Don't Die: The Man Who Wants to Live Forever

2025

★★ Watched

Absolutely wild story. Doc itself didn't feel that balanced though, in of Bryan or longevity science itself - the only real points against were a lawsuit from an ex girlfriend (which was very vague and short) and chat around what Bryan's doing being dangerous, and he'd have more impact if he took his money and used it to fund trials. Did reveal some of the why behind what he's doing which was interesting - the fact that he grew up in the Mormon church made a lot of things click.

Secretary

2002

★★★★★ Rewatched

SO good but rewatching, this film felt like it was made in the 90s and it absolutely was not?! Set work is wild, the dynamic is hot and the ending lives up to the rest of the film.

2024

★★★ Liked Watched

Enjoyed this, two great performances and characters from the leads. The idea of being close to someone who people instantly love, but who has a dark side that you feel only you have to see, felt relatable. And seeing David attempt to navigate that in a group setting, while feeling the charm of Benji as someone watching the dynamic play out was cool.

But the main thing I've been thinking about since watching is that I wish they'd done something…
