and added it to my list. I didn't know then that it's a Taika Watiti film! Awesome. Have you seen Reservation Dogs on Hulu/FX? That's a Watiti project, too, and it's GREAT! Thanks for the trailer. Now I have something else to look forward to.

I watched the Frybread Face and Me preview on Netflix. Frybread with her Shamu questions sucked me in. "What's an annual pass?" It just made me laugh.

I didn't know it was a Taika Waititi film. Now I'm definitely going to watch it. Everything he does is great!
