Watching with no understanding of the plot, other than knowing it was an Adam Sandler dramatic performance, really adds to the general feeling of this film.
It feels like a thriller for so much of it due to the uneasiness of the score and how over bearing it is. But it works.
The romance feels weird and that works so well.

Yacht Rock: A DOCKumentary 2024
I usually dismiss the term “yacht rock” and the bands associated with it, but this documentary showed the actual heights they were at in the late 70s before MTV that I had no ideas. The music was an extension of pop music rather than anything “alternative” coming up a the time. Most of my music knowledge of this time is from punk to post punk to new wave and on, so seeing this happening in parallel was super interesting, alongside their influences and what came after.

Godzilla Minus One 2023
Despite the existential threat that Godzilla poses in the film, it truly has some great character drama for a monster movie.
