From Wikipedia:
Strange Days is a 1995 American cyberpunk thriller film directed by Kathryn Bigelow, written by James Cameron and Jay Cocks, and produced by Cameron and Steven-Charles Jaffe. It stars Ralph Fiennes, Angela Bassett, Juliette Lewis, and Tom Sizemore. Set in the last two days of 1999, the film follows the story of a black marketeer of recordings that allow a user to experience the recorder's memories and physical sensations as he attempts to uncover the truth behind the murder of a prostitute.
A major box-office bomb, Strange Days nearly derailed Bigelow's career, making little more than a sixth of its $42 million production budget. Upon release, the film polarized film critics; some reviewers praised its gritty atmosphere and the performances by Fiennes and Bassett, while others criticized it for failing to comment on its violence. Nevertheless, the film's critical standing has improved over the years, with many fans feeling that the film has been overlooked by a casual mass audience and misguided critics. At the 22nd Saturn Awards, Bassett won Best Actress and Bigelow became the first woman to win the Best Director award.

I know this edit isn't typical to the Sydcarmy content I feature on this channel, but I'd still like to take a moment to pay tribute to this cyberpunk cult classic, and to Angela Bassett's performance as Lornette "Mace" Mason, in particular. Also shoutout to the WGA and SAG-AFTRA, whose artists skillfully transport us to worlds very similar to our own, or to dimensions fantastical and farfetched, and everywhere in between! Still rooting for you guys! ❤🙏🏽
excuse me ralph fiennes AND angela bassett together ????? joining forces to maximize their slayage ??????? I NEED TO WATCH THIS MOVIE ASAP

It's not everyone's cup of tea, I myself have only ever watched it twice despite how much I adore the main characters, because of the disturbing themes / imagery it contains re: sexual violence and police brutality etc., but I love it nonetheless. I wish it was a bigger commercial and critical success back when it was released, it was ahead of it's time.
Ooooooo shittt!! This is some next level shit!! Never seen this movie but it’s look greats!!! Going to totally stream it this weekend!!! This is so so good !!! Bassett such a totally hot badass in all the things she do!! Great music choice and I love how beautifully in sync it is especially in the beginning when Lornette was on the phone, kicking ass , and when they were underwater!! Well done as always ❤

Thank you! I hope you like it when you do see it, but I'd recommend you check out some content warnings on it on IMDb or skim through it's Wikipedia page first just in case it has anything thing that may be triggering for you. It has a happy ending, but there's some dark shit in it along the way.

Okay, so I rewatched this again after leaving my last comment, and I'd really recommend this if you still haven't seen it - there are some parallels Lenny and Mace's relationship and Syd and Carmy's. It was a much easier watch upon rewatching it
