Whatever else is missing will be posted next week, and then full reviews summing up each show before the new seasons start.

This is Us 1.18

Sara Paxton guest stars in this so-so episode.

4.5/10

Hollywood Darlings 1.07

I really hope this gets a second season.

Put your fucking hand down.
How rude.

3.5/10

The Good Fight 1.10

Your dad fled, you’re under arrest.

8.5/10

SVU 18.21

For SVU, it was such a shitty episode.

The next dead woman on the floor, that could be you.

2/10

Nashville 5.12

God bless Nashville for mentioning Daria.

When kids at school treat me like crap for being different, your music gets me through.
Oh my god, Daria! I love that show!
I know about depression.
You can’t push that kind of pain away, you gotta own it, deal with it every day. That’s what people do. They fail each other. So try again. Fail better.

9/10

Handmaid’s Tale 1.01

There’s an eye in your house, be careful.

I guess I need to rewatch 1.02 as the notes I took have gone missing

6.5/10

Handmaid’s Take 1.03

Alexis’s scream at the end and her facial expressions gained her an Emmy nomination and I couldn’t be happier for her!

Why only women?
I will resign my body to the use of others.
She was very pleasant looking.
In what way?
Did she ever touch you?
Did you know she was the gender trader?
You didn’t report it to your mistress?
But you knew what she was?
I knew she was gay.
That satan was an offense to God. She was a disguisting beast.
Because she was my friend.
Don’t! She’s pregnant!
No ice cream for you this month, young lady.
You won’t want what you can’t have.

10/10

The Handmaid’s Tale 1.04

God found a way to make you useful.

5.5/10

The Handmaid’s Tale 1.05

Rory Gilmore ran over some dude in this episode, woah.

Maybe we should skip tonight’s ceremony.
You can’t be sick every month.
Children. What else is there to live for?
Death.

3.5/10

The Handmaid’s Tale 1.06

Second to best episode after that wonderful 1.03 and who would have tjought the husband is alive?!

The children . All brought to you by pur handmaids.
They want to trade us dummy.
They don’t rape you, do they?
And stick his cock up your ass.
They rape me. Once a month.
I didn’t choose this.
They took my daughter.
Don’t be sorry. Please do something.
My country is dying.
My country is already dead.

5/10

The Handmaid’s Tale 1.07

They took my wife and daughter.
Gather them up for fertility reasons.
So she’s alive.

2/10

The Handmaid’s Tale 1.08

All should be collected and impregnated.
Maybe wife should be there for the act.
I will not be that girl in the box.

1.5/10

The Leftovers 3.05

And he shits 4 times a day.
I’m not one of those lunatics.

5.5/10

The Leftovers 3.06

Lorrie finally told Kevin about the baby she lost during the Departure.

I was pregnant, 16 weeks.

7/10

The Leftovers 3.07

Always a pleasure to hear the Beach Boys songs be used on TV shows and it happens more and more often recently! How disturbing was Kevin scanning his dick to get access to that freaking building?

Anyone can have your face, but not your penis.

5/10

The Leftovers 3.08

The series finale was not exactly what I expected, but at least we got some answers. Remember when back in season one Tom and Damien said we’d never learn what happened to the Departured, because the show is about the one who remained on Earth and their grief? Well I guess HBO pressured them for answers and I’m really glad they did. Why would Jill have her first kid in her late 40s though? How old is Kevin supposed to be in the end, late 60s? Goodbye, The Leftovers!

So you’re saying it’s your first time in Australia?
Jill married a great guy and has a daughter almost 1 year old.
How’s your dad?
Good, he’s 91.
I talk to Lorrie sometimes.
I didn’t change my mind. I went through. I walked through M
appletown. At first I didn’t recognise them. A boy, a teenager and a girl, 11 years old. I was aghost who had no place there. And that, Kevin is when I changed my mind. So much time had past. It was too late.

10/10

When We Rise 1.01

It’s shocking how I haven’t caught up on this show yet.

