Well, here we are in Spain. I feel like I am just getting started, and I wish I had more new episodes yet to come, but we have come to the final episode of what's turning out to be one of the most wonderful things I've ever done.

KRACKLE'S LAST MOVIE by Chelsea Sutton - Review @crsutton.bsky.social @splitlippress.com
KRACKLE’S LAST MOVIE by Chelsea Sutton – Review
The nitty-gritty: Weird, grotesque, absurd and emotional, Krackle’s Last Movie is a quirky mystery with plenty of heart. “When I’m conducting these interviews, I am never in one place. I shift from their childhood until their death, dropping into the days before their change, then into the moment they knew, for sure, that their body, their mind, and their life would never be the same.”
