Tenth of December by George Saunders

There’s a careful balance between dystopian despair for our advertising-obsessed society (a hobbyhorse of Saunders’ to be sure) and cautious moments of unexpected triumph, or if not triumph, at least partial redemption, that creates a lovely tapestry of sad but fulfilling stories concerning real, and real weird, characters in this compilation of short stories.

Both the sci-fi elements and the scientist characters are really fun and involving in this carl sagan book adaptation - but on the other hand the love interest is really annoying and the movie should’ve been 30 minutes shorter.

the gentlemen (2019)

While this Guy Ritchie movie doesn’t live up to its forebears (in my humble opinion) in terms of snappy dialogue and humor, it was certainly funny at times, and the twists were nice and exciting, and colin farrell’s character was a classic.
