authentic reviews and insightful interviews for inquisitive readers
There’s one part of the TFA movie that makes me cringe every time–when Ren throws Rey into a tree in the forest on Starkiller Base. A branch cracks sharply on impact, and every time I imagine it’s her spine. It horrifies me–probably supposed to.
