I just watched Stuart, A Life Backwards for the first time. I don't think I could ever get through reading the book; I barely made it through the movie. Talk about a kick to the gut. (
gryffin_draco's words but they are so accurate.)
That movie has depressed me so much, I really have to go watch something that makes me happy - idk, Doctor Who or BBC's Sherlock or even a lighter episode of Teen Wolf - to get out of this bad headspace I'm in. Or maybe I should read some cavity-inducing fic.
Either way, let me tell you: that movie is definitely not for the faint hearted. It is also Tom Hardy's best performance to date. Bravo to Tom Hardy. You made me cry, you bastard.
