i was feeling empty/hopeless today so i wanted to watch a romance film. a Saoirse Ronan lead, set in the 1950s (my fav timepiece) and an essential love story? *Brooklyn* had little room for failure in my eyes and it delivered! *Brooklyn *was the perfect amount of relatable, gut-wrenching, and feels good. A complimenting score alongside a well paced plot. this film was simple and effective. Saoirse Ronan might be the the 1900s set pieces actress GOAT.

i’ve never read the book so i’m completely clueless and it’s incredibly punishing if so. i enjoyed some points and adored both Jessie Buckley and Jesse Plemons’ performances. That’s about it.

watching this while hungover is NOT the best idea

Heretic was a good, mind stimulating, thrilling family watch! Hugh Grant was really great in this with his confident performance with the support of arguably Sophie Thatcher’s best act and Chloe East’s complimentary work!! i really enjoyed the premise of *Heretic* which was religion and interpretations, even dating back to the beginning of time. The runtime of almost 2 hours felt perfect, with enough time to build up the plot at hand.  not sure if i enjoyed the last 5-10 minutes though, as that ending was a bit underwhelming. Regardless, an interesting watch.
