Maniac (2018)
9/10
Wonderful TV
11 October 2018
Does the end justify the means? Do I have to pull my normal psyche through hell and back to see such a wonderful end to all the madness? I'll do it for Sally. I'll do it because One flew over the Cuckoo's nest. I'll do it to escape reality to find reality. It is a Wonderfull Life. (How long do I have to wait until it's safe to watch it again?)

I Smile Back (2015)
10/10
Significant

Movies can teach us about life- When I was a teenager I watched (experienced) Days of Wine and Roses. Jack Lemon was a great comedian, but his serious dramatic performance probably turned me and others away from becoming alcoholic.

I've always enjoyed Sarah Silverman's strong comedy which is grounded in hard reality. We laugh because we see truth in new ways.

Stephen King could not create a more wrenchingly emotional story about the horror of personal depression. And the danger of deceit, anger and unrelenting despair. There are things in life that can't be controlled and the real horror is when they come from inside us.

Sarah Silverman's professional dramatic performance is magnificent. I can't wait for more from her- drama or comedy or both.
