watched happiness a couple months ago for the first time at the movie theatre i volunteer at and got such a kick out of the way this movie had us all laughing then wincing then groaning in a span of seconds. it was so tense and there was this general vibe of "are we allowed to laugh???" and solondz says, yes yes laugh, so you can also feel the pain, then laugh about that too
watched wiener-dog yesterday and again really enjoyed how mean the whole thing can be and then bam outta nowhere he hits you with these moments of real sweetness. stacked cast also
those are the only two i've seen but very excited to keep discovering his movies

finally watched this after seeing a bunch of reels of Jesse talking about the movie on my feed and wow! definitely has second-time writer/director (right?) bits to it but the theme of pain is pulled in so many interesting directions here that the whole thing came out really touching and compelling. and i mean the dinner scene??

when i need to write secrets, things i'm ashamed about, sexy sentences, or anything i don't want any eyes on (not even mine) i write as small as i possibly can. this past weekend i had a lot of floating anxieties that i committed to paper this way and free writing in this format helped offload thoughts that were making me loopy.
it looks kind of psychotic by the time i'm done a page but also kind of beautiful?
(edited to fuck to preserve secrecy but still give you an idea of what it looks like. this is on a folded-up A4 sheet of paper zine)
