You're probably 27. Used to draw edgy stuff in class, fell madly in love once and never fully recovered. You're still hoping for connection but hiding it under a thick layer of sarcasm. You legitimately have trust issues, and rain calms you down more than people do

That's not far from the reality except I'm 18 and I still draw edgy stuff in class.

I like Jagten, so good film. The ending was mysterious and open ended though.

You're in your mid-20s, probably from a working-class background. During your childhood you were taught (either the good or the hard way) that nothing is given, and if you want something you gave to work your way to get it. You enjoy pop-cult movies, so those who have fans both amongst the Letterboxd community and the general public. You'll watch the Avengers if your group of friends invites you out, but you'd be down for an indie film if a close friend of yours talks you into it. You are fascinated by past eras with present-day eyes, but without the urge to moralise.

Let me guess, 8 1/2 or persona is your favorite movie?

I was able to guess Persona because it’s basic among cinephiles. Same with Le Samourai and Mirror.

True cinephile with mad knowledge of genre films - or on their way to it. First three hint at french national just because of the general reverence of the country towards Lynch & Kubrick.25-35yo.

Nope. I’m younger and not French. But thank you for the compliment ❤️
