  The Delinquents 2023

  ★★★★ Watched 06 Apr 2024

  Beautiful shots lingering on the question what is freedom, and looking into the lives of people seeking and living it.
  - would you give up 3.5 years to gain 25?
  - can you be free while working for someone else?
  - would you limit someone else’s freedom to claim your own? Let them suffer to find their own?
  -  and seriously(!) why do we always associate freedom with horses and the country?

  American Fiction 2023

  ★★★★½ Watched 16 Apr 2024

  A very fun watch that managed to dance between sardonic social commentary, an earnest ode to storytelling, and just, genuinely great characters delivering heartfelt and funny dialog. Meta-perfection.

  Questions:
  - do you gravitate towards or seek out any types of trauma porn? Why or why not, and which kinds?
  - In what ways have you ever leaned into a stereotype placed upon you? In what scenarios would you imagine to exploit it?
  - affirmative action was ruled unconstitutional in universities for admissions, agree or disagree?
  - what’s the ideal ratio of „trash“ to „quality“ content consumption?
