Honey Don't (2025)

I'm so predisposed to love this flick, considering the actors (Plaza), the director (Coen), the style (funny and violent), the subject (detective noir) - like the movie was made for me! - but the end spins totally out of control, has no style or grace, and looking back overall this movie lacks the exposition and character development that would've brought off any kind of ending at all.

Seeing Like a State by James C. Scott

This historical treatise has a lot of notoriety but I found it unnecessarily dense, and ultimately flawed, in that its focus on states and state power ignores a related discussion of capitalist power, such that altho there is a useful perspective to glean here about how a drive for social legibility can transform a society, I wouldn't recommend the book overall.

I Saw The TV Glow (2024)

Creepy slow and artsy, well-acted altho some of the monologues and artistic choices tried a little too hard, overall just different  which I really appreciated, deep and heartfelt and not afraid of some discomfort.
