  Jacob's Ladder 1990

  ★★★★½ Watched 25 Mar 2025

  There were some great freaky scenes in this one. I loved the practical effects! Very eerie vibe and have a really good build of tension - the score really added to everything.

  The portrayal of women was incredibly flat to pretty awful, but maybe we can chalk that up to a man’s mind slowly unraveling throughout the movie.

  Drive-Away Dolls 2024

  ★★★ Watched 25 Mar 2025

  I can’t rate a movie with sapphic Margaret Whaley below a 3. It felt a little all over the place and the humor just didn’t land for me in some ways.

  No Other Land 2024

  ★★★★★ Watched 04 Mar 2025

  Heartbreaking and powerful. Reading and hearing about the atrocities Israel is committing in the West Bank is so different from seeing it, especially through the eyes of someone experiencing it. To see what Palestinian people, especially children, have to endure to try to stay in the only home they’ve ever known is so enraging and saddening.

  Sing Sing 2023

  ★★★★★ Watched 23 Feb 2025

  Wow. It is so powerful to witness this group of men telling their story in their own words, on their own terms. I have never seen a film where so many people had the opportunity to play themselves, especially coming from an environment that so intensely controls and manipulates a person’s narrative. Probably the best movie of 2024.
