(6/7) 🎹 “House” (1977 I finally watched this movie for the first time at a #Halloween party where I was dressed as Gloria Swanson 🎃 I remember thinking, “My people are weird…I love them.” ♥️

Martin Scorsese's New York Fever Dream Robbie Collin on After Hours, the 80s cult classic that saved Martin Scorsese's career

(5/7) Article Credit: Drake’s Robbie Collin, Jan. 5th 2024 ⏱️ At any rate, I’m glad I saw the movie, it’s fun! us.drakes.com/blogs/news/a...

(4/7) A Google rabbit hole taught me that Martin Scorsese’s “After Hours” (1985) belongs to a #subgenre of movies called “yuppie nightmare cycle” or “Horny Nerd in a Suit Has the Worst Night of his Life” 🌃

A poster for the movie "Cube"(1997)

(3/7) The Canadian, #Kafkaesque “Cube” (2007) was inspiration for a slew of #escaperoom movies, most notably, the “Saw” franchise 🪚 With a meager budget of $350,000 CAD, the film proved you don’t need to have a large budget if you have an original idea.

(2/7) I love that my high school experience included my classmates endlessly parroting the lines from "Napoleon Dynamite” (2004) for my entire #senior year 🦙 Iconic, quirky, and surprisingly touching, the movie holds up over 20 years later 🎒

(1/7) There’s something charming about a movie made on a budget 🎞️This #moviemonday I’m celebrating the bravery in #low-budget films 🎬 These movies prove that you don’t need a Hollywood budget to make an impression on audiences!

(5/6) Fans of “Schitt’s Creek”, the band QUEEN, and the musical “Chicago” should checkout “Cabaret” (1973) 🎩 Daniel Levy’s series features the show, Freddie Mercury loved the movie and soundtrack, and “Carabet” is Chicago’s older sister🎹

A poster for the movie "A Fish Called Wanda" (1988)

(4/6) Usually the phrase “of its time” is patronizing but in this case, “A Fish Called Wanda” (1988) is everything fun about the late 80’s 🐠 P.S. Technically, this story is a love pentagon 💜

A poster for the movie "Bee Movie" (2007)

“Bee Movie” (2007) is a must-see for anyone who can’t resist a good pun. "Seinfeld" fans might enjoy it too 🐝 but no promises. It’s a strange one, and yes, there’s a cross-species love triangle 😄

The poster for the movie "Challengers" (2024)

(2/6) I don’t think “Challengers” (2024) got its dues last Oscar season 🎾 It’s dark, different, and unforgettable. I’ll always think of this movie from now on when I hear #lovetriangle and I love that for me! 🍿

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.

The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.

People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.

And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.
