Got around to watching I Saw the TV Glow on Saturday night.

I loved the movie, but like it wasn't as emotionally devastating as I'd hoped it would be. Maybe I'm just busted? Idk like I definitely connected with the film on a lot of its parts/aspects. There were even certain parts of the film where I already knew what the main character was going to say before it was said.

spoilerThe part on the bleachers where Tera/Maddy was asking Isabel about her sexuality hit a little too close and I literally answered "I don't know" out loud before Isabel did.


Idk maybe I'm more emotionally locked up than I thought or maybe my expectations were too high or maybe I was just too ready to be analytical instead of just taking the movie as it comes.

I'll re-watch it again, probably soon. I'll definitely remember it as one of my favorite movies, I identify far too personally with the text for it to not be; I just wanted to share the connection with it that many trans people are saying they felt with it, and I'm a little disheartened that I feel like I didn't connect in the same way that some people did.
