So now they've minimised Emma to counter the criticism that Josh was redundant in his assigned role. Emma can anchor this herself at the judges' table and reducing her contributions to accommodate him is not the answer. Nobody puts Emma in the corner! Johannes is great, no notes 💅

In many ways this was a challenge to whittle down and I'd add in The Mastermind now and a few more but... What a nice problem to have: too many films with something to offer!

So much to enjoy and admire in Courvoisier's debut feature!

Wrote something today that really made me well up... Imagining if someone said it to me how much it would mean, or if I saw it on stage or screen how much I'd appreciate it. While knowing the premise I didn't know what would come out the pen til it was on paper. It feels very meaningful to me.

Bluesky is a now a rare break in some dark clouds. I've always resisted claims that social media is inherently bad, more that it reflects and sometimes amplifies human tendencies. So it can be capable of achieving transformative connection and ground up activism

My film is in a competition with a public vote. A screening at Pinewood is in the prize pot! This one requires a bit more effort than a simple click: rent the collection, pick 4 to vote for and make sure FIZZING is your *first choice* thanks pals! checkout.liftoff.network/student-shor...

Hinge does it on purpose doesn't it... Recommends me cis men constantly, 18 year olds and seriously outdoorsy camping every weekend types when I am a lesbian, in her late 30s who likes being in nature on a low incline 🙃 Questionable that apps get to profit from things as important as personal rships

One ep into Agatha All Along and it's cool and intriguing and brings the best vibes from Wandavision (which I loved). It did make me miss Chilling Adventures of Sabrina tho, and when that name appeared... Coincidence?

It's summer again and got my undercut buzzed back in, nice. Wasp harassment season has also started however. Swings and roundabouts

Mertens is playing a 3rd round match tonight - Raducanu comfortably beat Mertens a month ago. Kenin got beaten by Pegula yesterday - Raducanu beat Pegula a couple of months ago. Emma's a champ 🏆

Eleanor 🌼 @emcletters.bsky.social · 28/08/2024

Gutted for Raducanu 💔 It's a wrench bc she is clearly so v talented. Feel like in recent losses, Sun, Badosa, now Kenin, it was strategy on the day that was the issue. Armchair coach: I don't think she should be left having to readjust so dramatically otd, gameplan going in should be more researched

Had the sheer delight of watching lesbian classic Go Fish (dir. Rose Troche) in the cinema last night. It was like hanging out with lesbian pals. So many of our issues and topics of convo have not changed. It also has a very happy ending with lots of unashamed smooching and canoodling, woohoo 👩‍❤️‍💋‍👩

Reskeet with a favorite book from your childhood 🐎

The cover of Black Beauty by Anna Sewell. Puffin classic. An illustration of a black horse with a white star on midnight blue background.

Just seen Alien Romulus and, thoughts 1) reanimating dead actors is ethically questionable 2) the dyke dying first and having the most phallic rape coded experience does not sit right. even if she's written straight she presents alternative, queer, not girly girly and she got punished

Eleanor 🌼 @emcletters.bsky.social · 20/08/2024

Some spells are trickier - recently 2 opportunities I applied for announced who else got selected and another sent the rejection email today. Film festival rejections weekly. Even actively working on self belief, to dig deep and carry on, the lack of endorsement from elsewhere is...a lot

Just finished the Decameron and for a while they had me worried but yayyy lesbians. Some classically tragic character journeys too. When backed into a corner not only true but new colours can show. Extremes can exist in one person, especially in a survival situ. Also a v horny show. Orgasm centric.

My current "donations" to film festivals so far (submission fees where we haven't been selected): £116.40. and that's not even a scratch on the surface. Whenever someone has much lower (sub £5) or even free entry I breathe a sigh of relief. Tho I can sympathise with fests needing running costs

Eleanor 🌼 @emcletters.bsky.social · 12/08/2024

I just wonder if Raducanu is going to change coach soon, because talent is not an issue, but strategy, tactics...🤔 Whatever's happening I'm looking forward to more awesome tennis 😎

So intrigued by the speed climbing. Speed scurrying. Leaping squirrels. Speedy spideys. And the margins, really shows how small the difference can be between winning and not...

Enjoyed Twisters overall, but 2 things 1) Kate's motivation to rejoin the storm chasers. She's supposed to be traumatised, carrying the guilt of people dying on her watch. But one article on tornado damage and she's off. Are her family there? The family of the people who died? Felt shallow & rushed

Eleanor 🌼 @emcletters.bsky.social · 05/08/2024

Wondering how we can get more people over here because the ruin that is X shouldn't be propped up by engagement and user base given the state of what its owner is doing. Changing from within is a nice idea but the platform is dictated by one man with no recognisable moderation. So, what's the plan?

Eleanor 🌼 @emcletters.bsky.social · 24/05/2024

My short film Fizzing is picture locked 💃 an indie micro budget made on 2k centring a story about a nb lesbian teen and their family on Pride day 🌈 full of heart I can tell you that 💜 #film #lgbt #shortfilm

What would be great...is a way to carry over followers/following from Twitter to here (if they have the same username or email address). X is mostly a bearpit but still too many are holding on there and not here...
