In the quiet, shadowed corners of their minds, Regan and Evan grapple with the weight of their own existence. For Regan, an artist whose soul is entwined with the melancholy of his creations, every brushstroke is a reflection of his fragmented self. For Evan, haunted by the ghosts of a past he cannot escape, life is a series of days spent drifting between the overwhelming urge to disappear and the desperate need to be seen. Bound by a friendship that is as fragile as it is profound, they navigate the blurred lines between despair and hope, art and life, and the person they are versus the person they want to be. As Regan's art exhibition looms, both men must confront their deepest fears and insecurities, discovering in each other the reflections of their own miseryand the faintest glimmers of redemption. The Art of Being Miserable is a poetic and introspective exploration of loneliness, mental health, and the complexity of human connection.

Mrs Dalloway, Virginia Woolf's fourth novel, offers the reader an impression of a single June day in London in 1923. Clarissa Dalloway, the wife of a Conservative member of parliament, is preparing to give an evening party, while the shell-shocked Septimus Warren Smith hears the birds in Regent's Park chattering in Greek. There seems to be nothing, except perhaps London, to link Clarissa and Septimus. She is middle-aged and prosperous, with a sheltered happy life behind her; Smith is young, poor, and driven to hatred of himself and the whole human race. Yet both share a terror of existence, and sense the pull of death. The world of Mrs Dalloway is evoked in Woolf's famous stream of consciousness style, in a lyrical and haunting language which has made this, from its publication in 1925, one of her most popular novels.

Now an original movie on Prime Video starring Anne Hathaway and Nicholas Galitzine! When Solène Marchand, the thirty-nine-year-old owner of a prestigious art gallery in Los Angeles, takes her daughter, Isabelle, to meet her favorite boy band, she does so reluctantly and at her ex-husband’s request. The last thing she expects is to make a connection with one of the members of the world-famous August Moon. But Hayes Campbell is clever, winning, confident, and posh, and the attraction is immediate. That he is all of twenty years old further complicates things. What begins as a series of clandestine trysts quickly evolves into a passionate relationship. It is a journey that spans continents as Solène and Hayes navigate each other’s disparate worlds: from stadium tours to international art fairs to secluded hideaways in Paris and Miami. And for Solène, it is as much a reclaiming of self, as it is a rediscovery of happiness and love. When their romance becomes a viral sensation, and both she and her daughter become the target of rabid fans and an insatiable media, Solène must face how her new status has impacted not only her life, but the lives of those closest to her.
