Why watch this film?
They say that music has the ability to transport us to the past, and The Greatest Hits takes this as a literal premise. The plot of this film, selected at the 2024 SXSW Festival, follows a young woman (Sing Street's Lucy Boynton) who has been trying to overcome the sudden death of her boyfriend for years, but discovers that certain songs allow her to travel to the past... and question everything. Similar to the already classic Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, this film allegorically explores the experience of losing a loved one, the questions that arise from it (could it have been different? was there anything to do to prevent it?), but also the importance of acceptance, letting go, and living in the present. It's uneven, but the premise is interesting, and Boynton delivers a beautiful and melancholic performance.

The Peasants
The Peasants is an animated film by the same directors of Loving Vincent, using the same innovative technique, which could be described as "oil-painted rotoscopy". Based on the Nobel Prize-winning novel The Peasants (1904) by Władysław Reymont, it's a tale of desire and revenge told in four episodes, one for each season of the year. The story, set in Poland at the turn of the 20th century, follows a young peasant woman who wreaks havoc by marrying an older, wealthy man, whose son also desires her, despite being married. It is a powerful and bleak, although conventional tale about violence and misogyny, somewhat overshadowed by its beautiful and prodigious visual execution.