The lesbian thing.
The fact that someone is homosexual automatically rules out the possibility that he’ll remain happy for long.
I’m gay, dad. I’m gay.
It’s an illnes. It can be treated.
San Francisco is where we were told we could find our harbour.
Get your dyke face out of my station.
But I’m not a dyke.
God saves us gays.
I’m not one of them.
Be fabulous.
I’m not that sexual.
I need you to bring all the boys like you.
I worried I was a homosexual when I was 16, for a year.
Have you ever been arrested?
No, but I’m looking forward to it.
You love women, Roma.
Being black isn’t the only thing that is different about me.

10/10

When we Rise 1.02

Something natural. 8 colors.

I want you to be happy. And I don’t think this lifestyle will let you be that.
We’re lesbians. We show up. That’s what we do.
We are the lesbians and gays of San Francisco.
We are going to live.

4.5/10

Younger 4.01

Josh, I know everything.
You broke my heart.

2/10

Younger 4.02

You deserve better. You deserve someone who will treasure you.
20 something drama. Can’t stop them from acting their age.

3/10

Pretty Little Liars 7.15

I have to do this. Of course you do, that’s what makes you Emily.
Playing with people’s lives is an addiction.

5.5/10

Pretty Little Liars 7.17

I guess some dreams are meant to be just that, dreams.
I want to marry your daughter.
I thought you were ready to leave this town.
I am, just not the people in it.

4/10

Pretty Little Liars 7.19

Somebody’s always stealing the game from me.
This is Rosewood, Mona. Not Area 51.
Jump or I’ll push you.
Mona killed Charlotte.
She went into a safe place. Before anything bad happened.
Did you murder Jessica DiLaurentis? Yes.
She did this for you.
That’s what dying feels like.

Even though I love Amy Brenneman and Brad Siberling (hello, Moonlight Mile!) I am not starting Heartbeat. The pilot felt like Grey’s wannabe and we remember how Melissa George’s character got kicked out of the program. It’s Sunday, my notebook is full of notes and reviews, so here we go.

Some great news to start off, Melissa McCarthy has joined Gilmore Girls revival! Sookie’s back!

Shameless 6.08

Missing Shameless already. I though the guy was a pedophile, but pregnant woman fetish is gross too. I’m glad Debbie is no longer with that psycho family. The foot massage was too much, shameless, but very unnecessary.

I need a scary looking black man.
Wish I’d gotten into this business a long time ago.
You were singing that gay song.
Indeed I was.
Frank Gallagher 35 years ago!
The fuck I am, Grannie Quinnie.
Frank Jr.
Why is a man in Indiana shitting his pants.

10/10

Shameless 6.09

I was so happy when I saw Mandy! But she’s an escort now and killed a man. Lip being shocked about her driving a jeep and Ian not telling him where Mandy works, so he can be proud of her was absolutely incredible, and one of my favorite scenes this season. What’s with the commune living though?

Are you going to support Debbie as she unschools her way through life?
I met him through my service, escort.
Maybe something that doesn’t involve feces.
My nephew watches it on youtube.
You know that just because we were born here doesn’t mean that we end up here.
Is that her Jeep in the driveway?
Yeah, she found a job.

10/10

The Middle 7.18

Frankie saying her parenting skills are better then Nancy’s was amazing! And when Mike realized Sue’s no longer a child, too! I want some caramel popcorn balls too! Sue’s 19teen.

Just cause some of us have it down better than others.
I’m not done telling you how I’m a better parent than Nancy.
Brad and I got summer jobs at Dollywood.
Inappropriately touching a bunch of old guys an making their day.
Caramel popcorn balls.
But he couldn’t stop a woman.

7.5/10

Castle 8.12

Best Saw like episode of the season. Plane was last year right?

Wait what’s going on in that van? Is that my dad?
We had our best person on.
The guy is abducted like what twice a year?
He’s really good at what he does.

9/10

How To Get Away With Murder 2.14

It took me a while to watch the finale April 9th to be exact, and it was disappointing just like the whole season.

