    Coming Home in the Dark

    ★★★★

    “All right. Let’s buckle up.”

    At first I thought they were driving on the wrong side of the road, then I realized I'm just a dumb American 😩

    I've been an admirer of Daniel Gillies for probably a decade now. He's one of those actors whose projects I've mostly thought, respectfully, were just a bit beneath the caliber of the performer. Someone worthy of really juicy, prominent roles, particularly in film.

    ★★★★½

    “You’re not leaving Saltburn.”

    ★★★★★

    “Bad things happen even when people are careful.”

    Fair warning: stop here if you haven't seen this film.

    There are too many specific emotional details I feel I need to cover and I don't want to ruin the journey for those who may, too, get a lot of Ordinary People.

    I was driving to an appointment this morning and started tearing up thinking about exchange between Judd Hirsch's Dr. Berger and Timothy Hutton's Conrad during their late-night session in the…
