cocoon

“I don’t evolve, I cocoon,” Wednesday says of herself at one point.

Look, I think that when you’re getting yourself out of a hole, you’re doing a bit of that healing in a cocoon, around your friends and alone in your house and with your family.

Princess, a senior Chihuahua, rests with her eyes closed and body curled into a tight cocoon, as a frenetic hamster named Ponby stands upright, his eyes bulging.

Many Criterion junkies have imagined what it would be like to hang out in that closet — to be enveloped in that cozy cocoon of great movies.

They are either having a very good time — with much laughter and banter, and perhaps a tear or two when a butterfly emerges from the cocoon — or else they are excellent actors.