Eve’s’Did he hurt you?’ were the exact words Alex used 3 weeks later when he got 911 call from Maggie about Meredith on Greys.

Originally Mexico, I lived in Florida before law school.
We’re all bad people, that’s all we have in common.
What is this, a homeless shelter?
And then play us like little puppets.

7/10

Younger 2.09

Kelsey, I do get when an avocado post gets more likes than something more valuable, because for a long time, that was me. Also, in this episode a guy is *ing a sheep, so… um wtf?

More young creatives.
My avocado post got more likes.
She’s having an argument with an Uber driver about the ring.
It looks like I’m engaged to myself.

5.5/10

Younger 2.10

How did you like this season? It was light, but good.

I think he shares an assistant with a bunch of other guys. (I bet he does)
I’m not some emo teen who just lost their virginity.
Either you tell her or I will.

5/10

Younger 2.11

I hated Chad, I’m glad he’s gone, but they haven’t pulled such tragic deaths on Sex and the City, so wtf?

I’m tired of skinny jeans, but you just take a deep breath and hang in there.
Liza Miller is your mom?
Oh please tell me you’re not her new boyfriend.
Ice T
You can tell everyone about me, I don’t care. She deserves to know who she’ll be spending the rest of her life with.

3.5/10

The Simpsons 27.17

‘Excellent’ episode.

…Married to Homer.
Why am I on this? Swipe.
Finally I’m payed to act.
I’ll be in my trailer.
This isn’t Fiji water.
Someone’s using it for unmerry purposes.
Fishing license.
I’m dictating my autobiography.
Release. Release. Release!
That sounds vaguely sexual.
The Government owes us 2 million dollars. We owe them 37 dollars.
20% which is what your phone needs to stay in the green.
Excellent.

10/10

Thirteen 1.01

What a great show! It makes living in the UK bearable. Everyone who watches SVU will love it! But why on Earth did they name the male lead Elliot. Come on, try not to look like SVU.

There’s never been am escaped captive in the UK.
There’s a girl. It could be Ivy.
Bastard bleached the place.
The DNA’s come back as Ivy’s.
A hand on my neck pulled me back into a van.
Everything has changed but us.
He’s taken another girl.

10/10

The Family 1.02

I was enjoying this show until it turned out it’s not Adam.

They say once you’ve left home, you can never go back.
That’s for Adam, he never got sweets down there.
I was wearing these when he took me.
I need to touch the walls.
I need back up. I found a metal door. It’s the Adam Warren investigation.
The suspect is here and he’s burning the evidence.
I’m not the same person I was
so am I.
Yeah, but you have a good excuse.
So do you.

9/10

The Family 1.03

The idea of chipping sex offenders is game changing!

Once every 7 sleeps.
I regret all those years complaining about Wifi being slow.They should be chipped.
You can’t look at me, I’m your sister.

4/10

The Family 1.04

Second child went missing.
Is that him? Is that the men who took you?
He lost Adam so he found himself a new one.
Do you think he’ll do it though? Take another one?
The always do.

4/10

Pretty Little Liars 6.18

This half season is excruciating. I honestly have 5 episodes to watch and no desire to sdo so. I have also accidentally ruined the spring ending for myself – thanks TV Guide, so now I’m even less excited about watching them. I will try to watch them on Netflix when I’m off tomorrow.

Did they abort the baby? Or was it just a false alarm, I don’t remember at this point. What is wrong with being a cop? It’s a perfectly respectable job. I know that Toby did some one month long Mickey Mouse course, that would never pass as a cop course, but still, he’s a cop. Who needs college is they want to be a cop? Aria getting burned was just too predictable and fake. Makes me realize what everyone has been saying for the last two years at least, that this show has been on too long. I don’t know why I gave this episode so many points. I must have been tired.

There’s probably one of your beanies still in there.
Cause being with a cop is not good enough?

Hi guys, welcome back after Easter. My new 8 month old laptop died, which means I will have so much more time to post this week, as I won’t be busy watching films. Here are some reviews.

