Good morning! Have you been seeing a lot of movies lately? Me too. Let’s talk about it.
There’s been a notable rise of Gen Z cinephiles. My colleague found that our generation has been flocking to theaters to see indies, classics and blockbusters. Social isolation and social media may have something to do with it.
Recently, I’ve seen “Primetime,” “You Can See Everything” and “Club Kid.” “La Bola Negra” and “The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping” are next on my list.
What movies are you excited about? Email me.

Talking points
What to discuss in class today.
6. Rescue efforts in the Brooklyn building collapse have ended. At least eight people died in the sudden collapse, which turned a busy neighborhood into a disaster zone.
Side hustle
Here’s what Cat Amy, 21, a communication studies major at the University of Georgia, does outside class.
What’s your side hustle? I help build and paint sets for my university theater, as well as helping to make or source props.
Pay: $11 an hour.
Hours per week: Currently four, but I’ve worked up to eight.
How’d you get the gig? I volunteered to work on a university musical during my freshman year, and our technical director asked if I’d like to work in the scene shop for pay.
Why do you like it? It fulfills my creative impulses and has taught me a lot about carpentry, art and production. However, I have to dress to anticipate sawdust, paint and manual labor. Bye bye, cute class outfits 🙁

Bake a sweet treat. I know I can’t stop talking about Thanksgiving, but I can’t help it. I’m planning to make a corn pudding, and I may try to make a dessert this year. These are the best ones.
