Maestro 2023
I am all for a movie that’s kind of about music but kind of more about an interesting marital dynamic. Carey Mulligan was undoubtedly the best part of this movie.

Marcel the Shell with Shoes On 2021
I spent about 15% of this movie crying, another 10% pretending not to be crying, and 70% grinning from ear to ear.
The remaining 5% was me wondering how in the hell I’m going to convince my family to watch a documentary about a one-eyed shell.
