I definitely didn’t get in as many movies this weekend as I would have liked to, but I can promise this was a unique trio.

Book Review: With Teeth by Kristen Arnett
I don’t quite remember adding With Teeth by Kristen Arnett to my must-read list, but a couple of weeks ago when I was looking through it and what was available at my local library, it popped up. I bit (pun intended) and gave it a go.

The SAG Awards kept me busy most of Sunday night, but I still managed to get some new movies in this weekend.
Read morePhysical Season 1 Review
Even though Apple +’s Physical got picked up for a second season, I think this first season is where I stop. I’m deeply disappointed that this black comedy-drama didn’t resonate with me more, mainly because Rose Byrne killed it here.
Read moreBook Review: Where the Crawdads Sing by Delia Owens
Much like other immensely popular things, I choose not to believe the hype about Delia Owens debut fiction effort, Where the Crawdads Sing. This usually means I’ll never check these things out (here’s looking at you Harry Potter), or I will check them out many moons later. I realize the 2018 wasn’t all that long ago, but really got me interested in reading this bestseller was the film adaptation involvement of excellent actor, Harris Dickinson. With that being said, I was still really hesitant to read this book about a swamp hick.

I was pleased to get my hands on Thomas Savage’s novel, The Power of the Dog, so soon after watching the Jane Campion and Netflix adaptation of it. Also pleasing was how closely the adaptation followed the events of the novel!
Read moreHulu Movie Review
Yes, voting for the Independent Spirit Awards starts this weekend, and no, I still haven’t watched Blue Bayou or Drive My Car. I just haven’t managed to be in the right mindset for a serious drama and a three hour saga (regardless of how well it’s been reviewed). Lately, I’ve been trying to go for quantity, not necessarily quality, but I do plan to squeeze the two in before this weekend rolls around. Instead, I watched a bunch of stuff on Hulu!
Read moreWeekend Movie Review
Now that Sundance is done and over with, I’ve gotten back to my normal flow of films in a given weekend. I will say, I did have trouble landing on stuff I wanted to watch; felt a little aimless. There are still a couple nominees I need to get in before voting starts on the Independent Spirit Awards, but I gave myself a weekend off from all things new and awards related.
