Very striking use of music throughout that movie, between the Springsteen and Neil Young songs and the Maria Callas section
Sort of makes me wish that Demme had leaned into that aspect a bit more!

I *loved* being able to see WILDWOOD, NJ 📽️ at the Berlinale. Its sociological interest in the young women of a working-class beach town reminds of what we've lost and how technology has made the discussions here unimaginable now intheirownleague.com/2026/03/17/b...

The greenhouse scene is much more effective in the novel. Chandler’s descriptions really don’t translate adequately onto the screen

‘It felt as though Harriet Tubman's hands were pushing me down on one shoulder and Sojourner Truth's hands were pushing me down on the other shoulder. I felt inspired by these women because my teacher taught us about them in so much detail.’

there is no reason for ICE to exist. immigrants aren’t doing anything wrong by trying to live and work and provide for their loved ones. I don’t care how people got here. if they want to be here that’s good. leave them alone.
