@aescling Ah man i loved this movie to pieces in high school. There is such a high level of craftsmanship in the filmmaking despite the story being mere entertainment which I appreciated dearly at the time. The script is razor-sharp, not a moment is wasted.

I have been curious to rewatch this one because there are many troubling elements in the film, things that would bother me a lot more now than they did at the time. Like Marty's dad being a peeping Tom who gets the girl at the end, or the joke that implies that Marty invented rock and roll, which is tasteless in light of the way rock and roll was appropriated in popular culture. I'm curious how I'd still feel about the movie despite these things

Do any of y'all follow any literary critics that you like? Blog posts and YouTube videos count as criticism in this context

@Ghast when I got wrist issues a couple years ago I didn't go to the doctor about it which I deeply regret now so I'm highly encourage following through with this

@lapis good morning, sorry you are having a stressful morning

@lapis there is a Goodreads reviewer who gave it 4 stars and said they would have given it 5 stars if the main character didn't talk shit about Israel on page 195

@lapis I stayed up to an ungodly hour last night to finish this one

Excellent book
