info and tickets in bio
watched more than the previous year, but still just shy of 365 in 2025. so many great theater experiences, i highlighted some favorite first-time watches on each slide.
go support your local cinemas (like @thetaraatlanta & @plazaatlanta ), video stores (like @videodrome_atl ) and gather often with friends to share incredible (and sometimes sloppy) stories.
any recent favorites? first-time watches? or films i should i add to my 2026 watchlist?
this year was not easy, but then again, what year is.
thankful for the friends that make it enjoyable. some of which are not pictured here because i don’t take my digi everywhere.

the next Reel Talk will be Tuesday, August 12th @ 8PM at The Tara Theatre. tickets available now.
Possibly the most excited I’ve been for a @reelfriendsmovies event. Join us @thetaraatlanta on Monday, April 7th at 8 PM for a showcase of five Atlanta short films, followed by live director commentaries and a mixer in the lobby— aptly titled ‘Reel Talk’.
A music video I directed will play alongside these great projects by some of my favorite (and more talented) filmmakers:
When We Were Kids (dir. this guy 🕺)
Beautyosity (dir. @zachsolberg0292 )
Two Ships (dir. @mcknley@kenzielizbenson )
Vague Recollections of Being Previously Human (dir. @costakaralis )
I Could Dom (dir. @madhat31 )
Tickets linked in bio. Please come out. I want to do more of these.
