How Did I Get Into A24?

 


How Did I Get Into A24?



The Beginning- Now I first discovered A24 When I watched The movie Locke with Tom Hardy I'm like this is a really interesting movie it's just a guy talking to his family in the car no special effects Humor it's really awesome. Then I watched The Farewell which starred Awkwafina and I was like she is usually funny in movies. I'm watching her in this and I'm like she plays the character Billi really seriously and has a really awesome story, and they don't ruin the moment with an out-of-place joke. Ever since then I Fell in love with the studio because they make such awesome and entertaining films. 




The next couple films I started watching- Now my best friend Joey told me to watch Ex Machina Which stars Oscar Isaac and he says it is his favorite movie of all time. So I watched it and I was blown away by how beautiful it looked and how awesome the performances and the idea of a teenager talking to an artificial intelligence, and how much potential and the movie handle that subject matter really well so that is why I think this my favorite Oscar Isaac film ever. But there is this film that everyone was talking about in 2022 called Everything Everywhere All At Once. I'm like how good in this movie with everyone just talking about how awesome it is I watched it on Amazon Prime because the DVD I got from Best Buy didn't work for some reason and My older sister Shelby walked Into my room watching it and she watched it with me and we both love the movie because the special effects and the jokes I'll mention this again they don't ruin the  moment  With a outer place joke they let the emotional moments play out really well. This became one of my all-time favorite movies. Also Ke Huy Quan gave one of his best performances he ever gave because he has not acted in a movie since the 1980s and that's what a spectacular return for him and he won an Oscar for Best supporting actor. I also watched this movie called Swiss Army Man which starred both Daniel Radcliff and Paul Dano and it is one of the funniest movies of 2016 because you think that a movie with a farting corpse would be very boring. But somehow A24 managed to make it really funny but also really emotional because the bonding between Hank and Manny is probably the biggest highlight of that movie.





Favorite A24 Films- Now there's a lot of A24 films that I really like. I'll give you a few movies that I really enjoy. First off Everything Everywhere All At Once is still my number one Favorite A24 film because it's funny it is emotional and I even like the villain when because you really feel bad for Joy Wang even though yes she does a lot of bad stuff in the movie at the same time you understand why she does all that because her mother treats like garbage because she doesn't support her daughter Being LGBTQ  because Joy Wayne  is love with another girl named Becky but by the auntie does change and her mother supports her choices and they are happy together. Another A24 film that I enjoy is First Reformed which is a religious drama which stars Ethan Hawk as Ernest Toller who gives a brilliant, powerful and emotional performance. I also like the themes in the movie about how Religion can blind people and makes them believe that God can solve all their problems because some people actually believe that God will make them happy but here is the thing God can't really solve all your problems you have to solve some problems on your own. I think  the film handles that message really well. I also like how It also shows how Religion makes people unstable and can also sort of corrupt them and make them into religious Fanatics who only think that God would fix everything. The last one I'll mention is The lighthouse which stars  Robert Pattinson and Willem Dafoe giving their best performances ever. Also the storyline about two Lighthouse Keepers Just stuck on Island together in a lighthouse might sound really boring, somehow Robert Eggers makes it very disturbing but very fun at the same time because again it's just two people on an island trying to keep their sanity. Now I would love to discuss more A24 films that I like but since I already mentioned 3 of my favorites.




Why do I think this is one of the best Studios. Now A24 is a studio company that makes Indian movies and they're all really awesome as I already stay but I think what I love about The studio is that they take Storyline that you wouldn't think would be interesting like For example a guy living on an island with a farting corpse should not be funny it should be very boring and uninteresting. But again somehow. This studio is able to craft something both funny and very heartwarming as well. Although the messages they put in their films and the subject matter they discuss Is really interesting like First reformed that film mentions how if you believe that God can solve your problems you're all you are only making  problems worse by not fixing them So that means you not everything can be solved with religion you have to solve most of your problems on your own. Or in The Farewell where it explains that some cultures are very strict about mentioning  subjects like canton; they like to be closed off and not mention it and it takes that subject very seriously in the film. But the thing I like about the studio is that they let their directors have full creative control of the studio and ruin everything. They just let the director make a  film the way they want it to be  and then they craft out beautiful and magnificent Masterpieces of film. 



Conclusion- That's what a lot of fun to discuss because It was really interesting to Talk about not only my love For A 24 films but Just how perfect the studio is because judging by their track record I don't think they'll be stopping anytime soon because I said before they let their directors have control over their films and they not Interfere they just let them make their masterpiece of film. It was also fun to discuss My history of how my love for A24 began. It was interesting to discuss some of my favorite A24 films. I can seriously go on forever about why I love this studio but in the end I leave it this best indie film studio ever.
