Nacho Libre
It might be the most artful comedy ever. This movie has everything: a luchador-friar-cook, secret tunnels, the best corn in the city, cinema's greatest training montage, and stretchy pants! From the "recreation clothes" to the "Lord's chips," this movie is "the best!" Plus, it's (loosely!) based on a true story.

Banshees of Inisherin
Captivatingly Stark Contrasts: Rudimentary satisfaction battles complex mental instability. Turmoil unfolds in slow motion, trapping your gaze, similar to a roach in a sticky trap. Desolation and depression are well represented and reflected in empty, gray landscapes. Light-hearted characters and wry comedy bring a deep beauty to these dark places.

"Everybody Needs" These Songs
You know those beneficial tasks that you want to do, but they're not important enough to actually do? They circle the drain of your mind, just waiting to pass the threshold into actuality. I'm talking about: scouring the internet for organization items like beds with storage, or color-coordinating your closet, or even making a list of baby names even though you're not pregnant, yet. Some of them are chores, and some of them are recreational, but both take up space in your mind. Eventually, you have to write them down to remember them or you have to finally do them. Once you do, there is a satisfaction in bringing them to life. Funny enough, categorizing my favorite songs has been in my brain drain for months. With the Melodic Milestone Playlist challenge now in existence, its a task that has become "beneficial" enough for me to do. And, I'll definitely experience satisfaction while doing it.
