Grace and Frankie: The Scavengender Hunt (2018)
Prime Example
I love this show, I really do. The writing is usually top-notch and the Fantastic Four (Fonda, Tomlin, Waterson, Sheen) are extremely entertaining. But this episode is a prime example of what is wrong with the series, mostly the off-spring. Briana is a hideous human being and I find some of the scenes unwatchable. Mallory has no identity other than baby maker and Bud has no identity at all. It's merely "the black one". This lives Coyote the co-dependent recovering addict as a somewhat likable character. I was appalled at the scene in which Mallory hurled eggs at her ex's Porsche. She ended the marriage but she wasn't happy. So he moves on and she vandalizes his car. This is what society calls empowering women?
Eat with Me (2014)
Great movie and some wonderful performances
I skipped over this movie quite a few times on Netflix before finally deciding to view it. I'm glad that I did. Eat with Me is a wonderfully touching movie about personal growth and communication in relationships. Many of the performances are stellar with Nicole Sullivan's turn as the kooky neighbor a stand out. But Sharon Omi's performance as a wife and mother not really sure how to fulfill either role was just mesmerizing in my opinion. Her expressions of bewilderment, of longing, of concern, and ultimately resolution are powerful. Omi is not only my new favorite actress but my new favorite human being. Eat with Me will make your hungry ... for something more out of life.
