  ★★★★½ Watched 18 Mar 2025

  Seriously this movie is incredible. A great and riveting story, wonderful acting, wonderful dialogue, creative choices in cinematography??? This is Hitchcock's best in my opinion. 

  one other favorite part: the nerdy teenage girl who looked, talked, and acted exactly like me :D

  Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace 1999

  ★½ Watched 16 Mar 2025

Whenever there's a scene without Jerma, we got so sucked into the plot and the themes and then the funny streamer man showed up. It was like watching The Truman Show but some annoying guy keeps standing in front of the tv and trying to make you laugh.