Greys 12.12

I am so happy they didnt kill Mer’s first patient. I was scared theoughout the whole episode that that was gonna happen. Her death would ruin the pilot we love so much. It would mess with the past and make us feel like there is no point in leaving since something we believed for 11 years now would have changed. There is no messing with the past. It’s our holy ground and I’m hlad Shonda gets it.

Someone said that. Wait that was me.
Guys, this room is full of dead people, show some respect.
She was my first patient.
They still let you be a doctor here?
She was a trainwreck.
So he thinks you should have been on that helicopter.
I work in peds. I figured it out.
You’re all grown up now.
So are you.
What happened to the other Dr Shepherd?
That’s a long story.

10/10

The Family 1.01

A new show from one of Shonda Rhimes’s writers about a boy who was kidnapped 10 years ago and his sudden reapearance.

Who are you?
I’m him.
They found that boy who was murdered 10 years ago.
The man is a sex offender.
Hi dad.
Hi, chief.
The man who was laying on top of me.
Why didnt you just run?
I did run. The first chance I got.
When was that?
Yesterday.
Maybe it was the decade of rape and torture.
Red dragon, he was breathing fire, right at me.
And all the other Adams who are still out there.
He doesn’t exist.

10/10

SVU 17.17

After 17 years at SVU Olivia got kicked out. What are you guys thinking of Olivia and Tucker?

There is no way that girl is 18.
Underage girls are being raped and trafficked.
They’re not cops, they’re rapists.
They forced me into a room and took turns raping me.
He’s raping 16 year olds while supposedly undercover.
So you don’t mention that you two are sleeping together.
He had everyone at SVU in kuffs.
I’m out. That is it. You’re dismissed.

10/10

The Middle 7.17

I still don’t understand why everyone has their wisdom teeth removed.

Think of it like Downton Abbey and I’m one of the basement people.
We fight this the way we fought that healthy snack thing.
This is the year of Sue 2.0.
You’re a Heck. Disapointment is your birth right.
Frab some napkins, we’re out of toilet paper.
Sue, are you crying?
Axl gave me a fork.
Sometimes you think you get an Elvis, but end up with an eagle. And thats okay. Eagles are great too.

5/10

Shameless 6.10

Weakest episode especially for a birth episode. Who else cried when they heard Debbie has named her daughter Frances?

Law, motherfucker.
I think I wanna be a cop.
And then I get a for asking me if I ever have been hospitalized.
Frances after her grandfather.
Frank?!

4/10

When Calls the Heart 3.01

As long as we’re no longer in Hamilton, I’m good.

I’m your new partner.

4/10

How to Get Away With Murder 2.13

Annalise’s gay ex-lover is the only reason the show is still watchable.

There’s not a day that I don’t lie to my clients.
Clients are some of the stupidest people you’ll meet.
Please tell me you just got fat.
Stop blaming me for your loneliness.
Call 911. There’s someone in Wes’s apartment.

8/10

Younger 2.12

What’s with a super weak finale?

You seem more fake now than when you were acting like you’re 26.

3/10

Grandfathered 1.19

This show certainly does not want to go out with a bang.

Cough syrup with codaine.
Replace it with pictures of handsome guys.
Movie selection process.
What’s the one thing none of them have?
A college degree.

I’ll watch chocolate-vanila babies.
I didn’t do gay sex in juvie.
I kinda like being in the middle of everyone’s shit.

The finale week. I started rewatching Greys season 11, as my dad suggested a rewatch. We’re reminiscing and I’m saying it will always be my fvorite show every time I click on the next episode. I’ll never be over how good it is. And how badly I care about Meredith and other babies. There’s nothing better than spending a decade watching a show, and going through different phases in your life while they go through different phases.

