Pretty accurate depiction of this kind rorschach test event where nobody did the right thing but both sides are convinced they did. Lee is happy to make everyone look bad which makes it work far more than it has the right to. Could have really done without the end quotes.

Paris, Texas 1984
Years ago I made a girl I was dating watch this. She hated it and told me without a hint of irony that everyone in the film could have solved their problems with therapy. I knew then and there it wasn't going to work out.
Today I watched it with my wife and she cried through the whole thing.

a woefully misguided attempt at an anti racist film that's so bad it unintentionally loops around into actual nazi propaganda
half a star for ed norton I guess

Women Talking 2022
Aside from the drab visuals, didactic dialogue, and constant Twitterisms, the film's worst crime is its utter incuriousity about what it might actually be like to be a Bolivian Mennonite woman facing that kind of nightmare, offering instead a reimagining of the story as if it had happened to millennials with MFAs.
