  Eighth Grade 2018

  ★★★★★ Watched 15 Aug 2018

  I drove to a theater that was kinda far from my house b/c none near me were screening this. 

  I watched this at 2:55 on a Wednesday, by myself. So, i was literally the only one in the room. Which made this experience so much more enjoyable. 
  Besides everything hitting so close to home i absolutely loved the way it was shot. The car scene, the dinner scene, the pool scene. Every small detail really changed the mood for me in this movie.

  American Animals 2018

  ★★★★ Watched 20 Sep 2018

  What a wildly, unique directing style. I can think of maybe 3 other movies that are somewhat similar to this. (I haven’t watched a ton but still) I thought the narrative was really entertaining and this was perfectly casted. The soundtrack was amazing too. I look forward to watching any future work from Bart Layton.
