Verdict on Up, Down, Fragile: it's as if it absorbed, chewed up, and oozed out Jacque Demy and Gene Kelly movies in a good way. Immaculate vibes. Great outfits. I need to get myself some mary janes.

Verdict on Joy House: good eye candy. Had to watch with the French dub so Alain Delon's character does not sound as twerpy as he does in the English version, minimizing his hotness. Fonda outshines him here.

A Great Wall is also an overlooked gem in Asian American cinema. Was so surprised by how resonant its observations on liminal identities were. Deserves to be in conversation with other pioneer AAPI 80s films like Chan is Missing. My favorite discovery (now streaming on Criterion Channel).

Also can't wear high-waist and tuck anything without cutting off half the design for most of these 😭

Not me tying my hair up and doing a little twirl so that the cashier ringing me up who commented on my Waystar Royco shirt can appreciate the family printed on the back design

Using my influence as the first ever poster of 'Changsub' on here to try to make this happen... even tho I got no following lol
