Rules: List 10 comfort shows and then tag 10 people

I was tagged by the lovely @morganathewitch to list my go to comfort shows, but since I don't watch a lot of shows, I'm gonna include movies mainly! I will include either stills from each movie and/or a song from the ost.

1. Sophia Coppola's Marie Antoinette:

This is easily one of my favorite movies and it's the first thing that comes to my mind if someone asks what my all time favourite movie is. It is visually stunning, the soundtrack is perfection, and Kristen Dunst did an incredible job portraying the young Marie Antoinette!

2. Guy Ritchie's Sherlock Holmes:

This one is a great watch during autumn. Robert Downey Jr, to me, is Sherlock. The soundtrack is also excellent.

3. The Color of Pomegranates (aka Sayat Nova) dir. Sergueï Paradjanov:

How can I not include this visually stunning film?? It tells the life of the medieval Armenian poet Sayat Nova. Paradjanov uses visual means to convey the story which makes it feel like a poem is being painted (if this makes any sense!) I recommend checking this video before or after watching the film.

youtube

4. Amelie (or Le Fabuleux Destin d'Amélie Poulain):

This speaks to my inner hopeless romantic. I don't relate to it as strongly as I used to, but it's still a solid and gorgeous film. The story telling is quirky, but in a good and comfy way.

5. One Piece (the Netflix Live Action):

The second I watched half of episode 1, I fell in love with this show. As someone who loves the anime, I was anxious about this version being silly or even, pardon the term, cringey. However, it's like seeing the source material for the first time. The cast, story, costumes, the soundtrack, etc is perfect and it'll always be a definite comfort watch for me.

6. Faust (1926):

I've been watching silent movies a lot this year, and though I enjoyed plenty, this one stands out to me particularly. Despite being made in the 20s, the production is spot on. The visuals and special effects are incredible and it's also a perfect autumn watch!

7. Only Lovers Left Alive:

I adore this movie. I mean 2 vampires who are passionate about music and literature... sign me up! Obviously, there's more to it, but I recommend watching with no clue about it if you're into vampires!

8. The Hunchback of Notre Dame:

I had to include a Disney movie here and this is easily my all time favourite. After reading the novel by Hugo, I have a newly found appreciation for the Disney version.

9. Fantasia (1940):

As a visual person, this one speaks to my soul. It's, not only, the reason why I started appreciating classical music, but I also get inspired by the animation for my watercolor paintings.

10. Peau d'âne:

Last but not least, I've decided to revisit this gem from my childhood, and it still stands the test of time in my humble opinion. It's whimsical and simply camp; I'm actually surprised that no one on the met gala didn't take inspiration from it!

.

Thank you so much for reading through this list, and I hope that you've discovered new movies, and who knows, some of them might be your new comfort movies 🍂

[Motion Sickness on Goodreads]

Hello everyone! Book club time! I want to start 2022 off by saying I’m going to be sharing more of my reading choices and thoughts with you all, like a little book club-- starting off with a recent ARC I received: Motion Sickness by Dion Anja!

Maybe you remember last term I read Anja’s first poetry collection, My Dawn Is Only Five Hours Away and it was so lovely and captivating. It had so many hidden gems of verse and prose that I frequently turned the page feeling like I had found something special: a secret between me and my copy. Motion Sickness delivers in the same way (no surprise at all, coming from Anja)! “Alone” in particular is a ten line poem that struck me so deep, I immediately had to copy down the last three lines to keep for myself.

The collection is an exploration in personal growth, intergenerational struggles, mortality, and personhood (especially when alone)-- all while being in early adulthood. It's a fantastic read, and leaves just enough space in the proverbial margins for the reader to mull over Anja's work for multiple days.

Motion Sickness comes out February 8, 2022! Be sure to pick up a copy!

Thank you @dionyrtal for crafting such wonderful collections and for sharing them with us.

if you haven’t already, buy a copy of @dionyrtal ebook. the raw emotion within this composition is outstanding. the passion is evident with no poem leaving without placing a sufficient mark on my soul. each one made me think different with a few cutting deep into my soul, resonating into my personal life and ripping open a new persepective on both life and myself. you will in no way regret delving into this twisting soul reaching anythology.

Rules: Get to know your mutuals! List five (5) things about yourself you want your followers to know. They can be as simple as your age or as complex as your deepest fear. When you’re done, tag ten (10) people you want to get to know better!

- I have always owned a few plants, but in the past year my family of plants has grown a lot

- I rarely ever read books when they‘ve just been released unless they are by a few selected writers that I love (okay I basically only like two contemporary writers I admit it)

- I classify as an INTJ-T and as much as personality types are not really taken into consideration by professionals today, I still think it fits me pretty well

- the most important thing in my life has always been being intelligent and always learning new things

- in my life I’ve discovered a pattern where I often get crushes for guys who study to become film directors and are kind of full of themselves (otherwise it’s classical musicians, but never flutists as myself)

Thank you as always @apoherm, I take long to do these, vut I love them! Tagging: @maemeowmeh @darkfemmademia @whyisitthatway @dionyrtal @thehistorygrad @laisse-la-bruler @icedvanilla-latte @i-feelstars @figues @anxious-sciencepoet
