In this time of corona, I so appreciate getting deep dives (pun about the movie about swimmers? Who knows.) from the only other Criterion Channel subscriber who seems to be way into their subscription. I saw PORTRAIT OF A LADY ON FIRE 4 times (!!!) when we could still go to the movies and I rewatched GIRLHOOD a few weeks ago. #SciammaHive is strong. I love the way you write about pop culture and I will now shamelessly campaign to be your friend somehow even though no-one can ever go outside again.
