Toilet paper, we’re out, maybe you could get some?
Sure thing.
Tangled in a phone.
You’re Carrie Bradshaw, you do not take any crap from any man.
How are you so brave?
Donna took sone guys hat.
Lets fo this kindergarten style.
You are all ruining my fantasy of being your sexy nurse.
Carrie shut the hell up with the food talk.
I’m gonna kill you, right after I…
You’re a girls girl, thats why I like uou.
So we’re still friends?
Honey, of course, we have to stay friends, we wear the same size underwear.
I don’t even wanna know how you know that.
You better not be leaving with any of my underwear.
You broke me. You broke my heart and I hate you because I still love you and I hate myself even more for it. You happy?
Can I tell you the gruesome details later? I’m still a little fragile.

I am giving up Scandal. I am really mad, because us little people cannot do shit like that. I hate shows I cannot relate to. I should have not started it, I was mad about Shonda taking time to write it, and leaving Private Practice for death. Lately she is doing the same exact thing to Greys and I cannot see it go, because of some show, I only started watching because  I was bored. Since I only relate to the killing parts, I am saying goodbye to Scandal. I have not yet picked up any new shows this fall, even Masters of Sex, which I found very good.I have never felt more relieved to give up a show. Scandal, I am not watching you again.

Greys 10.06

Did I say last episode was bad, this one was much worse. The weakest episode of the series, without a doubt. How bad your imagination and creativity must be if you base an episode around a mug? I am mad at Shonda for focusing on Scandal and giving up Private Practice and now Greys.

4/10 – what the hell Shonda?

SVU 15.06

Highly disapointed this week.

Bones 9.06

My babies got married! I’ve waited 8yrs for this. Couldn’t stop crying. So many beautiful memories. Can I go back to all those early mornings? I’ll be reminiscing for the rest of the week and rewatching the wedding. I remember the rush this show used to gave me, miss those times. What a spectacular episode.

‘Look, hey, do you remember the last time that we were here? Standing right around this spot, it was right in the beginning before we really knew each other. I was trying to get away from you because you were irritating me and you chased me down and you caught up to to me. I said to you, ‘Listen, I just have to get all my ducks in a row,’ and then you said to me, ‘I can be a duck!’ We have been chasing each other for a long time. We’ve been chasing each other through wars and serial killers and ghosts and snakes. Chasing you has been the smartest thing I’ve ever done in my life and being chased by you has been my greatest joy. But now, we don’t have to chase each other because we caught each other.’

‘When Hodgins and I were buried alive, we each wrote a message to someone we loved in case our bodies were ever found. Hodgins wrote to Angela and I wrote to you. ‘Dear Agent Booth, you are a confusing man. You are irrational and impulsive, superstitious and exasperating. You believe in ghosts and angels, and maybe even Santa Claus and because of you I’ve started to see the universe differently. How is it possible that simply looking into your fine face gives me such joy? Why does it make me so happy that every time I try to sneak a peek at you, you’re already looking at me. Like you it makes no sense, and like you, it feels right. If I ever get out of here, I will find a time and place to tell you that you make my life messy and confusing and unfocused and irrational and wonderful. This is that time, this is that place.’

‘You ready, Booth?’ ‘I’ve been ready for years.’

‘What you and Temperance have, it’s the reason we draw breath.’

‘We’ve waited long enough.’ ‘We have.’

Castle 6.05

The show is doing so fine.

The Carrie Diaries 2.01

The stain of defeat is a mafe little easier by a great place to live, a great summer job, an awesome new look and a whole new attitude.
Its Saturday.
Than why did you wake me.
Who’s miller?
I don’t have time for regrets, only fun.
And impersonating her mother.
That purse is a part of who I am.
What are you looking at? You never seen anyone sweaty before?
Is the cake okay?
No I didn’t realize there are 20 murders a week in Manhattan. That’s good to know.
Drug diller can’t reach if the line is busy. Tea would be lovely thank you.
You promised no whining.
Hello officers.
Say nothing.
Everyone is just been laughing about you.
There’s no money for me to go to college. If I wanna go, I have to pay for it myself.
I just feel so lost. Everyone hates me.
If I don’t go to college, I’m stuck here.
We all lose things. Stuff comes and goes, who cares.
Yeah that is stupid.
If you ever need anything, you know where I live.
Can I stay here for a couple of days.

Greys 10.05

Probably the weakest episode of the whole series. I knew this would happen if we leave it to the interns. I hope Dexter’s father isn’t going, wasn’t he supposed to stay for more episodes? The final voiceover and what Cristina said relate so painfully much to me at the moment, it hurts.

