Speaking of loneliness and how acutely painful it is, I think that’s why this moment in TLJ resonates so strongly — two lonely people finding each other and, for the briefest of moments, feeling rare, forgotten warmth. For the first time since childhood, they experience a true connection to another human being and they aren’t alone anymore.

It’s so simple but impactful. I had to paint it.

in my experience if you're learning a language but you're worried about not pronouncing it right or sounding ridiculous in front of native speakers, I'm here to tell you that most people do not care. they don't care if you have an accent or if your mother tongue is peeking through, because in all honesty, everyone has an accent. it's unfair and frankly unrealistic to expect people to bear no remnants of their native tongue when speaking another. you've spent your entire life speaking your language, interacting with the world in it; your understanding of language is built on your native one and its natural sounds. no one can expect you to entirely shift how your brain processes words and sounds. most native speakers will just appreciate you trying at all. if it's comprehensible, if the gist of what you're saying gets across, then it's good enough. if you're trying, your accent is fine.

everyone saying "but the french-!" you're absolutely correct. this is a general statement to which french is the exception
