Lost in the Movies: Movie Marathon (#WatchlistScreenCaps 4/22)

Movie Marathon (#WatchlistScreenCaps 4/22)


Between 8am, April 22 to 2am, April 23, I watched seven features, four shorts, and one featurette in a movie marathon, ranging from fantasy films to documentaries, from kids' cartoons to the dark avant-garde. Below are the screen-caps from the films I viewed, accompanied by basic info and an epigrammatic caption. Links are to my own posts on a given film.
