Streaming options can complicate the decision-making process regarding what to watch. David Sims suggests maintaining a movie-viewing project to combat decision paralysis, such as exploring a director's filmography or a particular cinema genre. The newsletter provides a range of suggestions, including movie franchises, series, and individual films, to help audiences find suitable content that aligns with their mood and interests. Readers are also encouraged to share what inspires their sense of awe, contributing to the conversation on personal experiences.
"As a way to avoid decision paralysis, I always have at least one movie-viewing project going, a way to check boxes and spur myself toward new things to explore-be it running through an influential director's filmography, checking out the cinema of a particular country or era, or going one by one through a long-running series."
"The novel that inspired the film Jaws was decidedly populist. The movie took a different turn."
"Spend some time with a good movie-or two, or three."
"I find air travel deeply vexing and stressful, but I have never lost my sense of awe about flying, and the beauty of our planet."
