I wrote about
#HometownChaChaCha
’s moving love letter to the importance of community during a time in which most of us have been isolated from one another.
Humans beings reaching out to each other across the void IS the story.
What could be more timely during a pandemic?
Netflix’s
#HometownChaChaCha
is a timely & moving look at the transformational power of community.
In the midst of a pandemic, writer Shin Ha-eun’s simple & yet profoundly meaningful message is that “people should live among other people.”

Imagine how much Chris Pine and Anne Hathaway could raise if they auctioned off a 20 min zoom during which they pretend to be the quibbling but madly in love Queen & Prince Consort of Genovia.
Actors, writers and directors are collaborating on a charity auction with proceeds going towards helping crew members whose healthcare benefits are currently at risk during the strike.

Cool Disney. Thanks for not only canceling one of my kids’ favorite shows but erasing it so they can never watch it again.
The “vault” isn’t “buy the dvd or else” anymore. It’s “this story will only exist in your memory” because you don’t want to pay residuals?
