I feel like our entire society would be SO much better if everyone did A LOT more of this. Just putting that out there.

So many of these movies are on my To-Watch list, but I did better than I expected.
There are the three I've seen that shook my core. Not necessarily the best or my favorite, but the most memorable:
The Father - A mind-blowing, soul-crushing portrayal of dementia
The Tree of Life - More than a few walked out of the screening I was in. I don't know if I liked it, but it was art
The Substance - Not for the squeamish, but brilliant

Random book from our home library:
📖 This is Shakespeare: How to Read the World's Greatest Playwright by Emma Smith
pickI read this book a while ago but figured I'd post about it anyway.
Did anyone else laugh out loud when you read this play? I thought it was hilarious. I would love to go see it at the theater one day, if they ever put it on. 100% pick!
This is not book-related (although his musical Falsettos won Best Book at the 1992 Tonys!) but I had to take a moment to mourn William Finn, one of the greatest musical theatre composers to ever do it. If you're a theatre kid, join me in listening to Falsettos, A New Brain, Spelling Bee, and Elegies on repeat today. If you're not a theatre kid, can I interest you in discovering some damn good music and poignant stories? #SeeMoreTheatre
