The Florida Project - a bittersweet movie depending on which ending you subscribe to
Aftersun - a slow and subtle build to a heart breaking climax
The Iron Claw - a devastating movie based on an even more devastating true story
Sing Sing - overall a hopeful movie but there's a few very hard hitting human moments
I Saw The TV Glow - already brutal, and then you figure out what it's really saying
The Lobster - just bleak man
Beautiful Something Left Behind - a documentary about children dealing with grief

from gut wrenching to a light tug:
mustang (2015)- made me cry twice in one watch. (disclaimer: a lot of turkish people have mixed feelings abt how this movie represents turkish culture so watch with a grain of salt but also remember misogyny does in fact exist everywhere)
la chimera (2023)- there is a looming melancholy throughout the whole film but the last 30 minutes really did a number on me
thelma & louise (1991)- gut wrenching in a beautiful female friendship kinda way
lars and the real girl (2007)- the premise looks silly on paper and tbh it is but it still made me cry in the end nonetheless (maybe iām just a dweeb)
haru (1996)- early internet bonds. also more on the lighthearted side of things but tugs at the heart.

i started going to the cinema by myself last year and its the best thing ever. I dont know why it scared me so much to do things alone, however doing things solo actually made my social anxiety better. I love just hanging out by myself now; going to the cinema; a nature walk; solo study date at a cafe. Doing things alone will heal something in you

its just a voice constantly processing and reacting to my perceptions and emotions, answering and asking my brain different things. I also picture things like when i read or when im figuring out what to wear i can visualize it in my head if that makes sense? do other people not see things when they read? or when they think about something specific?
