  One of those movies where you watch and nothing happens, but also so much happened. I was crying at the end and I didn’t even know why.

  A Real Pain 2024

  ★★★★½ Watched 17 Dec 2024

  The fact that Jesse Eisenberg wrote, directed, and starred in this movie is so beyond impressive. The scene where Dave and Benji place the rocks on the doorstep of their grandmother’s home is such a beautiful synopsis of the entire film’s balance of satire with pain and emotional complexity. It shows the American jewish experience and generational trauma from the Holocaust through 2 beyond different characters who are both deeply flawed yet admirable and hilarious
