Watched Bring Her Back because I’m going to be DP’ing a project that’s pulling some visual inspiration from it. It’s a dark film. Not just in the way it looks, but in what it sits with. I’m usually pretty critical of these modern family-trauma horror stories. A lot of them feel like they just want to shock or suffocate you. But this one had heart. It didn’t feel like it wanted to punish the audience. It had something to say, and the characters felt real. I appreciate it the fact it didn't use grief as a set dressing. It had real opinions and I felt them.

It's self care day....which means I'll be sitting with a hair-mask in my hair for two hours. What is your favorite self care ritual you have? How do you make yourself feel "reset"? Do you make a point to always have a fresh set of nails every week? Do you live in skin care world? I think it's important to commit time to your mind and body every week. It forces you to slow down and put you in the mindset of "I can do this". Let me know in the comments!

@Emily Richardson and I read this on the way home from our family vacation. Its a short read, but a beautiful and heartbreaking and hopeful story. I highly recommend it.
