[Listed in reverse chronological order of when I watched them. I don’t know how to do a list that counts in the opposite direction. Date after title is the year film was released.]

1. White Noise (2022)
   “I could not wait for the noise to end.“
2. Emily the Criminal (2022)
   (Months after watching this, I saw Plaza interviewed and she said that no guns were used in this film. So interesting. I did not realize it or even think about that. See if you notice.)

8. Grown-Ups (1980)
   “I still can’t believe that was Brenda Blethyn.”

    “I guess the main reason to watch this is for Jon Bernthal. I had no idea who he was, so there.“

    “Huppert, with pigtails, scary as shit.”

    “If Isabel Huppert was in it, well then it would have been a film to recommend.”
