This is the first time I've heard the name "Mary Oliver" and I believe, it's the first time I've read her poetry.
I am impressed with Mary. Her love for the natural world and the profundity of her poetry has changed my perspective for the better.
Fuck Oprah btw. Eat the rich.
It'd probably be 5/5 if I were smarter - I had to have the movie and its thematic elements explained to me by a YouTuber
Shit, I wish I enjoyed this as much as everyone else. Maybe I need to rewatch, but this shit was 3 whole fucking hours lmao
The Secret Agent
The Waterboy
This is peak Rob Schneider. That man was born for this role (the village idiot)
It showcases the contrast of the human experience, showing both immense suffering and happiness, forcing a reflection on the true source of happiness.
It argues that true beauty shouldn't be "plucked and confined" like a flower or bird, instead we should respect the wishes of nature and our fellow humans.

The Vietnam War (2017) • Miniseries
Ken Burns more or less objectively recounts the Vietnam War from the US perspective (at least 90% of it). Many interviews provide a picture of life as a US / South Vietnamese soldier / veteran and a few interviews depict life as a Vietcong soldier / veteran - there are no interviews from any Laotians, Chinese, etc...
The US POW Pilot / war criminal saying the worst part of captivity was being unable to sing patriotic songs had me fucking dying! What a freak! Lmao.
I really admire the resolve of the North Vietnamese.
Look up sunk cost fallacy before watching

I really only watch critically acclaimed movies. That being said, this was just kinda "meh". I wouldnt watch it again, but i wouldnt go back in the past to prevent myself from watching it.
Solid indie film. I like it described as a "meditation on grief".
I can definitely see how it elicits strong feelings from older folks.
The acting was solid all around.
It's a slow movie, but it's grown on me as Ive reflected on it
