Mysterious skin (2004) directed by gregg araki

devastating watch but still a film I really loved. I think the way this film captures trauma and pain is incredible, and for me, it does that best towards the end – through conversation and the final monologue. I didn’t expect to cry as much as I did. and I didn’t expect to feel as heavy as I currently do after watching it.

MYSTERIOUS SKIN

i stared at a wall for 2 hours afterwards. genuinely such a beautiful, heart-wrenching insight on trauma and how it can affect people years and years later. it made me feel empty, yet so seen and understood. it does a good job at being respectful while still being brutally honest. it’s a hard watch at times, but would definitely recommend.

Gut Wrenching MOvies

The Florida Project - a bittersweet movie depending on which ending you subscribe to Aftersun - a slow and subtle build to a heart breaking climax The Iron Claw - a devastating movie based on an even more devastating true story Sing Sing - overall a hopeful movie but there's a few very hard hitting human moments I Saw The TV Glow - already brutal, and then you figure out what it's really saying The Lobster - just bleak man Beautiful Something Left Behind - a documentary about children dealing with grief

TWO OF THE GREATEST THINGS OF ALL TIME

Jazz and southern gothic. There's a reason the US has cultural dominance.

Game Of Pricks: 1:03-1:10

The first two lines of the chorus: 'You can never be strong, You can only be free'
Sums up everything great about Robert Pollard's songwriting. Drama, hope and disappointment.

Townes Van Zandt - Colorado Girl

I'm amazed no one else has mentioned the great Townes Van Zandt. This is my favourite of his, a beautiful voice and songwriter gone far too soon.