Greys 11.25

The finale week is here and I can’t stand another 4 month break from Greys. We love how Ben worships Miranda. I liked when Meredith told Webber and Catherine to stop whining, as she would love to hve one more minute with her husband. Meredith introduces her new sisters to dance party tradition she had with Cristina. She also tells Maggie to come to her with everything, as because of everything she went through, she is qualified to help her. My mom, who is also a big fan of the show, my whole family is thanks to me, said the season would end with Webber/Catherine wedding and it did. April and Avery ended, as Jackson gave his wife an ultimatum. Derek’s ferryboat tape concludes this somehow uplifting finale, as we say our final goodbyes to the characters we loved for over a decade.

People said I came from a broken family. Even though getting divorced is the least broken thing they ever did.
You will be Greys Sloane next chief of surgery.
You’ve mistaken an intern for an attending?
He was basically running the ER.
Id she moving out? Is there room for Amelia? You could take your old room, I could take my room, and Amelia could take Cristina’s.
No she’s selling the house with the children.
Sad widow is my friend. My best friend.
It’s my old phone. There is a voicemail on it. Password is 1515. And make sure you’re alone when you listen to it.
What’d the matter with you two?!
My husband died.
Today is the first day of your new job, and you have failed gloriously.
You have to teach them how to paddle their stupid feet.
You need a place to fall apart, I’ll be that place.
Jo, it’s a crime scene.
Sell Meredith her home back.
There’s no darkness in my life.
You should always come to me, cause I’m qualified to help you.
Come on, dance party.
No matter how dark it gets, the sun will rise again.

Revenge 4.23

Emily VanCamp explained on twitter that the dream sequence in which she got Victoria’s heart was just a nightmare, because I wanted it to be true. Getting your nemesis’ heart is the final ‘fuck you’ from the world. I wanted to write Victoria, but she wouldn’t have liked that either. The show ends with Victoria and David dying, Emily and Charlotte reconciling, Emily and Jack’s wedding and Nolan getting the last present from Ems. As the one happy thing about Revenge finale is that Nolan will continue avenging people.

RIP, Victoria Grayson. I will miss you dearly.

Goodbye, Revenge. You were good.

This has all started with Amanda Clarke changing her identity and ending with me changing mine.
Corpse I pass on as my own was my own mother.
It was only in death that my mother could do something good for her daughter.
You and I are the same.
Would you still approve of us today?
When this is all over, I’m gonna marry your daughter.
I died long before you were born. This is just a formality.
Well played, Ems. For the last time, well played.

SVU 26.22

Father kidnaps his son to teach him a lesson to never talk to strangers. When I heard the mother say he wanted to take him to Iran I immediately thought it would be like ‘Not Without My Daughter’, the scariest film ever starring the one and only Sally Field. The film who has been a subject of various discussions for many years and can come up in almost any conversation between my father and I. But it didn’t. Instead it wasn’t really an SVU case. Something the show has done more than half of the episodes this year. It’s definetely been the weakest season, but I believe it will get better next year.

To what do I owe the pleassure?
It was supposed to be a good lesson.

10/10

Nashville 3.22

I honestly think it was Beverly who died. I just wish we could get rid of the major storyline once and for all and just focus on the music. Layla smashing Jeff’s car seemed like such a Taylor Swift move, as she basically acted out the Blank Space video. Well, she was supposed to be the Taylor Swift to Christina Aguilera’s Katy Perry, so it works great. I am a little mad that Juliette has left Highway 65, but I don’t think there’s anything wrong with her, she’s an artist first. She’ll worry about her kid once she repairs her carreer.

Screw you, screw you, definitely screw you, lady.
I Rayna James take you Deacon Claybourne as my husband. Now don’t you dare leave me a widow.
I will hold my head up high, you will never see me cry.
Good news! Will Lexington is gay and I’m going on tour with Luke Wheeler.

10/10

Castle 7.23

The final ceremony was touching, and yet not compelling enough to save this season. Kate having to choose between being a captain or a states attorney is just the craziest. And here we were thinking the big plans for Kate was her getting pregnant with little Castlets. We’ll see how it works out. I love that Alexis has inly one year of college left and she still doesn’t know what she wants to do, because I still don’t have a backup plan for my life, and all my friends had all those years back in high school.