‘You and I started running down the same road, at the same time, and at a certain point, you let up. You slowed down. You made your choices and they are valid choices. And don’t say that I don’t support that, because I do. But don’t pretend they don’t affect your skills. We’re in different places now, and that’s okay.’

‘What if your focus splits? What if you can’t be all in? Are you left with nothing at all? Maybe you just need to find a different path. Here’s what’s horrifying. What if you can’t give 100%? Maybe you just need to go back to the beginning and start all over again.’

6/10

SVU 15.05

Farewell Munch! I’ll miss you dearly!

6.5/10

Revenge 3.03

‘Some believe confession helps a guilty soul find peace. Releasing us from the shame and regret of our mistakes. In the face of mortality many feel the need to seek this closure to make things right. Because if death doesn’t kill us our demons will.’

‘I’m turning myself in to authorities.’ ‘So your psychosis has progressed.‘

‘You’re going to be hand-delivering all 400 wedding invitations? Surely you have enough money for postage.’

‘There’s so much you don’t know about me, Victoria.’ ‘I’m learning more and more each day.’

‘I was always drawn to the Old Testament. God… the one who avenges.’

10/10

American Horror Story 3.02

Again, the weakest episode.

5/10

Scandal 3.03

‘This is not a fairy tale. This is not the happily ever after. If you’re still alive, it’s because he still owns you. It’s because you’re still useful to him, and he’s going to find a way to use you against me…He still owns me too.’

Greys 10.04

What a lovely way to celebrate 200th episode!

Overture, curtains, lights. This is it, the night of nights. No more rehearsing and nursing a part. We know every part by heart. Tonight what heights we’ll hit, on with the show. This is it!

10/10

SVU 15.04

I love when Amanda goes undercover. I am so sad Richard is leaving the show.

‘What did you think? That he was gonna leave his wife and his kid for you? You spent the last five years sitting in that car hoping that one day he would look over at you and suddenly realise that you were the woman that he couldn’t live without.’

9/10

Bones 9.04

First of, remember when all the episodes were this good.

To hell with the FBI.
I have to go do scientific things to catch a serial killer.
Oh here we go down the rabbit hole.
You and I are destined to die together.
Think about all the innocent lives you’re saving by doing absolutely nothing.
That’s what you call a tortured soul.
Up until the moment he discovers that she’ll never have him.
I’ll take that as a yes.
That son of a bitch left her a love note, that only she can understand.
Who cares, we were here for the big happy ending.

10/10

Castle 6.03

She’d be sleeping on the couch with him.
Nobody tells you how it feels like when it’s gone. Plenty people around you to help you spend it though.

5/10

Revenge 3.02

Can’t wait to see Victoria and Aiden join forces!

Freelancing is not a profession, dear. It’s a hobby one has between bartending shifts.
Convince Conrad to confess. To everything.

10/10

American Horror Story 3.01

Apparently I’m a witch, it runs in my family. It doesn’t show up in every generation, or in every girl. My cousin Amanda’s just bulimic.

“It’s a cliche. But like all cliches, it’s the truth. Your life can change overnight.”

“When levees broke the people of New Orleans were tested. Those who stayed stayed for a reason. With that came a sense of purpose and community. That’s what happens in a crisis. All the bullshit falls away and what’s left is just so raw and vulnerable. It’s agony to let people see you so exposed. It takes a huge amount of trust and for most of us, that trust was shattered long ago. But like it or not, we need each other and we need each other desperately. My mother was right. The world isn’t safe for a girl like me but maybe I’m not safe for the world either. And since I’ll never be able to experience real love, I might as well put this curse to some use.”

Fall season, thank god you’re back. I hate that the summer is gone and I haven’t seen many films I wanted to. It’s like I’ve wasted the entire summer doing absolutely nothing. I did start watching Bates Motel, and The Killing and Switched at Birth and rewatched Daria, because I haven’t seen it in 10 years. I still think this was the most unproductive summer of all. I will try to catch up with everything I’ve left aside last winter. I’ve started with dvr-ing some 70s films. I am glad I am not watching horror movies excessivly but that is probably the case because I finished watching everything important a few years back, but I still haven’t chosen the movies for Halloween. Is there some horror classic I’ve missed over my darkness obsessed teenage years? Speaking of classics, back to the list Jo, seriously. Get your shit together. And please for God’s sake stop spending so much time on tumblr.

Greys 10.01

‘We’re all going to die. We don’t get much say over how or when, but we do get to decide how we’re gonna live. So, do it. Decide. Is this the life you want to live? Is this the person you want to love? Is this the best you can be? Can you be stronger? Kinder? More compassionate? Decide. Breathe in. Breathe out and decide.’

