Based on the bizarre coincidence with Digit, I have decided to watch all of Aubrey Plaza and Jeff Baena's collective filmographies and also separately try to push through my backlog of reading material (which is mostly from Digit).
The first entry to watch seems to be Jeff Baena's co writing credit on I Heart Huckabee's. Started with that tonight.
It's hard to enjoy stuff fully without knowing if Digit is safe but this movie is really good. Lot of elements making it hard hitting for me, like the whole plot thread about coincidences.
Definitely the best Mark Wahlberg performance I've seen. He really made his character feel real while playing a completely unrealistic character in a fever dream of a movie.
The lessons in the movie were reaffirming of my own beliefs, about everything being interconnected and people being less different than they think and stuff. I mean, it was reassuring to see that the people who made this movie see some of this stuff the same way I do. One takeaway I can count as a new lesson is to keep in mind that perhaps "human drama is inevitable."
On the other hand it made me realize I better try not to invest too much in hoping to get answers or insights about my situation from watching TV or movies. Art imitates life and the stories might mirror or parallel mine but I'll still just wish I could ask Digit which of these movies and shows she's seen, and what she thought of them.
I did already watch some of Parks and Recreation based on her recommendation. I keep saving the rest to watch later and I probably will still keep saving some to watch later until I either find out she's safe or I die myself, because I don't have much else to watch recommended by Digit. If I binge it, first time watching each part is gone forever.
Not sure if I'll continue chronologically or what. Also not sure if I'll watch more tonight or when. There won't be any schedule, this isn't some event to follow, I just want to watch it all and write down my thoughts.
