Me at the end of GHOSTS, when Mrs. Alving (Judi Dench) is cradling her now-vegetative son Oswald (Kenneth Branagh) who finally succumbs to the syphilis he was cursed with since childhood by his philandering late father. Mrs Alving has to decide to euthanise him or not like he asked before succumbing

I've been watching a lot of 1970s/80s BBC play for the month productions of things like Chekhov and Ibsen and this always how I review them:

Forever a loyalist to the totalitarian regime of Generalissima Kelly Rowland, who seized control of the Rhythm Nation after a violent and bloody coup.

For a while now, I've been prioritising my own happiness and just focusing on my paying work and with a few other personal reasons, I haven't felt much need to post work online. But anyway. Sometimes the process can be joyful.

Wonderful haul at Abney Books today as part of their “Fill a bag for £20” day. The audible scream I let out when I saw a copy of Tennessee Williams’s Baby Doll in the window.

Same energy as that great scene in New X-Men when Jean goes up a hill while feeling some kind of messy way & sort of tries it on with Logan (who, despite saying he wants it, says it’s a bad idea & it would destroy both of them), in one of the most overt Logan/Jean escalations to date at that point.

This kind of happened to my BF when he watched From Here to Eternity one afternoon with no framing so all afternoon I got messages like “It’s good and all but I don’t think I get it, it’s just a bunch of lonely people on a Hawaiian naval base”, and finally I got “Oh…. The Japanese just attacked”.
