Talkie Tuesday: Mary

 

"Love will cost you dearly. It will pierce your heart.

But in the end, love will save the world."

 

Hello everyone!

 

Something a little different from me to you tonight.

 

I don't usually watch or consider movies with any type of religious message, although granted I suppose Quo Vadis could definitely land on that list ... but I digress.

 

This one kind of fell into my lap completely by accident because I thought the trailer screenshot looked nice.

 

Then I watched the trailer and decided, hey, I could watch this.

 

This weekend was the time I decided I was actually going to watch, and I have to say I enjoyed it, as a casual viewer who only has the most basic knowledge of religious tenements, and who was never brought up religious. 

Without further ado, then, let's have a look at Netflix's version of Mary.

 

Talkie Tuesday: The Grinch

"You're a mean one, Mr. Grinch ..."

Hello everyone!

So alright, this isn't a movie you'd expect in February. 

And contrary to popular belief, I'm not really going to be watching Christmas movies now, either. This one is sort of an anomaly.

More or less.

I honestly wasn't even going to watch it this season, but I was bored out of my mind this Sunday afternoon, I'd already tried my hand with the new Robin Hood take (review forthcoming) and I was in need of some Cumberbatch pick-me-up.

I might have done better had I chosen Sherlock.

But alas, my choice for Sunday afternoon was not, in fact, the famous sleuth.

So without much more further ado, let's go see what's making everyone green.

The Grinch, of course.
