    No one blends awestruck wonder with abject terror quite like Spielberg.

    Maybe if the Harris campaign had done a cool train ad, we wouldn't be in this mess.

    When Harry Met Sally...

    ★★★★★

    Never forget what streaming took from us: the ability to have impromptu late-night phone dates where you bond over life’s problems, watch Casablanca on some random cable channel, and slowly fall in love.

    This is the kind of energy I need in my life. Bring back the shared experience of television!

  • Babylon

    Babylon

    ★★★★

    Serving as Damien Chazelle’s celebration of the very art of the moving picture, Babylon is a lot to process. It’s chaotic. It’s messy. It’s extravagant - decadent, even. It’s often beautiful, and occasionally disturbing. 

    It’s a film that attempts a great many things, to varying degrees of success. Much of it works. Some of it doesn’t. But all of it’s interesting.
