    To Die For

    ★★★½

    “You're not anybody in America unless you're on TV. On TV is where we learn about who we really are. Because what's the point of doing anything worthwhile if nobody's watching?”

    Nicole Kidman’s HAIRRRR deserves a credit in the titles. It’s hypnotically fuck ass bobbing. I love something with structure and the documentary style of editing is really fun.

    East of Eden

    ★★★★

    Handsomely acted by James Dean. Beautiful, vibrant colors and magical California valley’s. The overture is dreamy and so is the score. I love you, Jimmy!!

    The Substance

    ★★½

    Elizabeth throw eggs, Sue shake butt. 
    Elizabeth eat chicken, Sue produce chicken leg through belly button??

    Could’ve done without the ending which felt a little too extravagant. Margaret Qualley (Sue) and Demi Moore (Elizabeth Sparkle) are fantastic and give exactly what was needed.

    I think I started to disassociate because I forgot like half of the movie. Jaw assumed drop position 98% of the time.
