I liked Togetherness. With Looking and The Jinx, it was part of my Sunday triumvirate for a while.
Speaking of HBO - have you watched Going Clear, Nat??

That Cumberbatch sculpture is almost enough to make me regret the bowl of chocolate ice cream I'm eating right now...almost. Chocolate is still chocolate.
Wow. Crumplepants' sculpture is even worse than the Lionel Ritchie "Hello" one.
Really enjoyed Togetherness. Those last few minutes of the finale left me breathless.
Really liked Togetherness. Amanda Peet has never been better.
OMG, that buzzfeed article is just hilarious, and I've only seen like 5 minutes of Outlander (but they were the most important 5 minutes - hello, wedding night!).
RIP Manoel de Oliveira. His work is so hard to find, so I've only seen four or five of his features, but they are quiet, entrancing, haunting works all. I very much hope some of his earlier work will become available in the US some day.
That Chocobatch bust looks so sad. Like he realizes he is made of Cadbury and not Leonidas.
