Hey, it’s Georgia. Having movie nights with my family every Friday is something I really look forward to. It has really shown me what a tv screen can do. I find myself attaching to the characters and in awe of the cinematography choices. Movies can bring people into a new world and give the viewers the chance to connect through a story. A dream job of mine is to be a cinematographer, so looking at different themes and moods onscreen is very inspiring and brings me to a happy place. I enjoy many different genres such as comedy, mystery, musical, horror, and action movies. Some of my favorite movies/ tv shows are:
- Little Women (dir. Greta Gerwig)
- Knives Out (dir. Rian Johnson)
- Spiderman: Homecoming (dir. Jon Watts)
- Spiderman: Far From Home (dir. Jon Watts)
- Lady Bird (dir. Greta Gerwig)
- Lemonade Mouth (dir. Patricia Riggen)
- The Shining (dir. Stanley Kubrick)
- Queen’s Gambit (dir. Scott Frank)
- Hamilton (dir. Thomas Kail)

On my free time, books also provide a chance for me to detach from my life. I have to admit that I do prefer movies over books, but I still try to read as much as I can. This year I have found that I really enjoy mystery books, especially ones written by Agatha Christie. Mysteries keep me on edge waiting for something new to happen. I really enjoy trying to figure out who did it along with the characters. Some of my favorite books include:
- Little Women by Louisa May Alcott
- And Then There Were None by Agatha Christie
- Murder on the Orient Express by Agatha Christie
- To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee
- The House on Mango Street by Sandra Cisneros
- Every Falling Star by Sungju Lee
- Prisoner B- 3087 by Alan Gratz
- One of Us is Lying by Karen M. McManus
- Inside Out & Back Again by. Thanhha Lai
