    The Worst Person in the World

    Might be my new favorite. Tells the story of a womans life over the course of several years. I adore this format where you can see realistic problems unfold, how relationships were doomed from the start and how others can be repaired with time. I'm sure there are people who would say it's boring and nothing major happens. But, isn't that life? We all create our own drama.

    I don't think she is the worst person in the world. But I understand what she might think that of herself.

    Club Zero

    A slow burn horror about toxic flawed faith in extreme diet culture. Did you know that you don't ACTUALLY need to eat? Companies just TELL you that to sell you more food. It takes legitimate criticism of consumerism well past what I thought was extreme. Fantastic yet tragically plausible.

    August: Osage County

    Lots of big names doing A+ performances, a brutal story of a strained dysfunctional family finally breaking when their father disappears. When your parents do nothing but sow discord and cruelty they'll only reap chaos and heartbreak. The abject cruelty is hard to stomach at points, but it fosters the payoff as the family learns to stand up for themselves.
