the formally independent (recently acquired by studio movie grill LOL) River Oaks Theatre was a place where i saw so many beautiful movies and seeing this one rlly sutck with me! twas a feast for the eyes
this literally sounds so fucking stupid but recently i have been physically acting on my excitement and it's so silly that it makes me smile. the other day i was listening to a record that was so good and that was making me so excited that i tried to do a handstand. for like a few minutes or so. u can't buy that kind of happiness!! find something that just gets u so fucking hype and dance like nobody's watching.
Cindy is so special to me. The way she captures her characters (almost exclusively self portraits, but playing different roles) invokes something implicitly understood. I can't explain it very well. I think finding her at a young age shaped my tastes forever.
i didn't get this alex g album when it came out but now i do. i went to the beach yesterday to decompress and something made me think of the song cross the sea, which i remember as being most people's least favorite song on the album, or at least their least favorite single. i kinda liked it then and i love it now. i listened to the whole album after that and it's the only thing that's been able to cut thru the static recently.
alex g is just so singular. i listened to him a lot during a very bad summer in new york and then right after that he had his weird 15 minutes of tiktok fame and i felt far away from him. that's when this album came out. i think something in me knew i needed him back and i'm glad i can have this album. give it a listen with an open heart.
