To say this movie is just about depression is a disservice (but also if you haven’t been on antidepressants and don’t get the bath scenes maybe *it isn’t for you*). I really think this movie is a warm hug and I find it really comforting! It is a nice reminder about the meaninglessness of existence. I love to be reminded how stupid a promotion is in the face of the reality that we can be blasted out of existence in a millisecond. Death is a nice equalizer! F* me gently with a chainsaw before I ever watch Dancer in the Dark again, though.

The true double feature of the year is not barbenheimer, but Barbie Things. Or Poor Barbie.

The Monkey 2025
Between this and Longlegs, I wonder if Osgood Perkins has complicated feelings about his closeted dad Anthony Perkins and his mom that died in 9/11 and passing down his generational traumas to his kids.
