MISS LONELY (1985)

Watched this movie directed by Nobuhiko Obayashi and honestly this is my favorite film from him so far. Great coming-of-age film with good emotion and comedic moments.

His motorbike, her island

Nobuhiko Obayashi is probably one of my favorite filmmakers of all time and I usually turn to his work often for comfort.
This one in particular fills me such a beautiful ache of nostalgia and longing. The use of color to illustrate the dreamy nature of love and lives lived is gorgeous. I genuinely think this is a film everyone needs to see

IKIRU (1952)

I always get teary-eyed when I watch this film. Recommend going into it blind. It is made by the legendary Akira Kurosawa. Amazing melodrama.

This Must Be the Place (Naive Melody)

I am a big Talking Heads fan and that song is one of my favorite songs ever. I love the hypnotic feel and lovely lyrics. It makes me feel happy and warm. So that is my getting ready for the day song.

No other land (2024)

Such an important documentary film, and I’m glad that my local Lyric Theater showed this film. It was devastating but I hope more people watch this film. Thank you to the people who worked on this film. I’m so glad this film won an Oscar! The work done in this film is great and I would love to applaud every single one of these people that made this movie.

PEANUT BUTTER BANANA SANDWICH

I have been eating this sandwich for a long time and it tastes so good to me. I heard some people have this grilled but I don’t grill them. Make sure you grab some water while you eat because it can be hard to chew down.
