Home Again (2017)
Home Again (2017)
2017 | Comedy, Drama, Romance
A single mother, living with her two daughters in the sunniest part of LA is swept of her feet into polysemic ties between love, anger, confusion and men.

Home Again tells the story of a coming out and embracement of nostalgia through storytelling and friendship. The movie takes the audience on a ride through the typical life of filmmakers and performers inside the entertainment industry and captures the real life context beautifully through intricate directions in realism.

Whereas this movie this movie hits ominous tones of sad context, there is just enough comedic relief to make it a perfect heartwarming date night movie.

This really didn't grasp me and I couldn't bring myself to carry on reading. I feel like the concept could have been good but I just couldn't get into the story. I don't know if it was the way it was written or the storytelling flow, I feel bad but I just couldn't.
It's taken me a long time to get here, before I would just power through a book regardless, I'm glad that I've reached a place where I can now say "this isn't doing it for me, and there's so much more out there to read"

As excited as I was for an "Art of the movies" book(retroactively, maybe I should've read the synopsis more carefully.),this is NOT that book. However, it still hosts a treasure trove of knowledge once you accept that. It's still super fascinating to read all about the creation of an interconnected movie franchise, because rather you love or hate Marvel movies, there's just no denying that what they've accomplished is nothing short of magic.

Herc is the story of Hercules told by the people who knew him. I really enjoyed this style of storytelling, it seemed more personal, and unlike the traditional myths, we could see how Hercules actions impacted on those around him, and those he loved.

This isnโ€™t a story for the faint-hearted. Itโ€™s graphic both in violence (he was a violent man) and sex (who liked sex). Also, it would probably help if you knew the story of Hercules before starting this. It can dart around a bit from person to person.
