You can see action movies at home and you're fine. But to truly appreciate a movie with any nuance or subtlety, you must see it in a darkened, under-attended theater so you can hold your thoughts and keep your phone in your pocket and surrender yourself to the vision

truly no greater joy than picking the movie you want to see at a time you want to see it, eating your own popcorn and settling into a dark cinema seat. It’s the best viewing experience to be off your phone, not thinking about anything but the image in front of you.

I’ve been doing this all year: - Gets you out of the house and off the couch - See things BIG, let the light and sound of cinema wash over you and get lost in it - Discover all kinds of classic films, restorations, curated series you’ve never heard of - Great excuse to meet up with friends and talk about movies afterwards but get comfortable seeing and enjoying things solo! Sharing an onscreen narrative with strangers and then parting ways feels like a fundamental part of city living.

seeing a movie on a huge screen (as most directors intended it to be seen) and just indulging in approximately 2 hours of pure uninterrupted escapism without anyone to worry about (plus supporting your local cinema at the same time). works best with "slow" films where the scenes linger. total bliss.

Except that it's actually, secretly, a very very good movie

Just go on Spotify or whatever and hit play on some Charlie Parker or Ornette Coleman or Miles Davis. Let it spin out recommendations from there. It will all be over your head, and that's just fine. The more you pay attention, the more you'll be rewarded, but also, just hit play and get on with your day
