Critical MeMe

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

The Worst Person in the World (2021)

Julia is beautiful, smart, vibrant, and aimless. During the four years we spend with her, she navigates several changes in her life (majors, men, jobs) and -- every minute -- grows up a little bit more. There's not one defining thing here; the movies not about "the path that true love took" or "young woman finds her life's purpose." It's just about life and it is simply wonderful.

I suspect that most lives are like Julia's. There's no absolute destination, there are simply experiences and moments and happiness and sorrow. It felt so honest and I absolutely loved it.
