I could read you write about movies every day but I’m happy to settle for once a month. loved your take on movies I’m already obsessed with and so so excited to dive in the ones I haven’t seen yet.

BRILLIANT xx

The Fifth Element is the first movie I remember my parents letting me stay up late with them to watch after my brother and sister were in bed. One of my favourites. Loved reading this! Thank you for sharing with us.

Along Came Polly was my first Philip Seymour Hoffman, sometimes I like remembering my 7 yr old world when I thought he was like Jack Black-- congrats on the newsie!! 💌

Oh Tefi I love this and I love you. I watched Meet Joe Black with my best friend for the first time ever a few years ago as it’s one of her faves. I can’t wait to show her this article too. Imma make her watch every one of these other recs with me too.

I’m coming back to let u know that immediately after you published this is January I finally watched The Fifth Element, even tho my bf of 5 years has been telling me how good it was all along. I just trust your taste more than his

A woman looking at a woman looking at the world. I would take a class on the Tefi gaze! I love anytime you put your mind and heart in words that allow us to view the world through eyes that feel trustworthy enough to permeate my own membrane and influence my thoughts. Thank you for going through whatever you’ve gone through and for letting us in at this moment when you’re able to articulate it the way you do.
