BEST of 2025 (SO FAR) - Part 1 | Badass Ravi Kumar & everything else! #164

We're 3 months late to the BEST OF (SO FAR) party because, well, just.The format we've been using for the past two years is as follows: rather than simply listing our favorite films of the year, we categorize them in the same way [insert any Award show name] categorizes them.Because we like to ramble a lot, Part 1 of the Best of 2025 (So Far) focuses on our in-depth discussions of film technique ("Best Editing," "Best Cinematography," etc), performance ("Best Lead Performance," "Best Supporting Performance"), and "Best Scene."Part 2, which was meant to be an hour long but also ended up being over 2 hours, will include discussions on our choices for "Best Director," "Best Film," "WTF (Affectionate) Film of the Year," and "Best Screenplay."Do listen and let us know -- amicably, of course -- how much you (dis)agree with us!TIME CODESIntroduction - [00:00:00 - 00:03:42]Best Editing - [00:03:42 - 00:41:37]Best Cinematography - [00:41:37 - 01:26:56]Best Song/Music - [01:26:56 - 02:16:26]Best Scene - [02:16:26 - 02:38:20]Best Supporting Performance - [02:38:20 - 02:56:08]Best Performance - [02:56:08 - 03:19:08] Impromptu Outro - [03:19:08 - 03:22:31]Follow our Instagram page: https://instagram.com/queenisdead.filmpodcast.QID LINKTREE: ⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/queenisdead⁠⁠.Follow us on Instagram at:Adithiyan:⁠ https://www.instagram.com/curioseradithiyan/.⁠Amartya:⁠ https://www.instagram.com/amartya25/.⁠Dhruv: ⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/terminalcinema/⁠⁠⁠Aryan: ⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/aryantalksfilm/⁠⁠⁠Cris: ⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/prdscris/⁠⁠⁠Follow us on Letterboxd at:Adithiyan: ⁠https://letterboxd.com/curioseradi/⁠.Amartya: ⁠https://letterboxd.com/amartya/⁠.Dhruv: ⁠⁠⁠https://letterboxd.com/aterminalcinema/⁠⁠⁠Aryan: ⁠⁠⁠https://letterboxd.com/aryantalksfilms/⁠⁠⁠Cris: ⁠⁠⁠https://letterboxd.com/crislim/⁠⁠All Audio Excerpts may not have been used under the “Fair Use Provisions” of the Indian Copyright Act because Cris loves "Badass Ravi Kumar" that much.
