I love Clueless. (It's the best film adaptation of Austen's Emma IMO), but I'm picking Breakfast Club because I want to hang out with that weird girl Ally Sheedy played lol. #FamilyMovieFridays

Those are excellent films. I also love 2 Days in Paris (Delpy), I've Heard the Mermaids Singing (Rozezma), Vagabond (Varda), Happiness (Varda), Jeanne Dielman (Akerman), Lost in Translation (Coppola), and Daughters of the Dust (Dash). #FilmTwitter #FemaleDirectors

Frances McDormand, Julianne Moore, Cate Blanchett, Holly Hunter, Laura Linney, Tilda Swinton, and Katharine Hepburn have all inspired me with their brilliant acting. My favorite actress is Kate Winslet due to her immense talent and body positivity advocacy. #FamilyMovieFridays

I was going to say The Bride from Kill Bill, but I'll go the family-friendly route and pick an anthropomorphic bunny lol. Judy Hopps from #Zootopia is goal-oriented and uses setbacks as challenges to improve. I also love how she grows from her mistakes. #FamilyMovieFridays

My favorite director is Patricia Rozema. I studied her work quite extensively in grad school. Her 1999 film Mansfield Park is my favorite Austen adaptation. I also strongly relate to the protagonist Polly in Rozema's I've Heard the Mermaids Singing. #FamilyMovieFridays

My mom is one of the strongest people I know in so many ways. She has always encouraged me to be happy with my authentic self and never care what others think of me. #FamilyMovieFridays #Moms #InspiringWomen

I absolutely adored #TurningRed. The girls in the film are some of the most relatable adolescent female characters I've ever seen on screen. I love the film's message as well. We should all embrace rather than ignore those messy and weird sides to ourselves.

She has more than deserved an Emmy nomination for years now. Her performance as Kim Wexler has become one of my favorites of all time.

Sometimes we focus so much on how our bodies look and feel as our measure for health. Physical health is only one aspect of overall wellness. Don’t forget the importance of caring for your minds. #health #mentalhealth #mentalhealthawareness #joytrain #depression

Agreed! I was on the edge of my seat and glued to the screen the entire time. It's one of the most riveting episodes of television I've ever seen.
