truly the more i think about it the more i feel like the oppenheimer of it all was worth it, and would have been worth it even if the movie was much worse than it was, just so that my teenage self who saw red eye in theaters could finally watch the rest of the culture finally get on her level about the guy she thought really stole the show in batman begins… when i meditate on this all other relevant cares melt away and i am at peace
Oh how glorious. Another human that doesn’t think the sun shines out of Emma Stone’s ass. I have never gotten the hype, so much so that my love for Mark Ruffalo couldn’t make me dive into Poor Things. I skipped it altogether! Is that terrible? Maybe, but I own my choices. That said, I didn’t make it through Maestro, and I really wanted to. I generally enjoy B Cooper, and I love Carey Mulligan, but alas, I was underwhelmed. The Holdovers was probably one of my faves from this season’s nominees. Admittedly, I haven’t seen them all.
fun fact one of my best friends in the world is leonard bernstein's grandson and he's the one who suggested the bernstein estate submit a letter to the editor of the new yorker in defense of lydia tár
omg hold on is one of your best friends james frankie thomas because if so this is an incredibly small world, he very kindly agreed to participate in the social network issue of boy movies (https://boymovies.substack.com/p/boy-movies-19) after i sent him an insane dm on twitter!!!
“I don’t believe Bradley Cooper is an auteur, I don’t believe that he has a strong point of view on anything, and I don’t believe he’s mentally sound. He’s an incredibly passionate, incredibly confident, and incredibly weird guy.” AND NOW WE’VE SAID IT!!! (Also thank you for speaking the truth about poor things)
i’m trying to get better about interacting with this newsletter because i truly love it so bad; every time i open it to read i end up giggling and sending screenshots of paragraphs to my partner. anyway poor things was mid and i get why people liked it but i thought emma stone was Bad in it😭
omg 🥹 this warms my heart, thank you for reading and laughing!!! poor things aka barbie for people who think they're alt shouldn't have gotten that kind of smoke PERIOD, let alone giving emma stone a second oscar for a truly mediocre performance
