"Moonshadow" showed viewers a flip side — a human side, an unpretty side — to Jack (Milo Ventimiglia), who was wallowing in an alcohol-fueled spiral: He bloodied up Rebecca's bandmate/ex-boyfriend Ben (Sam Trammell) before her big gig, which Rebecca decided to cancel, especially after Ben had misread the situation and tried to kiss her moments before Jack arrived.
The appeal is twofold: it's infinitely more enjoyable than yet another extortionately priced dive bar where the music is too loud to chat over and too awful to dance to, and it allows me to indulge in what has become my favorite pastime since moving away from my family and entering my late 20s: wallowing in nostalgia.
Watching the Steve's films, it made me reflect on how much resentment I've let seep into my own life, how often I've held a friend's success against them, how often I've wasted days wallowing in self-pity because I didn't get something that I thought I deserved because of how good and smart I am and how stupid I thought the world is for not recognizing that.
