Hello, My Name Is Doris

An indie shot for $1 Million in 3 weeks starring Sally Field as a 60-something woman who has just lost her mother after caring for her for decades. Watched it on HBONow. So good.

Lots of obscure independent films that make for pleasant, interesting distractions for these times.

Sally Fields still has the acting chops!

Saw her appear with Chelsea Clinton at Youngstown State University campaigning for Hillary. She spoke very eloquently and is so natural. Crowd loved her.

We saw it in the theater when it came out because "You love me!!!!".

Sally can always get my butt into a theater.

Kind of along the same lines in terms of awkwardness and 'older' relationships -

Our Souls at Night
5 Flights Up

Here's a B movie that is very silly and funny - Bad Grandmas
