    really interesting to look back on this now. the 40’s offered many women the opportunity to work outside the home, but the 50’s saw a wide-spread return of the nuclear family and traditional women’s roles. this feels similar to the cycle of the 2000s that we’ve just watched, where the obama era has given way to an uptick in conservative values.  some of us will continue to push liberal ideals, even when faced with powerful institutions and societal pressures.

    this was cute. cinematography was nice and casting was really good. i wish it had focused more on the new group of pilots than on tom cruise and his ex girlfriend.

    paz vega and adam sandler making heart eyes at each other…. bring back yearning. this was so sweet. powerful movie about family, parenting, and identity. the style of this was so warm and comforting, it drew me right into the world. the grandma and the white mom were having a read off.

    yeah slayed. chloe grace moretz running through the woods in a ‘90s adidas sweatsuit was nearly as horny as jodie foster in the opening of silence of the lambs. everything this movie stands for too, this really shined a light on bigoted christianity sects. if you liked this, you should check out yes, god, yes starring the talented natalie dyer.
