SHAKE IT OUT.

COBWEB (2023) dir. Samuel Bodin

" this poor girl wrote me a letter about how she moved for college in one direction and her two friends, moved somewhere else together. now she's upset because she essentially got ghosted by her high school friends and that she keeps trying to figure out why and what happened. how would you politely tell her, baby girl, pick up your dignity and go ? " she'd been staring at the blank page for over an hour and the most she's written down was ' get over it . '

as the young brunette spoke, corrine tried her hardest to stifle a laugh. ah, college girl MELODRAMA… that really took her back. although, she’d never had such an experience of her own, there were bigger problems in her life than sulking over something so benign. “seriously?” the blonde questioned, disbelief mixed with amusement evident in her voice. “does it make me a bitch to say she needs to get a fucking grip?” chuckling, she shrugged. “perhaps you could gently point out that the distance doesn’t necessarily mean they don’t want to be her friend, people choose colleges based on their INTERESTS and needs. or at least that’s what i did.” idly tapping her her fingers against the table, she closed her laptop, unbothered to continue to work on the script that’s be sitting barely touched in front of her all morning. “surely they didn’t actually ghost her but if they did, obviously she’s the problem.” a soft laugh. “honestly, i don’t know how you do it. you must have the patience of a saint.”
