Boundaries dir. Chloé Robichaud (2016)
A tiny island nation off Canada’s east coast enters the global arena when its natural resources become the focal point for international wheeling, dealing and politicking.
I know you’re all in on The Pitt right now, but are you going to watch Mid-Century Modern on Hulu? I saw it had Nathan Lane as a lead and went 👀!
honestly probably not! “cozy” shows are very much not my tempo (omitb is, was, and continues to be such an outlier because honestly i don’t even know why i started watching it, it is NOT the kind of show i like normally at all lol. anyways) and i’m already watching too much for me rn anyway. glad nathan is prospering! and hope it’s good for the people who do wanna watch lol

"I would like to be remembered as a filmmaker who enjoyed life, including pain. This is such a terrible world, but I keep the idea that every day should be interesting. What happens in my days – working, meeting people, listening – convinces me that it’s worth being alive.”
–Agnès Varda in the last interview of her life
Behold, a sprawling morass of movies (and films!) that I've seen and found, in my capacity as a picky person, to be Of Notable Quality.
maybe my favorite part of the pitt is how it addresses implicit biases in medicine and society. a south asian woman doctor recognizes a black woman patient has sickle cell after she's been mistreated by the paramedics. a doctor with an autistic sister is able to help a patient on the spectrum after another doctor is dismissive. one doctor challenges another over whether she fat shamed a patient, and if that bias hindered her judgment. a doctor confronts her older, male boss about prioritizing the safety of a teenage boy who's made threatening comments to girls, rather than the girls who may be harmed. a handsome white male asshole doctor who's been a resident for four years is stealing drugs, and the young woman asshole doctor is the one who realizes it (they've both acted like jerks, but shockingly he gets more leeway from viewers). idk man it's just nice to see actual wrestling with the intersection of misogyny, racism, fatphobia, and other issues in the medical profession. also the doctors are hot