Carreer achievement in homicide.
If it wasn’t for that day in the woods, because of him, would I even be here?
Most people think that writing is a solitary profession. The long hours, the blank pages.

10/10

Bates Motel 3.10

It just wasn’t my favorite season. I loved how Norman said ‘what have you done’ to his mother, yet my favorite scene was when Norma hit Norman in the head with a vase. I have always disliked Bradley, so I don’t have some confused feelings I probably should be having. It’s not like he killed Emma. Bradley was always slutty and annoying and did not even treat Norman well.

People are usually disapointing.
We’re all doomed at the end.
Especially about the whacko Norma Bates and her son.
Mother, there’s really something wrong with you, we talked about it, remember outside the motel.
Mother would like to talk to you.
Mother, what have you done.
I did her a favor, poor girl had a feath wish, and most importantly, she was gonna take you away from me. I could never let that happen.
We belong together.

10/10

Bones 10.19

A crazy episode, what’s with Iran this week. Second episode focusing around Iran. Bones kicked Booth out of the house as she and Christine got threatened by some guy Booth owed 30 000. I am a little surprised to be honest, while my dad said he totally deserved it. Now back to Bones, they haven’t mentioned Angela and Hogins’ move to Paris, so I’m just gonna pretend the talk never happened. I am surprised to see Camille so surprised about Arastoo’s religion. It’s the third episode when she’s geniunely surprised about the customs. Shouldn’t you read about your fiancees religion when you date him, not to mention she has a PhD and yet she acts all dumb. I expected more from her. I just can’t stand ignorance on basic things, as you really don’t have to read much to know the basics.

I love you.
I don’t believe you. Go.

8.5/10

The Good Wife 6.23

I am not going to get into that Alicia/Kalinda scene as everyone else is. We’ve known about their quarrel for some time now, and we tried not to let it get to us. Yes, they did not film together, now move on. I am excited for Alicia partnering with Canning. I hope she does, nothing could be more interesting now, as the show was almost as dull this year as season 1. But then at least we had our Alicia/Kalinda friendship. I want to see Alicia and Canning arguing cases against Diane and Cary. It hurts not to know what Kalinda will do with her life, we didn’t even get a first draft of what her future will look like. We can assume she’ll be okay, but we don’t know if she even stays in Chicago.

Did you know Louis Canning’s wife works here?
Ask A for possible cooking recepies.
Made me miss sitting in a bar deinking with you.
My time with you as a friend was the best.
I’m sorry it got messed up.
I’ll never see you again.
I don’t think so.
Damn you three!
It’s Kalinda’s letter to me.
It said goodbye.
What is it with all those tough talking women!?
Wanna partner?

10/10

Scandal 4.22

Chuck shot the whole bus of jurors. But I am so pissed at this finale as Fitz threw Mellie out of the White House! And not just Mellie, Cyrus too! And of course now he’s living with Olivia, in the White House! Wtf, Shonda? How is that possible!? I don’t think Huck is dead and I have had enough of B613. Sure keep the father but enough with the B613 talk. Also, Cyrus was the one who auctioned Olivia off.

Are you going to tell your team mate you added slaughter to your resume?
Is thia why you wanted Olivia Pope auctioned off?
So much for being good guys, huh, Rosen?
Me running aroung like Nancy Drew.
I can’t have a soul. If i had I would never accomplish anything.

10/10

The Simpsons 26.21

Stupid Flanders.
Uncle Homer is not nice to you.
If you take her hand, you’ll enter world of puberty.
Are you being bullied?
I hate Ned Flanders because he’s better than me in everything.

3.5/10

Younger 1.08

Liza has to get together with Mariska’s husband and let the kid go. I think she tells him the truth in episode 12, as Sutton wrote on twitter they have a serious scene (finally). I am glad we still have 4 episodes till the break, as we know half of the summer shows aren’t coming back till september (our guilty pleasures, light as summer – faking it and switched at birth). I love Hilary Duff’s character, she’s so fresh and brings light to the show.

