Critical MeMe

Time spent watching films, even crappy ones, is time well-spent.

Post dates are when I watched, parenthetical dates are the year of US release (aka Oscar eligibility).

Takeaways:

Some parents are toxic and it should be encouraged/applauded when a child cuts such a parent out of their life. I’m guessing that most of Amy’s issues could’ve been avoided if she’d had a decent father figure. But, since she didn’t, she should’ve been encouraged to get a decent therapist so she could stop looking to other men (managers, bodyguards, her husband) to fill that role in her life.
Paparazzi should be outlawed. Professional photographers should have to stay 100 feet away from their subjects at all times.
Tony Bennett is a truly decent man.
