Movies Watched, Dec. 2022
December was rather hard. But the movies that I got to watch help me get through it. Felt foggy all month as I stumble towards the end of the year. As always, being on a long flight helped me watch a lot of films.

Movies Watched, Sept. to Oct. 2022
Took October as a chance to reset. Continuing to watch a lot of comedies, a few of them were really surprising. Trying to stay afloat with the absurdity of it all. Noticing that I am losing the stamina for gore and violent films that feel hollow or purely referential. We’re so close to end of…

Movies Watched, Aug. 2022
August was kind of confusing, frazzled and sweaty. In a funny twist, the films that I watched ended up being much hornier than my day to day life at this moment. Excited that the weather is going to cool off soon, I hope. Is everyone ok?

Movies Watched, March 2022
March flew by pretty quickly, more than I expect it would. This note is also way too late, between traveling and changing jobs, things felt pretty hectic.

Movies Watched, Feb. 2022
The weather has become increasingly unexpected, even for New York. The world continues to spiral in terrifying ways, with no clear sign that it would change directions at least in the short term. I keep thinking about the work that you need to do to keep bitterness and hopelessness at bay. I keep thinking about…
