Almost got 2.5 but it’s a musical with 95% ass songs (The 5% is the son’s one song). Impressed I didn’t hate it though. Some nice directing in there and cool/dramatic use of lighting. Zoe really carried.

The Brutalist 2024
Not so American dream, concrete, cold. Had to really process this one but think I love it. You really do feel it. Not dramatized not glamorized but real and slow and numb.

The Holdovers 2023
Changing my review a year later because damn this is the new Christmas classic. Such witty dialogue, real people, fantastic shots, and overall cozy feeling. It’s perfectly paced. I also love the feeling of the empty school campus because it doesn’t feel at all cold or lonely but there’s a peace and comfort to the empty space and quiet. I would live in this movie.

Manchester by the Sea 2016
Great writing, great acting. Casey deserves all the praise for this role. All of it felt very human and raw in a very real non-dramatized or glamorized Hollywood way. A slow burning gut wrenching punch to the heart.
