Weird, I was just watching Carmen Ejogo in True Detective (s3) so looked her up seeing her in this trailer - had no idea she was British and previously married to Tricky!

ten months pass...

Just got Prime video, so going back to a bunch of stuff I missed. I loved Sorry to Bother You and I loved I'm a Virgo. I understand most of the criticisms leveled at Riley's work - weird tonal changes, threads underdeveloped, world-building isn't cohesive - but that messiness gives it such character. Can't really explain why his style resonates with me so much, while I've offered the same criticisms to other movies or TV shows. Even though the show felt pretty conclusive, he wants to do a season 2 and I hope he gets it

I got smokes at Both Sides Convenience yesterday and thought of this thread … they’ve fixed it up a lot since the movie was made
