Uncanny, awkward, goofy movie. I feel like if I tell you any more you wonāt appreciate it for its true beauty. explores themes of abandonment, familial bonds, financial struggle, and self awareness in a really simple, analogical way.
Everything Miranda July touched is gold. This movie notwithstanding! Loved how weird and uncanny this wasāand the exploration of queer love and motherhood was beautiful.
Pt 1 of my Richard Jenkins Double Feature A surreal film about a family of scammers whose lives get turned upside down when they welcome someone new into their lives. I can see this movie being too odd for many people but I found it to be a really beautiful story about affection and neglect.
one of my favorite movies. at 16 years old, watching it feels nostalgic in itself, but the picture it paints of the era in which it takes place is also nostalgic. itās a more real, defined, engulfing world than any iāve ever experienced through film, and even though i know what happens, i feel the things the characters feel as they feel them. when vr allows us to live in a movie, theme park ride style, āAdventureland Summerā will be my first stop. this thing is dripping with nostalgic heartache to the tunes of the replacements and lou reed, every performance is great / super funny / heartbreaking in itās own way. as iām typing this, i think i believe this is the best film ever made? that canāt be true, probably, but idk watch it youāll love it and feel a lot.

Builds character, confidence, and discipline. The only person in charge of your mess is you! When you get home you can turn the performance off! Naked time anytime!
