Now (or Recently)
The "now page" concept comes from an idea by Derek Sivers to have people communicate what they're focused on now at this point in their lives.

Movies
Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy • 2011 • Tomas Alfredson • They don’t make many movies like this anymore. Both intelligently written and yet not overly- wrought with twists and surprises, it’s a subtly played movie staring Gary Oldman at his best, but with a stellar cast in general. Highly recommended. • Loved It!
Wick Is Pain • 2025 • Jeffrey Doe • A fun look behind the scenes and lives of the people who made the John Wick movies. Really only these people could have made these movies. • Loved It!
