Wow our thoughts on Leave the World Behind and Saltburn were completely identical, down to my star ratings on Letterboxd. Guess this means I have to watch Anatomy of a Fall next!

Thanks as always for your fantastic recs. :)

For LA - Highland Park is fun! Good shops and food. For Tulum - cenotes!

Love your newsletter! Looking forward to adding All of us Strangers to my TBW list. I just watched Past Lives and absolutely loved it - it sounds like one that might be up your alley, too.

If you like that curd pavlova, can I suggest this one. It has passionfruit and strawberries and it’s out of this world. It’s actually annoying as it’s so popular I never get to bake anything else as everyone requests this. And........it’s very easy. Enjoy ☺️

For LA, Gjelina and Gjusta are both wonderful. Sqrl is really good for brunch.

I’m glad to see someone else had the same opinion about Good Grief. Every casual review I read about it was that it was beautiful, deeply moving, etc. But I felt like it didn’t even scratch the surface with digging into processing grief. Felt very mediocre.

We also watched Leave the World Behind. So, so bad. The ending was perhaps the worst, the bit about the Teslas was funny. Not worth it!
