- Dicks! The Musical: Aaron Jackson and Josh Sharp are two of the funniest people alive and this is a bizarre, disgusting masterpiece. A Parent Trap story for people who think twincest is funny and love Megan Mullally - Doom Generation: Violent, horny, and about 20 years ahead of it's time aesthetically. This is a movie full of hot people doing bad things what's not to like? *Bonus! A Parker Posey cameo how fun -Shortbus: This is my absolute favorite movie. Fair warning- there is a LOT of full frontal nudity, sex, fluids etc. HOWEVER, underneath all that is a very tender moving story about love, intimacy and connection. It also happens to be genuinely laugh out loud funny. Directed and written by John Cameron Mitchell (Hedwig and the Angry Inch) I cannot recommend this movie enough if you have the stomach for it.

a lot of these are not that critically acclaimed but they are still really fun watches! 1. SAVING FACE (2008): it is a really touching film which is set in flushing ny, it is centred around a young Chinese woman and her exploration of her sexuality. surprisingly a very easy watch but also very heartfelt. 2. FRANCES HA (2013): a bit basic but still amazing, the main character which is played by Greta Gerwig navigates feeling lost in her 20s. me and my best friend quote this movie all the time. 3. COOL RUNNINGS (1993): i grew up with this movie always in the background, it is such a classic. very funny premise: based around a jamaican bobsledding team. very lovable characters, it is a comfort watch 100%. 4. SAVE THE LAST DANCE (2001): it is def a guilty pleasure watch, it's not critically acclaimed but when has that ever stopped me. great soundtrack, vibes overall are so comforting. the storyline is very predictable but like idc. 5. 50/50 (2011): as much as i don't like joseph gordon levit, this movie is so funny and heartfelt. 6. SHE'S THE MAN (2006): when i was 14 i had to run a play in my class and we got assigned shakespeare's twelvth night, and my teacher said to watch this movie. it is such a funny movie, again quite a guilty pleasure watch but so good. 7. INTO THE WILD (2008): this rec is quite film bro but the true story it is based on was a hyperfixation of mine for years. it is a dramatic retelling of the life of chris mc candless (made my dad cry which is not an easy feat) 8. UNE FILLE FACILE (2019): set in cannes and follows two cousins. speaks a lot to female relationships and may be my fav on the list. i won't spoil anything here, i just love it and you should watch it (it is also very beautiful) 9. THE HAND OF GOD (2021): set in 1980s napoli, follows a boy and his love for football as well as his complicated family life. such a gorgeous film

I'm 20 minutes in and am already thinking about rearranging my four favorites on letterboxd. I love Parker Posey and want to be too hot to be a librarian all day. I missed buying tickets for the Valentine's Day showing at Vidiots but they added another show on Friday... my mouse hovers above the purchase button as we speak.

this movie could’ve changed the trajectory of my life if I had watched it as a girl… plot: new Catholic school girl (SJP) loves to dance and wants to be on Chicago DanceTV. Comes the coolest girl in town, her new best friend, Lynne, and takes her to the audition. She meets a guy, they hate each other, until… fave part was Lynne (I’m in love with her), Janey & Jeff’s growth, the family dynamics, & Sister Sledge fucking it up on the pole a perfect movie for the girls and the gays ALSO now I know why SJP is built like that

Funny, weird, existential. Feels like it could have been made this year.
