    needed more fanny. needed to be ABOUT fanny!! could not bring myself to give much of a fuck about the marryot family, no matter how many tragedies the writers shoehorned into their lives.

    a documentary that both makes you feel good & hopeful yet simultaneously bummed out & pissed off. couldn’t have possibly known at the time how important reading rainbow was but reading rainbow was so fucking important!!!! seeing archival footage of levar and the kids giving their reviews and the ILLUSTRATIONS from the books instantly took me back to a time we’ll just never get back and that fucking sucks. we need reading rainbow so badly right now and I’m so bummed that…

    severely bummed that i didn’t like this! one of the more frustrating recent theater-going experiences. genuinely glad that this has/will resonate with many people. i wish i could connect with it in the same way, truly, since conceptually it ticks off SO many boxes for me, but it just fell so, SO flat.
