Inside, the mirror keeps whispering my name
but the syllables don’t match the ones I’ve been given.
I press my palm to the glass,
as if I could melt into that other body
that waits for me, patient as dusk. #poetry

'Harvest' Review - A Folk Fable of Love, Loss, and the Slow Violence of Change Harvest opens like a dream you’re not sure you want to wake from β€” quiet, slow, and heavy with the scent of earth.

β€œHarvest is not simply a period drama, nor is it wholly folk horror. It is a meditation on what it means to belong to a place, and how fragile that belonging becomes when power shifts hands.”

I really enjoyed this beautifully shot on 16mm film. My review for Harvest: #FilmSky 🎬

if there’s a movie i’ll champion all year long for an academy nod, especially for screenplay, it’s sorry, baby. i’ll push for it tirelessly because it’s not only one of the best films of the year but also features one of the most incredible screenplays i’ve ever seen

The child actor Cary Christopher is fantastic in Weapons, but what really surprised me was realizing that Days of Our Lives is still a thing, thanks to his IMDb page lmao

It baffles me that people think Weapons is about "nothing." the discourse around this movie is incredibly stupid lol

This is a really sweet film, but the opening made me incredibly sad. I’ll talk about it in my review, but I really liked this. Australian cinema is on a whole other level

Hadn't heard of this movie until I saw a trailer for it on tv recently. Sounds like like a lot of fun. Will check it out!

It blows my mind that some places are even worse than the US right now, especially for someone like me who's newly coming out. It’s genuinely terrifying. Any woman who doesn’t fit their narrow idea of β€œfemme” immediately becomes a target. this is sickening
