I love that this film is a comedy. It's like borderline farce/screwball. And that's really refreshing. It has it's moments of sadness dramatic weight but it's not an "issues" movie. Films about sex workers tend to either be poverty porn or treat them as people who need to be "saved" (by Richard Gere). But here it's a comedy through and through. It has moments of dramatic weight, but it's always full of joy and humor and personality.

I can't wait to hear what you have to say about that one! I love Sean Baker's films and especially the two last ones! He is THE director that manages the most to make me feel like I've lived someone else's life. You can be a thinker, have empathy and shit but there will always be a difference between being aware of something and have a reality really hit you and that's what happens with his movies. I wish there were in depth analysis of his work on youtube but there is almost nothing about him! I rarely watch movies several times a year but in late 2018 I remember almost exclusively watching Roma, Climax and The Florida Project on repeat for a month^^ To me, c'est un grand maître just like the other two! In a perfect world everyone would know his damn name!

A bloody great movie, so entertaining, was smiling throughout most of it.

i can't forget the ending of this movie and the "end credits song" which is just the sound of the washing machines in the laundry

[@domwalker6526]

One of the best Christmas movies all time. This man is one of the best filmmakers working today. I adore this movie so much

[@reverendjim4184]

Also gotta recommened people see Starlet, which immediately preceeded this one, and is best to watch without knowing a thing about it -- Baker very subtley unveils the quirky main character's world to the audience. His first two films, Prince of Brooklyn and Takeout aren't as easy to find, but also well worth it -- both are great little moral plays.

Take out got a criterion release recently!

[@aurora3655]

no one understands what we go through, than us.

[@garykearney3273]

I love the film aswell. Has become Christmas favourite. Read article somewhere( I think sound and sight) he made on iPhone because he couldn't get funding for the film anywhere. Great review.

[@mistahmata]

Literally just watched this for the first time a week ago and absolutely loved it his eye for empathy is unmatched

[@firecrackerheart]

tangerine was such a surprise and a pleasure of a film for me. i am a devout sean baker disciple since viewing it.....i've seen it 7 or 8 times by now! thanks for the synopsis once again .. .

[@henryjones8287]

Loved this and loved The Florida Project, am looking forward to checking out Baker's latest!

[@janevivian24]

I was literally thinking about this movie before you uploaded this

[@Shah-of-the-Shinebox]

I watched Tangerine on Kanopy. I found it fascinating. Pretty impressive for a film shot on an iPhone.

[@pebblestone2773]

Agreed

[@Horntsnest1]

I have a couple of requests ... Untamed Heart, Bullet, and The Departed... very interested to know what you think. Thank you in advance.

[@fayis4everlove]

A lot of people misses the fact the THIS IS REAL LIFE just like The Florida Project .. both films are a glimpse of someone's life .. This is true Indie . If you can't relate then be thankful because you're privileged. I'm from the Philippines and my trans/gay friends live a similar life. I agree that they don't dig into the issues but that's what makes it RAW because in real life.. people don't really share their feelings, they don't scream while crying like your typical Hollywood drama movie 😂 .. this is as raw as it gets not Oscar cry for me raw.

[@azhybekaitaliev4576]

Please review Red Rocket when it comes out

[@Meongge12]

Great film and I'm very excited for red rocket

[@stopthephilosophicalzombie9017]

For some reason some of your videos remind me of that Eurythmics song Love is a Stranger.

[@ColombianThunder]

An incredibly unexpected heartfelt movie. Very sad.

[@gerchop9304]

Thoughts on cure 1997?

[@kaeslabyrinth]

need this so badly 😭

[@eternaldoorman5228]

I just watched some of the "Red Band Trailer" and it made me want to puke. Maybe it's because that world is way too close to home.

[@hoibsh21]

Lady Gaga, the laundromat is calling.

[@jakedeadpool5877]

The best movie of all time

[@Rick_Cleland]

👀

[@angelthman1659]

I loved it. A screwball comedy with sleazy people (prostitutes, pimps, druggies and adulterers).

[@AQuietNight]

I am aware of this movie but if you removed "Tangerine" from the title I would have had no idea what movie you were talking about. Normally you give a brief rundown of the story before you go on to how you view the quality of the film.

[@5days61]

Amazing movie. Very good depiction of mental illness

[@pebblestone2773]

Mental illness? Explain please

[@nerychristian]

Pretty dress.

[@sameerahmed-gx8js]

i honestly i didn't like this movie

[@HILAL19564]

You are a straight up beauty you know that?? . 😘😘😘
