And EXERGUE - DOCUMENTA 14, but I have not finished it yet. In my defense it is 14 hrs long, but everyone I talk to who’s seen any of it loves it

If you’re attending the #NYFF, I wanted to flag EEPHUS, one of my surprise favorite films of Cannes! Especially good if you love small towns, baseball, melancholy comedies, or lamenting the passage of all things.

Yes! We haven’t been able to host at all this year bc our place is under constant construction (sort of, long story) but it is the only thing I want and I daydream about having both going

we bought a Breville one on sale last year (right before we found out we had to move) and I have maybe used my actual oven twice since then

I am more positive than negative, but it’s kinda 60/40. (Rotten Tomatoes would call that “fresh”!)
