  Never Been Kissed 1999

  ★★ Rewatched 24 Nov 2021

  Nothing makes any sense. That prom scene lives forever in my head, though.

  One More Time with Feeling 2016

  ★★★★★ Watched 01 Dec 2016

  "Because someone’s gotta sing the stars
  And someone’s gotta sing the rain
  And someone’s gotta sing the blood
  And someone’s gotta sing the pain"

  I struggled to connect with Skeleton Tree while listening to it as an album, but experiencing it in this format has struck me with a new appreciation.

  This was beautiful; heartbreaking; self-aware; surprisingly funny at times; guarded at first and then so intimate.

  His Girl Friday 1940

  ★★★★ Watched 03 Apr 2016

  "'Hildy, don't be hasty. Remember my dimple. Walter.'"

  Amazing chemistry and dialogue between the two leads. I picked up more of a camaraderie than a typical romance, which seems pretty ahead of its time for 1940.
