Close, 2022: 10/10. A steady, gentle flow of tears throughout this entire movie. Most of the time because my heart was breaking, and some of the time because it was so beautiful. If you struggle with chronic guilt and shame, be careful with this one. Problemista, 2024: 100000/10 Had a deep, cathartic sob starting about 4/5ths of the way through the movie and lasted through the credits. Cried so hard Jose had to carry me out the theater. Cried because it reminded me what it means to be human, how it feels to have a dream, and how difficult it can be to exist in the world. Am I Okay?, 2024: 5/10. I really really wanted to like this one. Going into it knowing it was a coming out/coming of age I expected to cry, but I only felt a little teary during a montage of Dakota Johnson’s character “coming into herself,” and that might have only been because she’s so skinny and bangs look so good on her. The Holdovers, 2023: 8/10. Loved. Cried every time Da’Vine Joy Randolph did anything. What a performance. To be fair, I watched the Oscars and her acceptance speech before seeing this one and wept like she was my own daughter (I was so proud of her and all her hard work,) so that may have influenced my experience of the movie. Overall, a thoughtful exploration of people in pain. Definitely some misty moments.

This is a Rec on how to stay sane, not how to get out, unfortunately. I have been (mostly) unemployed for like almost a year aside from short stints or gigs. it’s been awful awful awful BUT AMC A List became my light at the end of the tunnel, truly. $25 a month for 3 “free” movies every week. I use it as a treat after trudging through applications or to have something to look forward to. And, yes, you can watch as many free movies as you want on your laptop in your room but having a place to go or a plan at the end of a grueling day is great.

New York's Hottest Club is....Film Noir Cinema's Thursday Night Film Club! On April 18th at 9PM I'll be showing a personal favorite film of mine at the greatest little theatre in the city, so come on down to 122 Meserole Avenue in Greenpoint. Tickets are $10 cash, $5 beers and $3 sodas, plus a myriad of pierogi joints nearby for you to grab a bite at beforehand.