10/10

Greys 10.02

‘They say your life flashes before your eyes right before you die. The important moments, the moments that tested you, the moments that made you who you are. I don’t know about my life flashing before me. I was thinking about my white coat and how I’m glad I had it on me now. It’s the moment my life started, seems fitting it should be on me when it ends.’

You make a decision and then the world has it’s turn. The consequences unfold out of your hands. There’s only one thing that seems clear in those quiet moments while you wait. You chose wrong.’

9/10

Greys 10.03

Webber’s all suicidal, saying Mer is not his family and he only chose her to help him die, fully understandable.

In the game of mercy, when one kid cries out, the other one listens and the pain stops. Don’t you wish it was that easy now? It’s not a game anymore and we’re not kids. You can cry mercy all you want but nobody’s listening. It’s just you screaming into a void.

8/10

SVU 15.01

Liv’s alive. She’s a survivor.

‘I think I want you to suffer first. Maybe I can burn you, or cut you, or I can use the blowtorch, but you might enjoy that too. I want to shoot you in the head right now. Watch you bleed out, but maybe that’s too easy.’

‘My old partner, he’d know what to do. He wouldn’t question himself after what you’ve done. He would kick your teeth in, break your legs, break your arms, break your back, break your face. Maybe I should call him. Maybe I should get him to use that metal bar on you and make you beg for your life.’

10/10

SVU 15.02

‘You know what I’ve seen, is that people who have gone through unfair, horrific experiences, is that they have this will, and when they get support, a chance, they can not only survive, they can thrive.’

10/10

SVU 15.03

SVU is without a doubt the best show there is at the moment, the writing is just superb and the show has never been better.

And if you’re lucky, fieces.
I tend to represent all hot women.
I don’t know if you can classify hot women as a race.
This is a job for Tony and Roxie.
Why do you always refuse help?
We’re actually talking 8 hearts here.
No Tony, I ain’t.

Exactly Liv why didn’t you aim for Mellie?
Do you have to be so mediocre?
I am the hell and the high water.
I am a monster, but, honey, I’m your monster!

Where is he and what have you done with him.
She called Mellie!

And then it ended and started and ended and started.

Revenge Season 2

It was much weaker than the exciting season 1, until it got really good. Declan died, and even though we all knew this would happened, it was still intriguing how they chose to kill him off, but that was not the biggest shocker. I was also surprised by Amanda’s death and by the Emily/Mason Treadwell alliance. I was not shocked to see Padma use Nolan, it was great. We found out Takeada’s secret. We saw Victoria’s past, her relationship with mother and found out she was abused by a stepfather and gave birth to a child of rape. We are saying goodbye to Ashley, who did not bring anything useful to the plot this year. We met Aiden, and I still have not formed my opinion about him, he is not Daniel, but he is not Jack as well. I am not happy with Char’s pregnancy, she will not go to Harvard and the plot is just cheap and common. And finally, the biggest surprise, Emily told Jack she’s the real Amanda Clarke. It was, overall, a good season.

Welcome to ReviewThisFilm

This website started in 2010 as weekly reviews of movies and tv episodes, and a diary of the 700 new films I watched every year. Today it’s a place for me to write a few words on films and tv shows that leave some sort of impact on me. I no longer write in depth reviews, mostly thanks to bad habits gained by spending many hours a day on Letterboxd.

If you have a film you would like me to watch and review,  please leave a comment.

Enjoy!

About the Author

All I do is watch movies, the good, the bad and the ugly. Sometimes I make my own.

Check out my latest film (120K+ views on Youtube):

www.youtube.com/watch?v=WP3Iz23hD7M

I’ve seen over 6000 films and 220 TV shows. I have a degree in Film Production, and wrote my dissertation on Italian neorealism. I mostly gravitate towards social issues films, anything Ken Loach, Krzysztof Kieslowski, Roberto Rossellini, Vittorio De Sica or Jafar Panahi, etc.

I rate films within genre. I watch a lot of films on Mubi, Filmbox Arthouse. My favourite directors are Yasujiro Ozu, Ken Loach, Krzysztof Kieslowski, Zhang Yimou, Roberto Rossellini, Ingmar Bergman, Brian De Palma, Vittorio De Sica and Andrzej Wajda. My favourite actresses have always been Jodie Foster, Sally Field and Julianne Moore. I’m nostalgic and reminisce a lot. I’m at the cinema 10 times a month. And I’m a Polish-British millennial.

