Her singing was the highlight of Bad Times at the El Royale for me.
Missing the Hemsworth gene as I am, her singing was the absolute highlight.
Slap my hand now!

A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

I saw The Good Liar yesterday, and it was great seeing Ian McKellen and Helen Mirren playing off each other for most of a movie. Interesting plot too, but I wish there had been earlier hints of Mirren being up to something, as I'd like to have seen her character showcased a bit more throughout the film and some cat-and-mouse between the two, rather than a big gotcha! reveal near the end. Maybe make it seem like she was running an Arsenic and Old Lace sort of scheme doing in elderly bachelors, and then reveal the twist of her actual motive.

Little Women is getting rave reviews.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
There's a broadcast channel that runs older movies ... some good, some terrible. I recently caught one I love - Searching for Bobby Fisher - I'd forgotten how good it was. I can recommend it for good performances (Joe Mantegna, Joan Allen, Ben Kingsley, Lawrence Fishburn as a trash-talking chess hustler!) and a happy ending (which leaves me sniffly). Very sweet.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Bobby Fisher is one of my eternally favorite movies. Everyone in it, except perhaps for Allen, plays against type, and the whole film is good. Really good.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
That movie is the reason I follow Judit Polgar

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I adore that film.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
I went to see Knives Out again with a friend on Friday, and it was just as fun the second time around.
On a related topic, Hollywood Reporter has an interview with the costume designer for the film, with multiple paragraphs dedicated to that white sweater Chris Evans wears. Figured some folks here might be interested: [link]
Also, New Yorker has a splendid interview with Jamie Lee Curtis that is very much worth a read for her anecdotes about Bette Davis alone (Curtis lived in the same building and also did a movie with Davis). The rest of the interview is funny and frank and all around great, too: [link]

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Everyone's costumes in Knives Out were SO GOOD. I can't wait to see it again.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."
That costume article was great. And I do not blame Chris Evans for stealing the coat.
