DAY 27: Movie Night!

I love movies. There is something about watching a story unfold before your eyes and escaping whatever worries you might have in your own life that is really therapeutic. I have always loved going to the movies ever since I was a kid and it is something that I really miss doing. Sharing the thrill and excitement with a room full of complete strangers is oddly special. Though I will say, while going to the movies has been impossible I really love how readily available new movies have been over the last year and will continue to be through streaming platforms. I love following the awards season and watching the nominated films to make my own opinions. I was impressed with myself (lame I know) that I had already seen 6/8 nominated best picture films before the Academy Awards announcement. Two of my favorites would definitely be Judas and the Black Messiah and Nomadland. I highly recommend them if you have HBOMax or Hulu. Tonight I will be watching Promising Young Woman so I will be up to 7/8.

  1. Enjoy your movie night! You just reminded me of one of my own goals- to try to watch a movie that is something other than The Little Mermaid, or something like that!

  2. I also love the streaming options COVID has opened up for us! Our local theaters have been offering the option to rent a theater for up to 20 people, and it’s amazing. We went to see Raya and the Last Dragon this week in a private theater—it was so good to be back! Enjoy your movie marathon and hope you are able to return to the theater again soon, too!

  3. It’s hard to believe it’s been a year since we’ve had the movie experience. I’m looking forward to getting back out there.
