    In the Mood for Love, A Cinematic Analysis | Total Take
    Feb 24 2026
    Wong Kar Wai’s 2000 masterpiece In The Mood For Love has captivated audiences since its (rather chaotic) premiere at Cannes Film Festival. A meditation on not just a feeling but the atmosphere of an era, the film managed to capture a haunting, mournful truth within its beauty. It continues to place in the top five of ‘best films of all time’ lists around the world, and continues to pull in new fans year after year. But what is it that makes this story of longing and regret so deeply affecting? This is the Total Take, where we break down the most analyzable films and TV shows of all time through visual storytelling, writing, symbolism, world, and impact.

  • Six Feet Under: the Best Kept Secret of TV's Golden Age? | A Cinematic Analysis

    Six Feet Under: the Best Kept Secret of TV's Golden Age? | A Cinematic Analysis
    Feb 21 2026
    HBO's Six Feet Under pretty much always comes up in discussions of the best tv shows of all time, but also somehow doesn’t seem to have been able to stake its spot in the larger cultural memory in the same way as hits of the same era like The Sopranos or The Wire. So today we’re taking a deeper look at this insightful, darkly hilarious show and what made it work so well – but also why some of those same traits that made it a critical darling and fan favorite might have been the reason it was almost left behind (and why it’s now, nearly 20 years after it that perfect finale, starting to find a whole new audience!) This is the Total Take, where we break down the most analyzable films and TV shows of all time through visual storytelling, writing, symbolism, world, and impact.

Over a quarter of a century after its release, Titanic continues to hold its place in the hearts of audiences across the world. Branded a sure flop during its hectic production with an ever bloating budget, the film ended up proving the critics wrong in more ways than one. This sentimental romantic film not only did well, it went on to become the highest grossing movie of all time (and remained such for over a decade.) Let’s turn back the clock and take a deeper dive into what specifically helped Titanic become not just one of the most iconic movies of its decade, but of all time.
