Close, 2022: 10/10. A steady, gentle flow of tears throughout this entire movie. Most of the time because my heart was breaking, and some of the time because it was so beautiful. If you struggle with chronic guilt and shame, be careful with this one.
Problemista, 2024: 100000/10 Had a deep, cathartic sob starting about 4/5ths of the way through the movie and lasted through the credits. Cried so hard Jose had to carry me out the theater. Cried because it reminded me what it means to be human, how it feels to have a dream, and how difficult it can be to exist in the world.
Am I Okay?, 2024: 5/10. I really really wanted to like this one. Going into it knowing it was a coming out/coming of age I expected to cry, but I only felt a little teary during a montage of Dakota Johnson’s character “coming into herself,” and that might have only been because she’s so skinny and bangs look so good on her.
The Holdovers, 2023: 8/10. Loved. Cried every time Da’Vine Joy Randolph did anything. What a performance. To be fair, I watched the Oscars and her acceptance speech before seeing this one and wept like she was my own daughter (I was so proud of her and all her hard work,) so that may have influenced my experience of the movie. Overall, a thoughtful exploration of people in pain. Definitely some misty moments.
