  That sure was a movie!

  Some of it hits pretty close to home; I think it will age well as we gain some distance from the current cultural context.

  I appreciate the big swing that Francis took with this one.

  French Exit 2020

  ★★★½ Watched 26 Feb 2025

  Love Patrick Dewitt's novel and this is a very good adaptation. Between the dialogue (which alternates between razor-sharp Tarantino and David Lynch) and the very careful set design and cinematography, It's as if Wes Anderson stopped taking his Xanax.
