‘ friends dont lie. ‘ honestly, i am speechless. this show began when i was in elementary school and it was so bittersweet to see them graduate in the epilogue, im graduating highschool this year. the duffers are allergic to an unhappy ending and for that i am grateful. this season was overhated, it made perfect sense to wrap it up the way they did. beginning with the graduation, i was so teary eyed. i cant not make this about myself, i love this show too much. it was just so perfect, and dustins monologue encapsulates the entire show. jopper canon, beautiful. the older kids all reminiscing on top of the radio station, so touching and genuinely amazingly written conversation- and all of it leads into the end of a dnd campaign that intricately weaves the kids perfect endings. lumax canon forever, dustin studying and meeting up with steve, will finding love that will be reciprocated, and mike becoming a writer. not everything is meant to be and the duffers understand that. i love janes ending being uncertain, but i too will live in denial with mike. shes found two waterfalls and that’s beautiful. happy new year, im honored to have been a part of this journey for the decade its gone on for. i love this cast, the writers, it’s been amazing.

★ ‘an honest man has nothing to fear, so I’m trying my best not to be afraid.’ - frank abagnale jr. this might be one of my favorite films. the score, the acting, writing, its truly incredible. beginning with the plot and character development, the writers make sure that we love each character, at least our protagonists- there is no true villain (and that is what makes this story just perfect). its hard to hate frank abignale, he’s really just a kid. he was torn apart by his parents divorce and as we had seen, the apple just didn’t fall to far from the tree unfortunately. regarding carl, he’s simply doing his job. he’s a dedicated hardworker. as the audiences love for abignale is already established, and as abinale does not dislike carl, the audience doesn’t either. carl isn’t supposed to be a villain. by breaking away from these norms, that there’s a bad guy, audiences leave the film with a sense of satisfaction that a typical happy ending doesn’t provide. beyond the storytelling, dicaprio and hanks performances are truly perfect, and their chemistry together is just amazing to see. every scene of theirs is entertaining, even if they’re not both on screen together. i love it. actors performances are perfect all around, i absolutely loved amy adams as brenda- god. her chemistry with dicaprio was beyond perfect, i truly loved them together. it broke my heart when she turned him in, because, i mean, who wasn’t rooting for them? i could go on and on, but the film speaks for itself. absolutely incredible. spielburg is phenomenal.

costume department outdid themselves. ♡

im sorry, i was bored. so bored. i’ll try to rewatch this.
