Elizabeth Olsen recommended Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom (1984) in Movies (curated)

"Indiana Jones, that trilogy I just rewatched on a plane from a holiday I just took. I watched all three, and Temple of Doom just continues to win me over. I know; usually, people like The Last Crusade, and there’s a lot of love for Raiders, because it’s the original. But Temple of Doom is just, to me, so funny and entertaining and fun. And the kid from Goonies — Hot Shot? Short Round. He’s so funny, and I grew up with Goonies, but I prefer him in Indiana Jones."

Book Rating

Enjoyed this book. It's an easy read, would probably make a good holiday book. But it is based on a difficult, challenging subject and is both heart-warming and disturbing at the same time.

I loved Lou, the main protagonist and thought she was a very vivid character with depth, richness and lots I could relate to. Whilst the book has a very serious subject matter underpinning the plot, the story is really about Lou and her journey maturity, independence and self-discovery.

A thought-provoking book capably written with sensitivity.

Movie Favorite Watch

"For one, I remember seeing it on the TNT marathon for a weird American holiday — a random birthday of a president or something — and they were doing this marathon, and I watched it and I watched it again and again and again on this marathon, and I couldn’t stop watching it. From that point on, I remember I went out and got the AFI top 100 list — back before you could look it up online — and I decided I was going to watch every single movie on that list."
