The Gift 2015
I saw this at home back around the time it first came out & I loved it so I had been curious to see if this would hold up on rewatch. All I remembered was the insane amount of tension in this.

Taylor Tomlinson: Look at You 2022
I was a fan of her first special so I loved that she upped the ante for this one. In particular, I was impressed with her use of callbacks in her first special and those were even more phenomenal in her follow-up. And not to sound too cliche, but the way she discussed her battles with mental health & balancing that discussion between humor & seriousness was inspiring. Overall, a fantastic special.

Loved the revolving door all-star supporting cast Wes Anderson always has too (was not expecting to see Jude Law in this). Dug the nod to Shawshank Redemption too.
Overall, not my favorite Wes Anderson film…

Maybe I’m too easy to please but I thought this was really entertaining. Reminded me a lot of the show Maniac (one I liked a lot when it first came out & have been meaning to revisit).
The soundtrack choices in this were spectacular, especially in the first…
