    Heavier than anticipated. Highly recommend.

    Pairs well with airplane wine (red).

    Mental health break from work this afternoon to see my local Alamo’s last showing of this one. I enjoy M. Night’s work so no surprise that I liked this one.

    Great casting and a compelling script.

    Pairs well with playing hooky.

    I have wanted to watch this movie for fifteen years. What great potential the story had, but what a terrible piece of work.

    The scooter chase scene at the beginning was laughable and the whole movie didn’t age well in the era of #OscarsSoWhite. Not that this would be nominated for anything.

    Did NOT pair well with gin and a recent breakup. I needed something better.

    I read before seeing this that the film captured small town conversations similarly to Linklater’s earlier work. It couldn’t be more true!

    This movie was fantastic. The tight script. The music. The snail’s-pace zooms! The cinematography. The single shots. The dialogue! I loved it.

    The one thing I didn’t get or care for was the framing of the movie within the context of a show. Was that necessary? And if so, why did we jump in and out of it with seemingly no reason?
