Welcome to Looking Closer, headquarters for all things Overstreet. Let's consider and discuss movies, music, literature, culture, faith, and Jeffrey's books.

2) I reserve the right to approve or delete any comments in order to keep matters on-topic and respectful.
3) Please: 300 words or less. No manifestos. No essays.

You'll notice the letter grades. They're not a judgment of the film. They're a personal note, a tenuous measurement of my enthusiasm for the film after that particular viewing. They do not concern whether or not I'd recommend the film; I'd recommend different films to different people. Nor are they an assessment of its artistry. I explain my reservations about star-systems and grade-scales in this rant at Filmwell.
