Land and Shade
A beautiful but grim film about a man slowly choking to death on the ash from the surrounding burning sugar cane fields, and his family struggling to make the decision about whether to hold on to the sliver they’ve carved out for themselves or gamble it on the unknown.

Hail, Caesar!
Hail, Caesar! was an actually lovely movie, even more beautiful than it was funny (and it was well funny). Surprisingly, Channing Tatum stood out as one of the best performances of the film.
Fucking YAAAAASSSSS! A goody bag with a caramel wafer inside!
Free bubbly and half-naked centurians at the Opening Gala party. CANNOT BELIEVE MY LUCK
Squeeeeeeeing at the Opening Gala!
The Witch
The Witch was excellent. Paced more like a story of family breakdown than a stereotypical horror, it evokes a great sense of time and place. Would recommend if you want to remember what it was like when you were little and scared of witches. Also an excellent film to make me thankful I didn’t have…
