Zoey's Extraodinary Playlist?
Can I be totally transparent? Yes? Okay, I haven't really been that interested in anything I have absorbed on television or the internet in years. To be quite frank, art however, subjective it always turns out to be has really been lacking for me, personally, as a viewer of the craft. Ever since the pandemic, it feels like, nothing seems to be interesting or entertaining. Everything seems almost dull or is trying a bit too hard to be something it's clearly missing the mark in.

Six 100-Word Movie Reviews
Sorry, Baby (2025), Director/Star: Eva Victor, Actors: Naomi Acki, Louis Cancelmi Get ready for a total downer film. I’ll start with the pros. Sorry, Baby is a well-directed drama that distinguishes skillful direction around a sensitive topic. Director, writer, and star Eva Vincent based the film on a personal experience of navigating sexual assault trauma. This film is meant to help others who are in her place. The cons: it’s a downer subject matter, the direction is strange in parts, and the acting is cringeworthy. What has happened to Fred Hechinger’s (Gavin) career? His character and acting are a total cringe-fest. Others may have different opinions from mine. Check it out.

My Top 10 Favorite Feel-Good Movies
#1 - Marcel the Shell With Shoes On (9/10) I watched this with a group of friends the first time, with my fiance the second time and my sister the third time. Every time I watch, I enjoy it even more. While it is a tear-jerker at times, Marcel the Shell With Shoes On is also a touching, feel-good film that reminds us to appreciate the little things and always remember what is truly important in life. A beautiful film I highly recommend.
