If I Had Legs I Would Kick You (2025) has given me the most uncomfortable and claustrophobic experiences I've had this year. A bold film that encourages the viewer to sympathize with the person society often ostracizes, the self-loathing mother. I was transfixed. 4/5 🌟 An extraordinary film.

Still struggling to find a job that has me working 12 months instead of just 10, but at least I got up to 400 films watched this year so that’s something

Got rejected from another job and didn’t get an interview. How do people get jobs in this economy?

Just applied for a job that I’m way overqualified for but it pays more than my current job now. Can’t wait to be rejected for it cause I’m too overqualified cause I have a masters and the minimum requirement is an associates degree.

If you’re still on a Redford kick I can’t recommend THE MILAGRO BEANFIELD WAR enough. It’s Redford’s best directing work imo, and a very timely story about choosing not to be complicit in your own demise.

Just happened upon this old interview with Peter Weller, full of interesting stuff I’d never heard before. “Sounds like a fascinating guy,” I thought. Then I saw the byline. www.vulture.com/2013/05/pete...

I didn’t realize this debate until I started shooting the movie.

I'm still shocked Preston Sturgess got away with character discussing trading sexual favors for money with a man dubbed "The Wienie King" in The Palm Beach Story (1942) during the peak of the Hays Code. They even say sex during a time people in films/tv couldn't say pregnant.
