The Chronology Of Water

When famous actors decide to try their hand at filmmaking, the results can be — and often are — unremarkable by design. Timid and safe with a network TV aesthetic that screams “I’m a lot more afraid behind the camera than I am in front of it.” Not so of Kristen Stewart’s…

I really do live for movies made entirely by people who have torn their hearts out. You can tell, there’s so much in this (inevitable with such a life). Kept thinking about Jennette McCurdy’s memoir as well tbh. Truly believe every single shot has a hell of a lot to say,…