I will watch anything:

psychological | arthouse | foreign | independent | drama | horror | lgbt | strong female characters | female centred films | dysfunctional families | sexual assault | troubled childhood | mental health issues

About me

I am the dark and twisty Meredith Grey, the mad Dexter Morgan, hoping to grow up to be a little more like the wise, but fun Nora Walker. I am an aspiring filmmaker. My favorite actresses are Jodie Foster, Sally Field and Julianne Moore. Favorite genre – psychological drama. I watch anything with a sexual or mental abuse plot. I used to be a horror freak. I am obsessed with Grey’s Anatomy, SVU and many more. My other interests include making oil and pencil portraits and wildlife conservation. I cannot say no to beautiful landscapes, travel, Aussie accent, TV/film quotes and avocados. I have recently moved back from Australia to the UK. I’ve been running this blog for the last 9 years. Here I comment on films and episodes I watch. Enjoy! – Joanne

favourite film and tv quotes

‘When I lived in Porpoise Spit, I used to sit in my room for hours and listen to ABBA songs. But since I’ve met you and moved to Sydney, I haven’t listened to one Abba song. That’s because my life is as good as an Abba song. It’s as good as Dancing Queen.’ (Muriel’s Wedding)

‘I used to think about
your life in New York. I tried to imagine your room. I kept track of the time difference, so I  knew when you were awake and when you were asleep.’ (Disobedience)

‘Nothing’s clean, Howard. But we do our best, right?’ (The Aviator)

‘No, I’m not quitting. I don’t quit things.’
‘No, actually you do. Your mother quit your father. Your father quit you. You quit your boyfriend and if I read your hospital chart correctly you quit your life momentarily on a couple of occasions. You quit. It’s what you know how to do.’ (Greys)

‘Where the hell was I that year?’
‘Your were watching television’. (Everybody Loves Raymond)

‘It’s impossible to worry about anything else when there’s blood coming out of you.’
(Short Term 12)

‘I wanted it to happen. And when we were girls… Even then, it was the same. It’s always been this way! I have always wanted it.’ (Disobedience)

‘Sometimes it’s easy, sometimes you play games in your head. You make up someone, someone good.’ (Greys)

‘There comes a moment when our lives change forever. The moment we admit our weaknesses, the moment we rise to a challenge, the moment we accept a sacrifice, or let a loved one go. And sometimes the change in our lives is an answer to our prayers.’ (Desperate Housewives)

‘Yesterday I went to the movies all day by myself. One after the other. I’ve never done that before. I had a really happy day.’ (Doing Time for Patsy Cline)

‘I just need something to happen. I need a sign that things are going to change. I need a reason to go on. I need some hope. And in the absence of hope, I need to stay in bed a feel like I might die today.’ (Greys)

‘She saved me my whole life. Without her, I’m nothing.’ (The Favourite)

‘Don’t wonder why people go crazy. Wonder why they don’t. In face of what we can lose in a day, in an instant, wonder what the hell it is that make us hold it together.’  (Greys)

‘Bree sobbed quietly in the restroom for five miutes, but her husband never knew, because when Bree finally emerged, she was perfect.’ (Desperate Housewives)

‘I am not food, you cannot just eat and eat.’ (The Favourite)

‘I don’t love him.’
‘Of course you do.’
‘No!’
‘Don’t take me for a fool Olive,  I’m many things but I’m not a fool.’
‘I know that, you’re brilliant.’
‘Don’t you see, it’s over. Whatever this is, was, it’s over.’
‘I love You.’ (Professor Marston and the Wonder Women)

‘At the end of the day, the fact that we have the courage to still be standing, is reason enough to celebrate.’ (Greys)

‘Many years ago, a neighbour and a good friend of ours took her life, and that left us all heartbroken and perplexed. But somehow, when I was alone in that hotel room, I forget about all the pain that she caused. In those awful moments, I thought maybe she had the answer.‘ (Desperate Housewives)

‘What happened last year when you fell in the water?’
‘I almost drowned. Do you think I did that for kicks?’
‘You put your hand in a body cavity that contained unexploded ammunition.’
‘I was trying to save a patient!’
‘Why is it that every other person in that room had the sense to hit the deck? You know people run away from this line between life and death. You seem to stand on it and wait for a strong wind to sway you one way or the other. You’re careless with your life. You’re not slitting your wrists but you’re careless. Probably because your mother told you you were a waste of space on this planet. The problem is you believed her. And if you don’t want out one of these days you’re going to die because of it.’  (Greys)

