Films watched in 2022:
↳  The Miseducation of Cameron Post (2018) dir. Desiree Akhavan
“It was cool, but sunny and bright and a good day for hiking. Each step in the plan clicked forth, like winding film on a camera: click, click, click, click, click. And then we were on the trail and on our way.”

Watching Hacks, finally, and I noticed a thing in “Tunnel of Love” (S1 E7).
Brief intimacy choreography rant incoming >>>
Ava, who’s bi, tells Deborah:
“I realized that I could connect more emotionally with women, which led to deeper sexual experiences. But sometimes I do still need penetrative sex with a dick to come. But I don't know. Maybe I was just conditioned by the porn that was fed to me by the algorithm, you know?”
- S1 E2, “Primm”
Then, S1 E7 opens with a dream sequence.
First, George—the guy from the casino who Ava had a bizarre, drug-fueled, emotionally intense night & brief hookup with, who then killed himself by jumping out a window the following morning when she went out for coffee—is alive and back in bed with her. They kiss, gently. He initiates, after watching her sleep.
His eyes are open. She smiles, she’s enjoying it—but neither of them say anything, and her eyes stay shut the whole time, only flickering open for half a second before they kiss on the lips and closing again. And it doesn’t start with a kiss on the lips—he kisses her neck first, building up to it.
Then, he pulls back and it’s Deborah in bed with her.
Shortly after they’ve had a drug-fueled, really emotionally intense and engaged weekend away together. After knowing each other a while and all these little moments of vulnerability and bonding, Deborah finally opened up.
They really connected. Emotionally.
So George pulls away and it switches to Deborah—but now, Ava’s awake. Deborah lies propped up on an arm, and both their eyes are wide open.

Deborah speaks, “Hey,” with a grin. Ava drinks her in, her face lighting up, and she speaks, too: “Hi.”
They kiss on the lips right away, both already invested. And neither pulls away until the housekeeper bleeds into the dream and wakes Ava up.
This—
Maybe Ava isn’t “really attracted to Deborah,” maybe it’s about power or Deborah’s meanness or Ava’s “fucked up sense of intimacy,” etc.
But y’all.
This is what happens when you LISTEN to CHARACTERS. As a DIRECTOR. As an INTIMACY CHOREOGRAPHER. As ACTORS and as WRITERS.
Ava said the thing. And then all those people executed on it, and showed us the thing.
It’s the ✨ATTENTION to DETAIL✨
