Viewing Notes

I was maybe a little too tired to watch this on Sunday night, so I should revisit it again, but overall I liked it. As a person who’s not very keen on interacting with strangers who come to my door uninvited, I could really empathize with the protagonist, though she’s a lot more paranoid than I am.
