Hello, fellow movie lovers! I saw a lot of new movies in 2022. AS USUAL! Anyway, I figured I might go ahead and rank my favorites. And I’ll also provide a quick summary of the falling-in-love journey I went through with each one of them.

Petite Maman (CREDIT: NEON)
Starring: Joséphine Sanz, Gabrielle Sanz, Stéphane Varupenne, Nina Meurisse, Margo Abascal
Director: Céline Sciamma
Running Time: 72 Minutes
Rating: Unrated
Release Date: April 22, 2022 (Theaters)
I would love to have twins in my family. I guess it’s too late for me to have my own twin, but there’s still time for me to potentially be a father to twins. Maybe I’ll take a cue from Roger Federer and his wife and aim for two sets of twins!
Petite Maman doesn’t feature any twins among its characters, but its cast does feature a central twin pair. And while little Joséphine and Gabrielle Sanz aren’t playing sisters, they sure couldn’t hide their sisterly energy. Nor should they have! What a lovely fairy tale.
Grade: 2 out of 2 Twins Playing Non-Twins
