Sure, the film wasn’t a perfection, maybe a bit surreal, but it was so warm. I had a good time and a good laugh, something I needed probably. I am in love with the bond between Bernadette and her daughter. Them sitting in a car and singing Time after time while it’s raining outside the window is honestly so heart warming.
“I just need you to know how hard it is for me sometimes.”
”What’s hard?”
”The banality of life. But I retain the right to be incredibly moved by those little things no one notices.”
Sometimes all you need to feel better is a 3 star movie on your watchlist.

People like you must create. That's what you were brought into this world to do, Bernadette. If you don't, you become a menace to society.

i thought cate blanchett was doing a anna wintour biopic, apparently not and it is one of the very few watchable movies with the cold lighting, a really sweet movie (thanks to cate)
