It’s been a while.
Months actually.
It’s not that I haven’t been seeing movies. It’s just that I haven’t felt like writing about them. It’s not that I haven’t seen some amazing films. I have. I don’t necessarily want to blame it on Trump, but it does feel like the state of our country has sapped nearly every creative impulse from my body.
This has always been a hobby for me. I love movies and I know just enough to share my two cents about them. Maybe I’ve motivated someone to experience a film they wouldn’t have otherwise seen.
I had at times thought about shutting this site down. Move on. Do something else. But, that felt like quitting and I don’t like that feeling.
So, I’m back baby!
I’m not going to post long reviews of all the movies I’ve seen between I FELL PRETTY (as if that didn’t kill my enjoyment of movies entirely) and now.
What you’ll see in the next few days is one post with very brief reviews of what I’ve seen. Some movies deserve a bigger review and you’ll get those too.
This blog isn’t about getting clicks or shares or whatever. It’s about sharing my experience and opinions. Maybe I will get you to see a movie you weren’t planning to see. Maybe you’d like to discuss it with me. Maybe I’m shouting into the void. Doesn’t really matter.
I hope to be here more regularly. And I hope you enjoy what I share.
