Inspired by the life of John Davidson, and the BBC documentaries which have followed his progress with Tourette Syndrome - the story traces his journey from a misunderstood 15 year-old in the 80's to present day...

...But I didn’t mind — I enjoy being swept up in the scene, the art, the texture. The film is undeniably chic, a little melancholy — and wow, Jacobs has reinvented his own look more times than Madonna over the decades.

My ★★★★ review of THE DRAMA (2026) writer/dir Kristoffer Borgli - The detonation of their relationship arrives less like a plot twist and more like a slow psychological infection... boxd.it/e1AbgH

To me SIRAT felt like being at an amusement park in a long line for a ride you don't actually want to go on - then being flung off - gaining nothing from the experience.
YOU, ME & TUSCANY - sweet, silly and lovely
I SWEAR - the onslaught of the disease at puberty is brutal
I LOVE BOOSTERS - absolutely demented in the best possible way!
THE SHEEP DETECTIVES - Knives Out vibe, only it's the sheep wearing the sweater 😉

READY OR NOT 2: Here I Come - I came late to this blood bath starting w/ 2, I got the gist
PROJECT HAIL MARY - the film’s most intriguing presence isn’t Rocky, but Eva Stratt
MARC BY SOFIA - Perfect escape
THE DRAMA - Nope. It's not a rom/com. I liked it!

The title hints at the film’s central idea: that hope itself can be both sustaining and dangerous, something we cling to even when reality demands harder truths. Johnson proves a compelling lead, grounding the film with a weary charm that suggests both resilience and vulnerability...
letting the performances breathe even when the pacing occasionally drifts.
Where The Addiction of Hope resonates most is in its reflection on aging- particularly for women in Hollywood — and the uneasy question of legacy. Jo’s stalled career mirrors Lynnie’s confrontation with mortality...

capturing the awkwardness and tenderness of siblings who share history but not necessarily intimacy. Their scenes together carry the emotional weight of the film, moving between prickly honesty and moments of unexpected warmth Gottlieb's direction favors intimate conversations over melodrama...
her sister has just received a devastating cancer diagnosis. The film then shifts into a quiet meditation on sisterhood, regret, and the fragile ways people try to reconnect when time suddenly feels short. Johnson and Harley Jane Kozak play beautifully off one another...

Their late mother had very different relationships with each of them, and that emotional divide still lingers. Still, when a termite infestation forces Jo to vacate her home for a few days, she heads to stay w/ Lynnie and her family (by the sea, gorgeous b-roll shots) only to discover...

Adopted as a child, Jo maintains occasional contact with her sister Lynnie (Kozak), who has built a bustling family life with two sons and a granddaughter. But the sisters have never been especially close...

One Battle After Another was #3 on my list of Top 10 Movies for 2025, and watching Teyana and Chase enjoy #AwardSeason was fantastic; so I can't say I'm unhappy with it winning Best Picture, yet it feels like a let down at the same time...
