This wk, I wrote about watching ANORA with a shattered heart. I rarely get that personal but ppl - especially men - keep telling me it made them emotional & I'm touched. Every time I put something new out into the world, I'm honored that it's read. Thx.💙 bit.ly/4g9kq4B - ThreadSky

Beautiful words. Anora shattered my heart into a million pieces and this piece captured shades across the spectrum of emotions I felt. Brilliant writing.

Aw, thank you so much.

I appreciate the honesty in your vulnerable words. I know that sending this piece out into the internet may seem like casting your words into the void, but just want to highlight that your writing inspired and engaged me. 🫡

Beautiful writing... Can't wait to see this.

filmintuition.bsky.social•76 days ago

Thanks, oh no, sorry to have spoiled it.

jonnybgood1365.bsky.social•76 days ago

Don't worry... There have been way too many hints on various podcasts, so you spoilt nothing.

jonnybgood1365.bsky.social•73 days ago

Just seen it. My word that last 15 minutes was... Well can't really put it into words, but any broken toy can relate to support seeming transactional.

filmintuition.bsky.social•73 days ago

Glad you caught ANORA. The broken one in my relationship - by his own admission - was the dude & all support came from my side of the fence but anyone who's ever gone through something romantically harsh can definitely relate!

This is great… and you’re great for opening up in this piece.

Thanks for such an insightful take on a great film.

I had a thoroughly enjoyable time talking with Mr. Baker about it.

Thx!

Yesterday, I woke up to a message from one of the toughest dudes I know who said the piece made him cry & think about all of the relationships in his life & I think I owe him a box of tissues now.

filmintuition.bsky.social•74 days ago

It's written in the introduction but just in case you miss it, please be aware that this essay does include spoilers.

juliusbarthelme.bsky.social•74 days ago

Thank you for the beautifully written piece. I seldom get emotional reading film pieces, but your piece hit hard in ways many of us can relate. Thank you. 🙏

filmintuition.bsky.social•74 days ago

Thank you, Jay, that's very kind.

roxana-hadadi.bsky.social•77 days ago

jen, this piece is so good. I'm always here to talk and wish a pox upon this man, by the way. <3 hugging from afar
