One of your must reads
It maybe an old book (mentioning the great American depression more than once) but the information will never go out of date. As I stated it's not a light read but you get a history lesson, a self help and business book all rolled into one. It should be on the list of must read books in your lifetime.

Marin is lonely, she’s drowning in it. Her friend (maybe more) Mabel tries to save her from her loneliness. As the story goes alone we piece together a past Marin was unable to face. It was really interesting how inactive the actual sequence of events were, but it remained engaging through sporadically having flashbacks to Marin’s past.
Lovely story, kinda gay, depression and anxiety present and discussed.

I actually thing I like this better than they both die at the end now - after reading this it makes you think about your life - I mean, I was in his place years ago and it brought back so many memories - pushing past your fears/issues and moving into a new phase of life is so astounding sometimes - anyone with depression should truly read this book - it's absolutely spectacular.

I've suffered from anxiety and depression since the age of 11. I struggled with my mental health which brought me close to suicide a couple of years ago. Films were my way of escapism and they certainly helped me over the years. So recently I have decided to change the logo for Lover of Filmz. The heart in the middle is coloured green which many charities use to represent mental health.

Movie Favorite

"The wonderful, ill-fated Carole Lombard stars in this perfect, slick Depression-era romantic comedy. I like that obsolete terms such as “forgotten man”—which in this case refers to the homeless William Powell—can live on forever in the movies along with the stars who utter them. Thankfully, New York no longer has Hoovervilles, but I regret that the madcap Manhattan socialite seems to be an extinct species."

I love Frozen and, while not as good as the first one (yet better in other ways), I love the second movie too! It does seem to touch on depression just enough that even my 9 year old was in tune with what they were trying to depict, but not so much that it was a turn off. The story, overall, was sweet and happy, with several life lessons hidden within.

Made-for-tv continuation/spin-off from both Netflix (and, latterly, Disney+) The Punisher and Daredevil respectively, with Jon Bernthal's The Punisher having escaped from the custody he was shown in at the end of Daredevil: Born Again Season One and initially, here, deep in the throes of depression.

Until a bounty is put on his head.

And things get (very) violent once again.

Not for the squeamish!
