I had a recent thought rewatching some clips from this. In some ways it feels like Linklater both doing and making fun of the angsty Fabelmans/Here/etc. type late style retrospection. Of course, to your point, many of his movies are that kind of jam, so maybe it’s just Rick being Rick.

Not sure whether this one will work for you, honestly. It’s kind of story-light but it’s more focused and less noodley than I know bugs you. Scott is awesome in it though, could’ve used even more in him.

Will be taking my daily hit of Qualludes for sure.

Sounds like the structure might mitigate some of Linklater’s navel-gazey tendencies, which, the mileage on those can vary depending on the movie. (And on one’s individual preferences, of course.) I’m glad to see Andrew Scott getting regular work these days.

Also, the Margaret Qualley posting must continue until morale improves.
