Silver Screen Heartthrobs

As someone who has always been just as much into fictional worlds as the real one, I've had some hardcore crushes on nonexistent humans over the years. From Daniel Striped Tiger to Howard Roark to Weetzie Bat, they've taken many forms and ranged from 'friend

'You Were Never Really Here' (2018) by Lynne Ramsay

Vibe: This film is a beautiful, strange, horrible, wonderful nightmare .. like after a night of drinking in college when you wake up, remember fragments of the night, and have to piece together your actions. Sometimes it's slow and languid, like when Joe stuffs his pockets with rocks and
