Guardians of the Galaxy and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol.2 are a delight, aside from the airbrushing. Surfwise is about a doctor who checks out of the rat race (kids in tow) to pursue surfing. Decades later, how do his kids turn out? The Good Fight season 2 continues to impress Helen with its "wokeness." It's Kind Of A Funny Story is about a teen who spends some time in a psychiatric institution, which Niall has experienced and wrote about in the Globe and Mail ("Niall McGee Didn't Believe in Depression--Until Cancer Medication Put Him In A Suicidal Spiral"). He also mentions the recent article by Shannon Purser (Riverdale, Stranger Things) on Depression and OCD in Teen Vogue. Then it's the Joan Didion doc The Center Will Not Hold, and Not Another Teen Movie featuring all the baby tees and thin 90s eyebrows you can get your eyes on.
