    Deep Water

    ★★★

    Weirdly I saw Tracy Letts in 3 projects in a less than 48 hours; Deep Water, Ghostbusters Afterlife, and Winning Time. He’s the stand out performance in Deep Water - the only one smart enough to *almost* see through all the emotional mind games.

    The Hateful Eight

    ★★

    Anything good in this movie sadly got dwarfed by the man on woman violence. Women as punching bags for comic effect is definitively not my thing, don't care if it's what happens in real life or whatever justification fem haters enjoy mansplaining. It may be realistic that's how humanity is but totally disgusting to see in fiction/entertainment and how much pleasure these dudes got from hanging a supposedly "dangerous" woman. Entertainment... not for me.

    We never get to see her…

    I loved this meandering, subtle film with unspoken expression of Love and all its complexities and heartbreak.

    A beautiful exploration of repression in the patriarchy and coming into one's own authentic self, however tragic the journey may be.