I don’t want to be one of those women who wake up in their 40s realising they forgot to live their life.
Here you are in a totally different department.
Is he looking?
He sure is.
Can we put on our sweats and watch Downton Abbey?
I’m the one sleeping with your husband.
You sure you’re 26?

Welcome to ReviewThisFilm

This website started as weekly reviews on movies and tv episodes, and a diary of the 700 new films I watched every year. Today it’s a place for me to write a few words on films and tv shows that leave some sort of impact on me. I no longer write in depth reviews, partially thanks to bad habits gained by spending many hours a day on Letterboxd, and partially because of my demanding day job.

If you have a film you would like me to watch and review,  please leave a comment.

Enjoy!

About me

I am the dark and twisty Meredith Grey, the mad Dexter Morgan, hoping to grow up to be a little more like the wise, but fun Nora Walker. I am an aspiring filmmaker. My favorite actresses are Jodie Foster, Sally Field and Julianne Moore. Favorite genre – psychological drama. I watch anything with a sexual or mental abuse plot. I used to be a horror freak. I am obsessed with Grey’s Anatomy, SVU and many more. My other interests include making oil and pencil portraits and wildlife conservation. I cannot say no to beautiful landscapes, travel, Aussie accent, TV/film quotes and avocados. I have recently moved back from Australia to the UK. I’ve been running this blog for the last 9 years. Here I comment on films and episodes I watch. Enjoy! – Joanne

Spent some time in Bham this week.
Goodbye 2018! Happy New Year featuring my favorite book of 2018 and 5 favorite covers of the year. I think I may make it a tradition and take a similar photo next year. May 2019 be everything you want it to be and so much more!
Merry Christmas everyone! 🎄🎁
Binley, I've missed you.
The indoor aqua park in the middle of the city centre is starting to make Coventry look worthy of its City of Culture 2021 title, especially from this spot, accompanied by the Coventry Cathedral.
Worth staying up for! Coventry, 7:34am.
🎄 Merry Christmas! #coventry
Bull Yard looks especially magical today
Christmas came early! Let's be honest, it's the only snow we'll see all year.
Morning!
This lovely sunset greeted me as I stepped out of the cinema after seeing Suburbicon last Thursday.
Doesn't get more Cov than this. #godiva #ladygodiva
Sunset right now.
For someone who lives 2h from London, I sure don't visit enough.
Got to hear the gong one more time before the renovations fully start!
Subtle sunrise just now.
Obsessed with this one! Best sunset we've had in months!
Sunset from my house.

favorite quotes

‘I used to think about
your life in New York. I tried to imagine your room. I kept track of the time difference, so I  knew when you were awake and when you were asleep.’ (Disobedience)

‘Nothing’s clean, Howard. But we do our best, right?’ (The Aviator)

‘You’re doing it worng. If you’re trying to kill yourself, cut vertically. They can’t stitch that up.’ (American Horror Story)

‘It’s impossible to worry about anything else when there’s blood coming out of you.’
(Short Term 12)

‘I wanted it to happen. And when we were girls… Even then, it was the same. It’s always been this way! I have always wanted it.’ (Disobedience)

‘No razors, no scissors, no fucking freedom.’
(Short Term 12)

‘Sometimes it’s easy, sometimes you play games in your head. You make up someone, someone good.’ (Greys)

‘Why did you get married, Esti? Why didn’t you just leave? So everything was all right when I left?’
‘No. I was ill.’
‘What sort of ill?’
‘In my head.’
‘If I had to sleep with a man, why not with our best friend?’
‘Oh, Esti…’
‘It hasn’t been a complete disaster.’
‘And that’s enough?! Do you have to have sex every Friday?’
‘It’s expected.’
‘It’s medieval. What happened to you?’
‘Nothing. You happened to me. And then I started teaching and that became important. I give them ambition.’
‘To do what? Push out seven babies and be a good wife?’
‘Don’t. Don’t. I help them to value themselves.’
‘Okay, but what about you?’
‘That is me. And you? Are you happy?’
‘Yes, I am.’
‘Have you been with other women?’
‘No. Not really. And you?’
‘No.’
‘But, Esti… Do you still
only fancy women?’ (Disobedience)

