Yeah, and I guess I felt guilty. And maybe, again, it was expectations of people talking about, like, this is one of the greatest films they'd ever seen. I didn't know if they were tricked by the overture, perhaps. Correct.

The intermission of, like, hey, we got a little Gone with the Wind action here, you know?

It is a really good movie, but there was just, at least for me personally, my experience at the end of it, I don't know that I cared enough about any one person to feel something the way that I think it was intended.

Yeah, I mean, that was kind of a tough spot all along. I loved the beginning. I loved the guys coming over on the boat. I think it was really cool how they kind of planted the seed that, like, this guy's not afraid to party. Like, right into it.

And maybe it's because the audience isn't as familiar with her that makes that work. Like some of those battles that you'll have in casting where it's like, OK, no, I always kind of talk about like movies where people will say, you know, what's the first thing when you tell somebody they should see a movie?
