[advisory: explicit language] just 1 nerd & i’m having a nerd time 👻 // song by charlie puth. ———— q: what are some books / series you nerd out the most over? ———— i’m currently v obsessed with my AOT colossal editions, heartstopper by @aliceoseman (basically all of alice oseman), cemetery boys by @aidenschmaiden, mooncakes by @artofwendyxu & @suzisaur, beach read by @emilyhenrywrites, my @a24 screenplay books, board games, and my vintage nancy drews. but tbh, everything in this video makes me really happy. ———— atm i have the equivalent of around 12 bookshelves in my apartment, which are mostly full. so, i pulled about 100 books from my collection to start a depop bookstore and to donate books to my local @lapubliclibrary when it reopens :))
“there are two kinds of people: regular people, and those raised by wolves. you came in here howling at the moon.” ✴︎ “we are torn apart by events. put back together differently by others. but somehow everything is beautiful.” — @lostgirlslovehotels. ——— i had the distinct pleasure of sitting down to speak with @catherinestockholm in re @lostgirlslovehotels last week, & received this beautiful film poster tie-in edition of the og novel from @harpercollins. i truly enjoyed our conversation all about writing for both page & screen, & all things #LostGirlsAndLoveHotels (icymi: you can watch it on my IGTV). ✴︎ alex daddario (baywatch, women who kill, true detective, percy jackson) plays Margaret, who is an english pronounciation teacher at air pro stewardess school in tokyo, japan; where she spends her nights getting drunk at jiro’s bar with her friends, incl. Ines played by the amazing carice van houten (lady melisandre from game of thrones). she *does not* have her sh1t together & is v much a lost soul antihero protagonist making her way through life, dealing with mental health in her own way (the book goes into more detail than the film, but her older brother frank is schizophrenic); until she meets the mysterious Kazu (takehiro hira), who is bound by duty to his family business in the shadows & a promised marital alliance fated in his future. ✴︎ i really loved & appreciated the care to detail that was taken to show a v authentically lived in portrayal of tokyo ex-pat life that is rare to see represented in American media. the themes of loneliness, solitude, wabisabi, fleeting perfection—all felt honest & vulnerable. there were so many beautiful moments of human connection & humor that really spoke to me. the ending hit me in the heart center, & alex daddario’s acting in that final sequence left me feeling v reminded of how angelina jolie’s acting in the final sequence of gia made me feel, & the performance sat with me for a few days before i could fully shake it off, in the best way. if you are looking for something moody to watch, or you just want more female antihero stories in your life like me, catch lost girls and love hotels on digital & on demand now ;))

aloha book nerds 🌟 this morning i had the amazing opportunity to interview Catherine Hanrahan (@catherinestockholm), the author and screenwriter of LOST GIRLS & LOVE HOTELS to talk about the film, adapting her own work, the book to film process, writing and more! —— “An intoxicating exploration of contemporary Tokyo’s duality, LOST GIRLS & LOVE HOTELS stars Alexandra Daddario (TV’s “True Detective”, San Andreas), Takehiro Hira (The Fighter Pilot, The Floating Castle) and Carice Van Houten (TV’s “Game of Thrones”, Valkyrie). Based on screenwriter Catherine Hanrahan’s book of the same name, and directed by William Olsson, the film is a provocative journey inviting you to get lost within the darkest corridors of Japan in hopes of experiencing fleeting moments of beauty. We follow the passionate tale of love and lust between a haunted American English teacher Margaret (Daddario) and a dashing Yakuza named Kazu (Takehiro Hira) as their affair tears them apart and reshapes them across Tokyo’s landscape of dive bars, alleyways and three-hour love hotels.” (source: youtube). —— #LostGirlsAndLoveHotels is available *now* on Digital and On Demand 🎬 —— find out more on @lostgirlslovehotels at https://lostgirlslovehotels.film/.
