    The grass isn't always greener on the other side.

    Children are more perceptive than they let on hence it's better to tell them the truth. All in all, It's easy to care less until you're hit close to home; beautiful & sad film

    PS: The dumped doll scene had an eerie air about it; sort of subtle foreboding

    If ever 'the devil is in the details' was a film, then I'd be fonda this one to be it.

    What is justice? What is truth if not subjective? Regardless of facts, everyone holds their truth, because facts can be twisted hence truth is all about perspective.
    Never in my life did I think a movie that takes place in a single room would stimulate me and yet here I am in awe at the great acting I've just seen…

    "You've fought well Atreides" is such a beautiful double entendre now that I think about it
    I could watch this 100 times and not get tired, I tell ya

    Perfect blend of desire, lust, comedy, heartbreak & utter chaos.

    With all the Academy hype, naturally I had to check it out.
    Initially as I'm watching it, I'm thinking to myself, 'Are we just here to see cheeks get clapped?'
    However, as it progressed I came to appreciate the beauty in the chaos that ensued; Sean Baker you just got a new devotee.
    Hats off to Mikey Madison because she embodied that role fully you'd think they picked a random Brooklyn…
