Week 11 Discussion

 Me and You and Everyone We Know (2005) | The Criterion Collection

This week we got to present our movie, and I was really proud of it. We had a great time making it, and I really think that showed in the final result of what we made. By far my favorite line was the Grindr joke, and I think Joey delivered it perfectly and I felt like we got a good laugh from everyone about that. In terms of acting and my experience with it, I think I enjoyed it. I didn't really any lines but I it was fun to be on screen and being able to watch my self when we presented. I also didn't expect the amount of passion I would feel for our film. At the end of the day this was just a very amateur project, but I did feel pretty attached to it since we as a group took our time on it. It made feel like I had more respect for filmmakers after this because I'm sure they feel 10x more strongly than I did about their work, and it makes me wonder how they feel when reviews are bad and many people outwardly say their work sucks. All in all though, I am proud of our project and glad we got to show everyone in class what we did.

Later in the week we watch Me You and Everyone We Know. I enjoyed the film, and one thing I thought was extremely underrated was the music in the film. I'm someone that really cares about music in a film and usually if I like the movie I end up really liking the soundtrack. I thought the instrumentals in some of the scenes were some real bangers honestly and I thought they suited the film and the characters really well.

Before we were shown the movie Dr. Kyburz mentioned that Miranda July's films are super awkward, and I really felt it in this movie but I kind of liked it. I think it really made the film funny and by far my favorite character was the little boy Robbie. I thought he was the best actor in the movie and all his scenes I really enjoyed, especially the one where he is typing on the messenger with the art curator. I thought they way he did it was adorable and really encapsulated the innocence a child has.

We watched a lot of great movies this summer, but I think my favorite one was Me You and Everyone We Know solely for the young child actor B...
