This is the first post in what I'm calling my Double Feature Series, in which I post a pairing of two movies that I love. These movies will usually be made 20+ years apart and are thematically related somehow. I try to draw out these relations, and in doing so, bring two seemingly disconnected films together, into one thought.
The first entry in this series is two of my absolute favourite movies:
Wild Strawberries (1957) and Five Easy Pieces (1970)
These films both explore themes of meaning in one's life, the relationship between success and happiness, alienation, the strained relationship between father and son, and the dismissal of women. I highly recommend them.
