We rip out so much of ourselves to be cured of things faster than we should that we go bankrupt by the age of thirty and have less to offer each time we start with someone new. But to feel nothing so as not to feel anything - what a waste. - Call Me By Your Name (2017)

“For six weeks each summer I’d have to vacate my bedroom and move one room down the corridor into a much smaller room that had once belonged to my grandfather.” Call Me by Your Name (2017) dir. Luca Guadagnino

The Florida Project (2017), Sean Baker

I would imagine “childhood” would be one of the more difficult worlds to replicate on film due to the fact that one’s early years and experiences seem so specific to that individual while they’re living them, which solidify as they grow older and reflect on their pasts, so I’m thrilled (as always) to thank and congratulate Sean Baker for effortlessly and beautifully succeeding with his latest, continuing to focus on undervalued characters and human beings, the “hidden homeless” children of major tourist attractions, by celebrating every little moment they can while still giving them the respect to express their real pain and sheer determination for a maybe better tomorrow, and it concludes with simply one of the more fantastical, uplifting, bittersweet endings of any film I’ve seen in recent memory.

me, hitting a grown man’s arm: meat

me, holding a baby: meat

me, staring long into my own eyes in the mirror and touching my face with growing sense of awe and horror: meat
