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
why can i never find anything at the store anymore? and this goes for thrift stores too. Everything is made of bad materials, bad quality, and everything just looks weird? It sits weird on the body, nothing looks nice anymore. Like comparing the old juicy tracks and the new ones? WHAT THE HELL IS THAT??? Why cant they make it the same way anymore, then that gets donated and the thrift stores get filled with shit clothing.