‘This is the street where I used to live and these were the people with whom I shared my life. I met them the day they moved in. And I saw what they brought with them. Beautiful dreams for the future. And quiet hopes for a better life. Not just for themselves, but for their children, too. If I could, would I tell them what lies ahead? Would I warn them of the sorrow and betrayal that lie in store? No. From where I stand now, I see enough of the road to understand how it must be traveled. The trick is to keep moving forward, to let go of the fear and the regret that slow us down and keep us from enjoying a journey that will be over too soon. Yes, there will be unexpected bends in the road, shocking surprises we didn’t see coming, but that’s really the point. Don’t you think?’ (Desperate Housewives)

‘Was your life not working when you let that slip out from under you?’
‘When are you going to stop suggesting that I’m suicidal?’
‘When you start acting like someone that wants to be alive.’
‘Give me my chart.’
‘Why?’
‘Because I’m not suicidal, and if it says that I am, then it’s wrong.’ (Greys)

‘There is nothing wrong with me.’
‘Then show me your arm.’ (Degrassi)

‘Look, my whole life, I have been the freak. The girl who nobody picked for dodgeball. The girl who didn’t have a mom. The girl who dressed funny because it was her dad buying her clothes. And then, tonight I looked at these people, and I thought maybe there’s a future where I don’t have to be a freak. Maybe I can be who I am and that’s okay.’ (Everything Sucks)

‘Dr, I have been this way since…since I can remember. There is no cure.’ (American Horror Story)

‘He was so crazy about me, I couldn’t breathe. So we tried drinking our way back into love, but it never made sense in the morning. So I ran. And every time I came back, he was here. And he was still crazy about me.’ (My Blueberry Nights)

‘Bree van de Kamp had always wanted to live her life with elegance and grace. That is also how she wanted to die. Her plan was to pour herself a glass of her favorite chardonnay, put on her most stylish nightgown and leave behind a note on embossed stationery.’ (Desperate Housewives)

‘All we have is this moment. The future is just a fucking concept that we use to avoid being alive today. So be… here…. now.’ (Six Feet Under)

‘On the train coming here, we were in the same cart, I saw you, you were reading and you feel asleep. I didn’t dare to look at you, you were so beautiful, it was scary. Afterwards,  I couldn’t stop thinking about you. It made me smile. Then I thought of all the men who would get to hold you, who’d make you laugh. How lucky they were.’ (Enemy at the Gates)

‘It was a good day. Maybe even a great day. Even when it was hard, I was the me in my head. There was a moment when I thought I cant do this, I cant do this alone. I close my eyes and imagine myself doing it, and I did, I blocked out the fear, and I did it.’ (Greys)

‘There comes a time when we must expose our weaknesses. When our secrets can no longer remain private, when our solitude can no longer be denied, when our pain can no longer be ignored, but sometimes we feel so alone that a weakness we thought we’d overcome suddenly becomes too strong to fight.’ (Desperate Housewives)

‘Why did you get married, Esti? Why didn’t you just leave? So everything was all right when I left?’
‘No. I was ill.’
‘What sort of ill?’
‘In my head.’
‘If I had to sleep with a man, why not with our best friend?’
‘Oh, Esti…’
‘It hasn’t been a complete disaster.’
‘And that’s enough?! Do you have to have sex every Friday?’
‘It’s expected.’
‘It’s medieval. What happened to you?’
‘Nothing. You happened to me. And then I started teaching and that became important. I give them ambition.’
‘To do what? Push out seven babies and be a good wife?’
‘Don’t. Don’t. I help them to value themselves.’
‘Okay, but what about you?’
‘That is me. And you? Are you happy?’
‘Yes, I am.’
‘Have you been with other women?’
‘No. Not really. And you?’
‘No.’
‘But, Esti… Do you still
only fancy women?’ (Disobedience)

‘OK, then, listen. Let’s not get caught.’
‘What are you talkin’ about?’
‘Let’s keep goin’!’
‘What d’you mean?’
‘Go.’
‘You sure?’
‘Yeah. Yeah.’ (Thelma & Louise)

‘She let me live at Nora’s house. She let me believe that I was a part of their family. I fell in love with that family. What am I supposed to do, just sit there, pretend I’m related to them? I was happy. For the first time in my life I was happy.’ (Brothers and Sisters)

‘You will be left all alone with your bitterness and your rage and your knowledge that you loved her and she loved you and you threw it away for them.’
‘Do you love her?’
‘Yes.’
‘And Have you always?’
‘Yes.’
‘So then ask her.’
‘Olive, will you forgive me?’ (Professor Marston and the Wonder Women)

‘No razors, no scissors, no fucking freedom.’
(Short Term 12)
