Wild that #Avatar was made in 2009 and is still just as ethereal.

Filmmaking technology has advanced so much since then yet the visual magic of Pandora holds up even today. AI slop could never #filmsky

Did not expect to start the weekend sobbing over a romcom 😭

I watched A Nice Indian Boy on a whim and was so caught off guard by its emotional depth and tenderness. Such an enduring, layered film about the ways we express love and connection with each other #filmsky

Favourite film from your least favourite genre? #filmsky

I usually shy away from anything remotely associated with horror, but I Saw the TV Glow opened my eyes to how multifaceted this genre is.

Currently reading Hamnet because nothing makes me pick up a book faster than a movie adaptation on the way 👀 #filmsky #booksky

The way I didn't care for The Devil Wears Prada sequel until I saw this look. These costumes are gonna end me 🥵

Anne Hathaway and Emily Blunt on set of The Devil Wears Prada 2. I was not emotionally prepared for this #filmsky

Why haven't I seen anyone talking about this animated gem on Netflix!?

#LostinStarlight is about romance, grief, and space travel. A visually breathtaking slow burn that will have you bawling through the final act (don't say I didn't warn you).

Highly recommend for fans of Your Name ✨️ #filmsky

Gromit tucked in bed with A Room of One's Own by Virginia "Woof" is the greatest cinematic moment of this century #booksky #filmsky
