  Wild Mountain Thyme 2020

  ★ Watched 21 Mar 2025

  Powerfully dumb, not fun or charming like it should be. Excruciating characters and laughable reasons for why they’re excruciating. Christopher Walken innocent, he has a beautiful scene and gives a good performance throughout. And Ireland is beautiful, made me want to finally visit.

  Mississippi Masala 1991

  ★★★★½ Watched 16 Mar 2025

  One of those movies that turns you into a cartoon wolf kicking the ground and going AWOOGA AWOOGA the whole time. My new fashion inspiration moving forward is Denzel in this film. Spicy, romantic, and beautiful cinematography. Has a lot to say outside of the romance too.

  The Abyss 1989

  ★★½ Watched 26 Apr 2021

  If only this beautiful underwater footage and acting was incorporated into a movie that didn’t scream, “I’m going through a divorce.” The actors, especially Ed Harris makes solid work of a script that was doing them no favors.

  Little Miss Sunshine 2006

  ★★★★ Rewatched 01 Feb 2023

  I have a lot of nostalgia for this as one of the first “adult” movies I watched growing up. Fun script, great cast. This movie is probably why Sufjan Stevens is in every indie movie soundtrack/trailer.
