Good day.

Is it just me or does everyone becomes a grandma once autumn hits? Tell me why I clock out at 7PM on the dot everyday.

But I hope you’re having a beautiful week, and here’s the agenda for today:

• Curated resources: Barry Jenkin’s commentary, Past Lives visual playbook, and your favourite newsletter’s favourite newsletter

• The forever-trending film style

• Me exposing my September journal entries

Read my “about” & REEL TALK Archives

Spent a little bit of time organizing all of our REEL TALK conversations, so check out it out if you missed any of them.

Spent way too much time writing my “about” page because I’m so business-driven. So go read it, please - otherwise I’ll be too sad about clocking in 3 hours just for that.

Evolve with Art: Curated Resources

Essential Watches:

• Director Barry Jenkins gives a shot-by-shot commentary on Moonlight (2016), one of the most important bodies of art in queer cinema. He discusses in-depth Charon’s theme, Juan and Little’s relationship, layers of swimming lesson, Jesus Mitchell and John Lyons (yeah, for 2 hours straight).
