That’s about as impactful a first-viewing as one can experience. I watched it to see it before the American remake, and then immediately vowed to never watch the remake.

Ha gotta love it. Glad I’m not the only one who feels compelled to account for the silly things sometimes.

I forgot Bening is in that too! Hard to beat her Carolyn Burnham performance in American Beauty, but I generally always enjoy her too.

Seeing her kill it for the first time in a long time in True Detective S4 was a treat. I never got to Nyad though.

Also agreed with JC here, but as a species, we do tend to stare at train wrecks and the like sometimes. Even Episode IX offers some flashes of decency… or, at least I didn’t hate it the second time 🤷‍♂️ Hope you enjoy!

Couldn’t agree more- it’s not perfect, but I liked the big swings and most of them landed for me. It was refreshing not being spoon-fed an algorithmic narrative.

100% perfect

That’s a great to place to be, all around.