‘I just need something to happen. I need a sign that things are going to change. I need a reason to go on. I need some hope. And in the absence of hope, I need to stay in bed a feel like I might die today.’ (Greys)

‘She saved me my whole life. Without her, I’m nothing.’ (The Favourite)

‘Don’t wonder why people go crazy. Wonder why they don’t. In face of what we can lose in a day, in an instant, wonder what the hell it is that make us hold it together.’  (Greys)

‘I am not food, you cannot just eat and eat.’ (The Favourite)

‘At the end of the day, the fact that we have the courage to still be standing, is reason enough to celebrate.’ (Greys)

‘It was a good day. Maybe even a great day. Even when it was hard, I was the me in my head. There was a moment when I thought I cant do this, I cant do this alone. I close my eyes and imagine myself doing it, and I did, I blocked out the fear, and I did it.’ (Greys)

‘What happened last year when you fell in the water?’
‘I almost drowned. Do you think I did that for kicks?’
‘You put your hand in a body cavity that contained unexploded ammunition.’
‘I was trying to save a patient!’
‘Why is it that every other person in that room had the sense to hit the deck? You know people run away from this line between life and death. You seem to stand on it and wait for a strong wind to sway you one way or the other. You’re careless with your life. You’re not slitting your wrists but you’re careless. Probably because your mother told you you were a waste of space on this planet. The problem is you believed her. And if you don’t want out one of these days you’re going to die because of it.’  (Greys)

‘Was your life not working when you let that slip out from under you?’
‘When are you going to stop suggesting that I’m suicidal?’
‘When you start acting like someone that wants to be alive.’
‘Give me my chart.’
‘Why?’
‘Because I’m not suicidal, and if it says that I am, then it’s wrong.’ (Greys)

‘No, I’m not quitting. I don’t quit things.’
‘No, actually you do. Your mother quit your father. Your father quit you. You quit your boyfriend and if I read your hospital chart correctly you quit your life momentarily on a couple of occasions. You quit. It’s what you know how to do.’ (Greys)

‘There is nothing wrong with me.’
‘Then show me your arm.’ (Degrassi)

‘When I lived in Porpoise Spit, I used to sit in my room for hours and listen to ABBA songs. But since I’ve met you and moved to Sydney, I haven’t listened to one Abba song. That’s because my life is as good as an Abba song. It’s as good as Dancing Queen.’ (Muriel’s Wedding)

‘You can’t take a picture of this. It’s already gone.’ (Six Feet Under)

‘Look, my whole life, I have been the freak. The girl who nobody picked for dodgeball. The girl who didn’t have a mom. The girl who dressed funny because it was her dad buying her clothes. And then, tonight I looked at these people, and I thought maybe there’s a future where I don’t have to be a freak. Maybe I can be who I am and that’s okay.’ (Everything Sucks)

‘Dr, I have been this way since…since I can remember. There is no cure.’ (American Horror Story)

‘He was so crazy about me, I couldn’t breathe. So we tried drinking our way back into love, but it never made sense in the morning. So I ran. And every time I came back, he was here. And he was still crazy about me.’ (My Blueberry Nights)

‘All we have is this moment. The future is just a fucking concept that we use to avoid being alive today. So be… here…. now.’ (Six Feet Under)

‘On the train coming here, we were in the same cart, I saw you, you were reading and you feel asleep. I didn’t dare to look at you, you were so beautiful, it was scary. Afterwards,  I couldn’t stop thinking about you. It made me smile. Then I thought of all the men who would get to hold you, who’d make you laugh. How lucky they were.’ (Enemy at the Gates)

‘Where the hell was I that year?’
‘Your were watching television’. (Everybody Loves Raymond)
