Ricardo Harvin<p>Well acted, beautifully shot, and interestingly staged, Wildcat and its story of the writing life of Flannery O'Connor, combined with depictions of her short stories, is a contemplative work that covers the nature and complexity of creativity, devout religious faith, and the intertwining of both with writing truth, and truthfully.</p><p>When she fell, it triggered a visceral response reminding me of my ongoing, physical struggle.</p><p><a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Wildcat" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Wildcat</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/FlanneryOConnor" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FlanneryOConnor</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/MayaHawke" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MayaHawke</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/EthanHawke" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>EthanHawke</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/LauraLinney" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LauraLinney</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Lupus" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Lupus</span></a></p>
