Andrew Haigh makes movies just for me.
This was such an emotional and harrowing experience I can't even. Oh God! I kept crying and crying.
This doesn't feel like a 2023 movie. It just seemed so mature, so classic, so vintage, so....... old.
I want to live inside this movie. I don't know what that says about me as a person but no matter how sad or melancholic it is, I want to live in this world. It's just too…

Derek Cian is a well known name among moviewatchers. Unlike everyone else, I'd only seen Blue Valentine before this and that was an achingly beautiful film. I couldn't stop my tears through most of it.
The Light Between Oceans, from it's poster and the fact that it was the reason the lead actors married in real life, seemed like a happy romantic movie. But that it definitely was not. I couldn't be more wrong 😭.

In Bed with Victoria

2016

★★★★★ Liked Watched

This is such a brilliantly written movie. Justine Triet is an amazing writer and so deserving of her Academy Award.

Victoria doesn't turn off the tap after washing her face when she is so anxious.
Victoria needs to talk more with her sexual partner than actually having sex.
Just so, so good.

Sometimes, those who let you go love you more than those who keep you.
Beautiful tale of motherhood, love and loss in times of war.

When you're at your lowest, art comes to the rescue. Music, films, books etc. all provide solace when needed. But art alone can't pull us back from the shadows of grief. It takes a companion. Someone you can talk to. Someone who listens. Someone who cares.
One of the blessings of being human is that we can talk. I wish people appreciated it more.
