Super insane when you think about how an actual person was capable of making something this impeccable. Earth-shattering romance with very little frills, works as well as it does in part because Jonze - seasoned craftsman that he is - refuses to cloud the central dynamic(s) with overbearing "hey it's the future everybody look" winking nor random tech overanalyzing which usually bog down these types of films and take away from what works. It's easy to forget that acting can be this perfect - from the seismic Phoenix lead performance to Johansson's heart-wrenching and constantly evolving vocal presence. And it's nice to see a technology-oriented future-set film that doesn't dive into annoying 'The State of Things' preachiness or look like a grodey 𝘉𝘭𝘢𝘥𝘦 𝘙𝘶𝘯𝘯𝘦𝘳 rustbucket bootleg. In short, it never lets its story take a backseat to obnoxious gimmicks, ever - so everything is allowed to breathe. Wish it didn't spoil the final frame of the goddamned movie on the back of the DVD case, but otherwise holy fucking shit the waterworks were turned UP on this one.

A Classic Album That Still Holds Up Almost 45 Years Later
Rumors is truly an essential listen for any music lover. The magic of this album still holds up almost 45 years later. It’s no surprise that it was one of the fastest-selling LPs of all time. I’m ashamed that it took me until 2021 to listen to it in its entirety! “Dreams”, “The Chain”, and “Go Your Own Way” are some well-known favorites that draw you into the album, which then introduces you to lesser-known masterpieces such as “Second Hand News” or “I Don’t Want to Know”. Listening to this album is a delight and has a perfect mixture of upbeat and slow songs. Paired with amazing music, the lyrics are equally amazing, especially the lyrics for “Songbird”. I hope Rumors continues to hold the cultural impact it has well into the future. With a rise in popularity of “Dreams” thanks to a viral Tik Tok video, I hope future generations will continue to pass down their love for Fleetwood Mac.
