It's 7am and I haven't been to bed yet, I've been watching and re-watching Bridgerton season 4 and can't stop. I love benophie so much, they completely captured my heart and now it's over and I don't know what to do.

Guess I'll spend tomorrow (I guess technically today now) watching Luke and Yerin interviews, I love them your honour! 😍😍😍

Re-watched the Peaky Blinders finale last night in anticipation of seeing the movie later and wow. I forgot how good it was, just beautifully made and incredibly acted and directed, such a perfect show. So excited for the film now!

I watched The Last Duel earlier and wow, I'm still processing it. I feel like it'll be one of those movie that stays in your head for a really long time.

It was a obviously quite a difficult watch in places but I'm so glad I watched it. I knew so much about it going in but it still had me so gripped and tense it was incredible. I literally knew what was going to happen but my heart was still pounding and I had so much adrenaline running through me that I literally was shaking for hours afterwards, such an intense film.

It's the first film I saw in theatres since pre-pandemic and it made me fall in love with the cinema experience again, a film like that needs to be seen on the big screen.

The acting was absolutely incredible, Jodie was phenomenal, I've seen the majority of her previous work and I know she's good but her performance was oscar worthy. Adam was fantastic as always, so good to the point where my stomach would churn everytime he came on screen. I love Adam so much and I know how sweet he is in real life so for him to be able to make me nauseous just be being on screen just showed how brilliant he was in that part, he gave me such bad vibes. There were parts where he drew me in though too, I thought he would be an out and out villain but he really wasn't. The character had so many layers and he played them all perfectly!

In fact every actor played their part so perfectly, I didn't want each chapter to end. I'll be honest, I went to see the film for Adam and Jodie but Matt Damon and Ben Affleck were also amazing, Affleck's character had some great comedy moments that I wasn't expecting too and he really lifted the film when it needed it, an unexpected delight!

The three chapter structure was so good too, it dragged in places but I'm so glad they chose that structure, it highlighted just how good the acting was considering the events and lines stayed the same but the scenes had completely different intentions. It was a brave move but I'd never seen anything like it, it was like reading a book but seeing the action play out in front of your eyes!

I love films that suprise me and everytime it switched points of view my opinions of characters kept changing and I found that so clever, subtle changes in dialogue and acting told so many stories, it was so clever.

The characters felt so human and real, I would have loved to see whole movies dedicated to each of them, I truly felt like we were stepping into their lives for a short time and we were only seeing a snapshot. It felt like all of them had real lives beyond the timeline of the film and I couldn't get enough of them!

The locations and costumes were perfect too and the lack of music most of the time made it feel so natural. It was such an immersive experience, I felt like I was there with the characters.

The fight scene was absolutely brutal but so well filmed, I've not seen a decent medieval knight movie in ages so I was loving it, even knowing the outcome of the duel didn't stop me wondering was going to happen next, I was truly gripped!

The whole film really moved me, I thought maybe the themes of sexual assault would feel a bit forced for a modern audience but I didn't feel that at all, it was such a powerful story and knowing it was real made it so much more so. She was such a strong woman to go through what she did and refuse to back down until justice was done. It breaks my heart to think of the countless women who never got justice or who's husbands lost their duels and condemned their wives to death. The opinions of the time astounded me, I'd forgotten what silly things about science and religion they used to believe were true, some were laughable, others horrifying. The misogyny of the times blew me away. Again, I knew what it was like back then for women but seeing it potrayed on the big screen really hammered home how lucky I as women to live in this day and age and how lucky I am to live in this day and age at all. The film highlighted to me just how hard life was back then for everyone without modern conveniences and the whole film has really stuck with me.

Not a film I'll watch again in a hurry but a masterclass of acting and filmmaking and I recommend it to everyone. Once again so thankful to Adam for introducing me to films I wouldn't otherwise watch, now please play someone nice again, watching you play such dispicable people physically hurts me 😂

I wasn't going to get involved in the carnage that was the whole recent Adam Driver debacle but I feel like I have to express something now its all been cleared up.

I've been part of this "Adam stan" tumblr community for years now and despite the nasty behaviour that still unfortunately goes on between Reylos and Antis, overall I've felt proud to be part of group of mostly genuinely enthusiastic and loving and creative fans. However since yesterday I was stunned to see the fandom literally fall apart over one rumour founded over an interview that was mistranslated.

Myself and many others remained neutral throughout, waiting for the story to be elaborated on. I found it hard to believe Adam would have hit an elderly cast member with a chair but nor did I want to defend someone I don't know personally or call a victim a liar.

I assumed from the beginning that there must have been some confusion in translation and that Adam's behaviour no doubt had caused another actor discomfort which is not acceptable but also not worthy of being considered "abuse". After I was proven correct, I was happy that I was right in thinking Adam hadn't assaulted anyone however I was disheartened to see people who had turned their back on him in an instant now saying they knew all along it was a misunderstanding.

I've see enough fandom drama to realise that no one is probably going to learn from this however I hope that some people are reminded that whether a celebrity you look up to is involved or not, you should not jump to conclusions and send hate and "cancel" someone without proper evidence!

I was disgusted to hear some of my close friends on here were sent death threats and harassed because they refused to condemn Adam without sufficient evidence that he'd done anything wrong.

I was also disgusted to see so called Adam fans insulting the victim in this scenario and hoping Adam sues her for her slanderous comments.

The interview she gave was not in English, it was translated the wrong way and as we've seen from her recent reiteration, she didn't mean her comments to come across as harsh as they did. She probably feels as awful as Adam might feel about being accused. Neither of them deserve the hate sent their way and it upsets me to see how toxic fandom can be.

Adam's behaviour may have been upsetting but it was not abusive. Real abuse survivors have no doubt been triggered by this whole event and they don't deserve that either.

Again, I don't know Adam in real life and wouldn't want to comment on any anxiety condition he may have or to judge him for the rules he has in place for him to do his job to the standard he expects of himself, I just hope people can learn from this and most importantly:

-believe victims firstly

-do not blindly support people you nothing about in real life.

-however also do not condemn people when you don't know the facts

-please refrain from judging anyone until all the evidence is brought to light

The fact this event even occurred was an unfortunate accident and I just hope no one has been severely upset by it.

We need more love and compassion within fandom and I hope in the future, bar the few who will always cause trouble, we will be more understanding and patient in these sorts of scenarios.

Also to the people who said they "knew" Adam was an abuser all along because they don't like him because he played Kylo Ren or because he was in the military or you don't find him attractive or whatever, please take a long look at yourself and stop feeling the need to hate on someone you don't know, it solves nothing and just makes you look brainless.

OK rant over, spread love and compassion people✌️

I watched No Time To Die earlier and I'm very much not OK
