Let's face it: Tully did it better.
I couldn't even watch it in one sitting. It's forced and artificial. I like Amy Adams and Scoot McNairy (hence 2 stars) and I hate them being wasted like this.
Nothing new about motherhood and the 'transformation' trope is ridiculous.
Hard to believe that Marielle Heller directed this.
Seriously people, watch Tully instead.

Challengers 2024
I've never thought I would say this: well done, Golden Globes! At least you gave some noms to Challengers and Reznor & Ross won their well deserved award.
I didn't expect huge success at the Oscars but zero nominations is a fucking joke!
All my love to Luca, Josh, all the crew and to Zendaya, cause if it wasn't for her this film would not have been made.
And as Patrick would say: 'Fuck off!' (the academy)

Mississippi Burning 1988
The feeling of anger and helplessness is so strong everytime I watch it. It's a powerful story about rasism, luckily told in a simple way which makes it more effective. It's also a great study of small town mentality. No one makes people keep their heads down and minding their own business better than their friends and neighbours. The cycle that's hard to break.
I loved Hackman in this. This performance was kind of an essence of his acting style. Deeply human, warm, funny, charismatic yet ordinary in best possible way. Always so real.
