Julie & Julia 2009
A satisfying comfort-(re)watch. Was expecting a bit snappier writing from Ephron after being more familiar with her. Meryl, of course, is quite amazing, with a surprisingly sweet turn from Adams (how critics circles and major award season staples completely escaped her without even a nomination is yet unknown to me).

Promising Young Woman 2020
Whew, Carey Mulligan's back sure must ache as fuck carrying this whole movie on her shoulders.

Inside Out 2015
A yearly tradition - and running inside joke - with my friends and I was that when we were approaching our bedtime at 3AM on New Years' Eve, we'd put this on. I feel asleep every time.

And yet, somehow, it failed to immerse me fully. A worthy watch, still.
