it was okay... at first i really didn't like it but the last 2/3s was pretty good! it seemed cheap, i think. i understand what it was going for though. i liked the visuals. i think the acting was kind of shitty though, idk. jenna seems to only be able to play one character.

pete seeger: the power of song
i love you, pete. you've changed so many lives. what can i say? he is my comfort music when i can't really handle music. he brings me hope when i feel like the world is going to fall apart. the world would be a better place if every kid could hear him.

genuinely fucking hated it. thinly veiled trans panic bullshit AGAIN. dude i don't care if the director's dad was gay or whatever the fuck ever. even the gay psych receptionist? are we joking? garbage.

not good. hated it. BAILEY thought it was an a24 movie and TRICKED me. i liked the visuals thought, just not a lot of thought... or maybe too many thoughts?

maXXXine
good for HER she is a STARRRR. i saw a lot of bad reviews ab this but it's a b-horror vibe and the story rounded itself out pretty good.

the killing of a sacred deer
idk what this was honestly... someone check on ari aster's dad PLEASE (it was a pretty good depiction of grief and justice, love the absurdism and uncomfortabilty)

brokeback mountain

i love the depiction of discomfort on drugs in weird situations. so real... good reminder that people are complicated.

problemista
SO good, LOVE julio's absurdism and i hope we see more of his movies. so autism coded. i love that it shows how fucking stupid getting yourself anywhere under capitalism is. sometimes it's so hard getting people to show empathy it feels like a constant uphill battle, ugh.

challengers
i want two boyfriends and i want the boyfriends to be boyfriends - zendaya herself. mixing romantic passion/desire with aspirational passions is usually SO painful, confusing, and devasting, but can be addicting to someone who is insecure. i didn't understand the movie at first but that is my final conclusion, i think.

civil war
if i am being honest this one really sent me into a spiral. very good movie, though. a little too real to digest for me.

mulan I & II
on bailey's comfort movies list. silly and fun! bailey came out soon after... coincidence? for the time it came out, good feminist 'girl power' for kids to see. not really my kind of thing though

imaginary
i already don't like supernatural movies, first of all. this movie was boring and drawn out. felt really awkward in a bad way.

drive-away dolls
win for the lesbians into giantism i guess! fun gay movie which i enjoyed. i feel like this is the kind of movie you watch when you're high and want to laugh but not see straight people, so a banger. feels like a dumb 90s movie in a good way.

all of us strangers
ummm... genuinely will be a gay classic tragedy along with brokeback in a couple of years. so heartbreaking. (male) gay connection is so important and something that is so hard to explain to straight people. it really shows the loneliness of being gay and struggling with SA.
