Some days ago (probably a week! 😭) I did this sketch of my beloved Fronzie and Richie from Happy Days just to see how to illustate them!

What do you think? ❤️

Also, I think I’ll take some time out from here and other socials for the next few weeks! I’ll try to keep up with the messages and my DMs will be open for commissions and to chit chat 🌸✨

Living (2022) - REVIEW

SYNOPSIS

Mr. Williams (Bill Nighy), a veteran civil servant receives a medical diagnosis that inspires him to cram some fun into his remaining days. He meets a sunny young colleague (Aimee Lou Wood) who seems to have the love for life that had previously escaped him.

There are some films like this that you might enjoy while you're watching them but often find yourself forgetting about them a short time later. Living has too much going for it to be just forgettable; the period design of post-war 1950's Britain looks stunning, the score by Emilie Levienaise-Farrouch elevates it further and all that's before we take into consideration the central performance by Bill Nighy. Nighy, much like the film as a whole, is incredibly understated and subtle but the emotion is clear to see. Nothing about it is melodramatic or over the top but neither is it a bleak affair. There's a lot here that's both funny (the British bureaucracy) and moving at the same time. It's a remarkable look at what it means to be alive and it resonates strongly particularly in moments when Mr. Williams ponders where time went and how we become the things we become. He's aided by a strong cast with Aimee Lou Wood and Alex Sharp being particular shout outs. But director Oliver Hermanus deserves the bulk of the credit for crafting this understated but incredibly stylish film that hits all the right notes to be something special. Classical in its execution but its themes are universal.

VERDICT

Surprisingly uplifting rather than bleak with a classical approach to the filmmaking. Carried by Bill Nighy, Living is stylish and moving examination of what it means to be alive without ever feeling manipulative.

4/5

I had the weirdest fucking dream last night . It was like a weird fan fic for happy days??? Like after Richy graduated highschool he moved in with the fonz? And they were both like, ahh the life of a bachelor, am I rite. Then they got older, all their friends started to get married and whenever their friends would do couples things they would just bring each other and it was no big deal, but slowly as time went by this undercurrent of tension grew, they both wanted more but bc of the time period homophobia they were silent about it and it just grew and grew and in my dream it was mostly just them staring at each other a lá that one homoerotic thor cabin epic. Then as they got older when a lil more gay people were coming out, they finally both realized what the strange lonely and longing feelings they had were, and they just sorta fell together. They kept the new dimension to their relationship quiet and low-key, as the years go by their friends notice but dont say anything bc they are glad to see them happy again . It finished with them married in wheelchairs ... why did I dream this? Why was my subconscious like ahhh yes this is what this girl needs right now .
