movies on criterion

in no particular order, here are some i really enjoy :) most of them are pretty popular, though so i don’t know if they’ll be new to you ! - anything by jacques demy (i haven‘t seen all of his films, but i love everything i have seen <3 they’ll definitely cheer you up. something a little less popular by him is donkey skin, which is so fun!!) - also anything by wong kar wai ! (fallen angels is a personal favorite. i’d also recommended happy together if you want something that’ll make you cry haha) - the double life of veronique (a recent watch for me, super dreamy yet psychological) - la pointe-curte (directed by agnes varda. if you enjoy marriage story, you’ll like this too ! it’s slow and dialogue heavy, but definitely moving) hope you find something new from here and feel better soon !!

NOT MASKING YOUR BAD BEHAVIOR WITH THERAPY TERMINOLOGY

My friend today asked me an amazing question. He said, “Do you think the avoidance thing is specific to our generation or LA specific? Like is someone in Arkansas thinking about anxiety?” Obviously yes someone in Arkansas is thinking of anxiety haha but it made me really think. Our generation is HORRIBLE (me included) at facing shit and taking accountability. It’s all masked underneath this ”therapy talk” shit. Hear me out. Let’s say you have a friend and you’re feeling conflict/tension with them. After a few weeks of them being mean, you confront them about it. They’re passive and not addressing their actions. We would INSTANTLY write them off as “AVOIDANT” versus “A friend who’s hurting me by being shitty even if they don’t intend to.” And yes, that friend is being “avoidant”. But, that’s a simple write off for behavior. Behavior has been so quickly written off to fit into this Therapy Talk. Here’s another example: A girl who really likes someone is attaching to them quickly because she’s excited to get to know them and is having so much fun, she’s moving faster than usually and trying to rush commitment. Society would consider her “Anxiously attached” versus “This girl is really into this person and it’s shifting her choices and actions.“ I think what i’m getting at is, it seems dismissive and avoidant to just simplify these big feelings and actions into these terms when in reality, yes the terms are true. But, we should probably be making space to really talk and express in full detail a persons actions including our own, and get to the bottom of it. The categories can be apart of the larger narrative, but they arent the full reasoning. I hope this made sense lol
