There’s something about these Richard Linklater films, man. It’s hard to know exactly how to describe the phenomenon that is a Linklater picture, with each of his movies containing a spirit that can’t be seen, but a spirit that has such a tangibility that audience members come away from a project enveloped by his world building, his characters, and his themes. His latest film, Everybody Wants Some, manages to be so many things at once: a sports film, a coming of age story, a brilliant comedy, and a deep rumination on college life and the human condition.
This week on Girls, felt like we were watching a short film…of a woman who doesn’t know what has happened in her life and how did everything go so wrong…and how did it all lead up to this.

If any of you have followed me or this site since it has been around, you are familiar with me saying “*squints*” as a reaction to things. I often use it as a form of shade, to signify something that I think is ridiculous and deserving of little to no further examination. There’s probably a
