Guida astrologica per cuori infranti (2021)
I love it because she is so lovable!
Alice is the girl who should have found love long ago yet but she wants what she wants: a career, to be respected and appreciated for who she is. Unfortunately, she is misused by her boss, abused by lovers and berated by her mom. She confuses her desire to be liked by her coworkers by being miss dependable instead of being seen as an equal. I liked that she never gives up on her friends, but rather an inner strength starts to emerge and she steps into her own. Unfortunately, she hides her weakness to drink too much as an escape and that is sad. No one likes to see a woman drunk, no matter how old she is.
Odio Il Natale (2022)
I loved it!
I love her because she was what we need to see -- she was open to love and yet, she loved people more. She was not someone's doormat but she know what she needed... And I am so glad they found baby Jesus in the end--True love, love personified makes Christmas great! For Italian family, the overbearing mom was a bit too much, but all moms are overbearing. The dad as a great counterbalance but the roommate's character as being a tinder babe was too much. If your love life is determined with an app and a overcharged libido, then what about the constant feeling of emptiness afterwards. I hope that they can continue the story because the cast is worth it!
Firefly Lane (2021)
A great representation of true female bonding through adversity and love...
Some would say this is Beaches on Steroids, however, as a late boomer, I remember having friend's parents like Cloud and wondering how the kids get out of here? But the cast truly made it happen. The casting of Tully and Kat, both as teenagers and as adults, made time transitions seamless and riveting. Both sexes bond thorough adversity but women bond more through forgiveness and allowing the other to act out but return home. All four of these women show why we need each other even more today then ever. To love is a deliberate act of the will and these characters make me want to try to love harder.
