Not my favorite this week, but well worth watching.

What a dream. To finally be back in a movie theater. For this theatrical piece, which I adored on stage, to be our welcome back to the cinema! Just amazing. I'm overwhelmed. Super emotional day.

The movie is excellent, too.

The movie is legit great. It's been decades since there's been an American Musical Film that is truly relevant and vital. John Chu is a fucking great director.

It's interesting because it occurred to me how similar he is to QT, actually. In terms of scope, cinema (creating cinematic art), framing and fantasy. However, Chu's brand of fantasy is much more my speed. It's (Chu's brand) theatrical and doesn't feel explosive or macho like it does with QT.

Anyway, I need more time to think this all through. Maybe I'm way off. It was just something that hit me last night. Either way, In The Heights is great. It's the best musical film made in like 50 years.

Such a great great movie. Exquisite framing, amazing score, great sound design, marvelous photography and the best of all, Kirsten fucking Stewart again, being the star that she is.

She is just so fucking intense and out there, she is reaching Nic Cage levels of greatness for me.

I was really impressed by her performance. She is a great actress. Also thought the movie looked great, really smart choices by the director.

yeah, she was great there. She is also awesome in the recent Love Lies Bleeding movie.

I should do a rewatch of Spencer soon.
