We Have Always Lived in the Castle

2018

★★★★ Watched

“The Blackwoods have always lived in this house. We have never done anything to hurt anyone. We put things back where they belong. And we will never leave here. No matter what they say… or what they do to us. Never.”

Taissa Farmiga was so brilliantly unsettling- she totally nailed Merricat.

Nothing will ever live up to Hill House (as loose of an interpretation as it is), but a solid adaptation of a Shirley Jackson work!

Beauty and the Beast

1991

★★★★★ Liked Watched

“Bittersweet and strange, finding you can change, learning you were wrong…”

Lilo & Stitch

2002

★★★★★ Liked Watched

“This is Scrump! I made her, but her head is too big. So, I pretend a bug laid eggs in her ear, and she’s upset because she only has a few more days to…”

Rewatch in protest of the absolute shit show that is the live action remake. It remains my favorite Disney movie, and the people yearn for the experimental era.

Sleepaway Camp

1983

★★★ Rewatched

“Eat shit and live!”

Rewatch- not much to say. While I’m sure it wasn’t the intended message, lots of interesting commentary here on gender roles and identity.
