I have thoughts on ANORA and QUEER, spoiler caution.
Anora and Eugene, the objects of desire, do not allow the audience to see their interiority until one final transformative act of intimacy, after which they are shattered.

The indecipherable nature of Anora is used to create tension in the audience, because you never know until the end if she’s being played or not. I didn’t really enjoy that not-knowing, but found it less frustrating in QUEER, perhaps because Anora is the main character and Eugene is not.
I was frustrated by the opaqueness of both performances, but the indecipherable nature of Eugene is necessary for the audience to empathize with Lee’s desire for telepathy.

I wished I’d used the fucking conspiracy theorists instead of the cows. Nobody would’ve cared if I’d turned people inside-out who think vaccines have nanites in them that mine cryptocurrency. But cows watch sunsets, man!
I’m happy for everyone who likes huge complex TTRPGs and Magnus Archives, but I would love a simpler roleplaying or deckbuilding game with amazing artwork of Smirke’s 14 and the avatars and the archive staff.
I’ve never felt compelled to block anyone on Letterboxd, but I just did it to someone who rated Hundreds of Beavers with a half star. Nothing that person has to say could possibly be enlightening.
