WATCHING
Rocks First post lock-down cinema trip. Loved all the girls, especially Rocks’ best pal Sumaya.
Freaks and Geeks Franco, Rogan, Segel and Cardellini
RBG notorious
Pen15 (season 1) lols
Adult Material lighthearted + funny – dark turn.
The Lighthouse What is Willem Defoe saying? What is happening? Watched on couch and needs to be in cinema
The Simpsons – mission to watch every episode again. So far Season 3
Rebecca I was made to read the book and liked it, fan of Ben Wheatley – Sightseers. But bit cheesy and meh. Looked good.
The Queen’s Gambit easy, binge-able, not convinced of the visualisation of her dreams of chess. Made me think of this Alexander McQueen show.
Kajilionnaire I like Miranda July’s books and short films but not seen her other features. Loved the weird setting of the foam factory.
Rosemary’s Baby weird
The Witches (2020) NO! 1990 film much better.
READING

Andy Warhol at Tate Modern – went by accident (Natural History Museum was closed) didn’t love it
Martin Schoeller photography Love his portraits. Jay Z and Bill Murray are faves. His identical series is great too.

They created a 3D map of the whole area which is pretty impressive, and (as the article mentions) it could be a good ‘canvas’ for some creative projects, as well as lots of different ways to put ads in front of people…
