Film reviewer and podcaster.
Prior to 2021, I didn’t assign star ratings to films; if it only has a heart from me, I recommend it.

The best version of ourselves is the version that seeks out opportunities to help and be kind to others while also being inwardly kind and growth-minded.

Free Guy 2021
Mostly just background noise for me this time around, but this movie is still so much fun. Still gets a half-star bump for Paperman too.
I would’ve loved to be in that original pitch meeting. “So, listen, I wrote this banger of a score for the short film attached to Wreck-It Ralph in 2012, and I’d love to repurpose it to represent the love for our main female character and main AI character but TWIST, it’s actually the love of our two main human characters and it’s gonna be just as much of a banger this time around, what do you think?”

Into the Spotlight 2023
This movie shares all the best qualities of my favorite documentaries: it taught me something new, it made me laugh, it made me cry, and it made me care.

Promising Young Woman 2020
What a beautiful, enraging, wonderful, devastating film!

I can’t wait to see it again!
