By Force of Habit

About This Movie

So, 'By Force of Habit' is an interesting one, you know? It dives into this group’s self-imposed challenge of building a reading habit over five weeks. No flashy editing or gimmicky camera work—just a raw, almost intimate look at their struggles and small victories. The pacing’s pretty laid-back, allowing you to really connect with the participants and their journeys. It touches on themes like discipline and the psychology of habit formation, which is kind of fascinating. Honestly, it feels very relatable. It's not just about reading but about commitment and how we often fail to stick with things. The quiet moments in between their discussions add to the reflective atmosphere, making it distinct in the documentary landscape.
