#lettherightonein — Public Fediverse posts

Live and recent posts from across the Fediverse tagged #lettherightonein, aggregated by home.social.

  1. I finally watched #LetMeIn and the reviews I read are right: It's a very good #Hollywood #remake of the original #Swedish, #LetTheRightOneIn (#LåtDenRätteKommaIn); maybe the best such #movie I've seen.

    It sticks to the story and looks great. I especially love the lighting of the railroad, bridge (b/w!), and pool shot (you'll know them when you see them).

    I liked the treatment of the parents, especially mom, but the religiosity added nothing.

    It's still a #LoveStory. In a way.

  2. With the announced merger of Paramount+ and #Showtime, the cable channel has pulled a number of short-lived and under-performing series from its platform including #AmericanGigolo, #LetTheRightOneIn, #Kidding, the first season of anthology #SuperPumped, #OnBecomingAGodInCentralFlorida and #AmericanRust. Super Pumped was renewed for a second season but its fate now is unknown. American Rust was picked up for a second season by #Amazon's #Freevee. #television #streaming

  3. In a surprise announcement, #ParamountGlobal has revealed the #Showtime will no longer be a stand-alone entity with a rebrand as Paramount+ with Showtime, combining the two brands (in the US only, for now). This has also led to the cancellation of #LetTheRightOneIn and #AmericanGigolo, plus the dumping of #ThreeWomen, with #ShaileneWoodley & #BettyGilpin, which has completed production but has not yet been broadcast. but will be shopped. #television #streaming

    It's currently on #CriterionChannel along with #LetTheRightOneIn and many other vampire flicks like #TheHunger, the #LesVampires silents, #Dracula 1931, #Nosferatu and #NosferatuTheVampyre, #NearDark, #IrmaVep 1996 and several more.

    Many of these are leaving the service December 31 though.

  6. Is there a third film I can add to the unofficial modern female in love series, along with (young love), and (young adult love)?

    They're both well done and subversive, and I highly recommend them even though I don't like bloody, violent movies in general.

    These are stories about real and acceptance; more so than just about any , ever (I don't know if holds up, especially after how flawed seems now).
