Amazon's @overcompensating.bsky.social is a crazed romp with LOL and tear-inducing moments that manages to echo parts of my college experience despite my then being a closeted dork not a closeted jock. Even if the actors are all 30!

I may put an image into the end of Act I of a script because it motivates the protagonist to embark on his journey (it's evidence he runs across). It's hard to describe with the specificity I'd need and is an "aha!" moment ... Talk me down! Or don't! #scriptsky

I watched GOODFELLAS last night for the first time in years and am again amazed it didn't win Best Picture (and Lorraine Bracco was incredible but had the misfortune of being up against Whoopi that year)
