Movies have been a constant source of entertainment, and we keep going back to them for an instant dose of dopamine, even when they have nothing to offer other than a good laugh and great meme material (Welcome and Hera Pheri come to mind?). But more than that, they have the ability to comfort us, give a utopian view of reality and hope for a better world, teach us a little something or just serve as an escape.
How we watch and consume content is a deeply personal experience. ‘Cinephiles’ sit and scratch their heads trying to analyse a movie, while some watch it just for fun. For me, it’s both. I’ll hit pause multiple times, rewind just to hear a dialogue again, or gush over camera movements and lighting (perks of being a journalism student, I guess?). Sometimes, all logic goes out the window, and it’s just me, my big bowl of popcorn and a cheesy rom-com. So, you can think of me as someone who likes to watch anything and everything—I’ll watch Interstellar one day and try to make sense of it, and watch K3G the next. And so, obviously, I can’t wait to see what this year has in store for us.
2023 looks like a promising and exciting year with SRK and Anne Hathaway making comebacks, and movies directed by Christopher Nolan and Greta Gerwig lined up. But this isn't just another list featuring titles like Pathaan, Pushpa, Barbie, and Oppenheimer. While these are interesting movies we’re looking forward to, here's a bunch of movies you might not have heard of, but deserve all your love this year.
