  1. This is an odd time to be posting about Christmas films, but that's what I am doing. Four films, one or two of them merely set over Christmas and New Year, the others more explicitly about the holidays.

  2. Tonight, I was asked to suggest a #film again. After the wonderful #TheHoldovers and the rather brutal #TheThicket, I'm thinking either #BlackBag or #BloodAndSinners / #Sinners? I'd actually like to suggest a German film, but I want to avoid stupidly clever arthouse junk. #filmsky #movies

  7. #Movies #Magic . . .

    Just saw #NowYouSeeMe3 (NYSM3) at my local #AMC today.

    It was a decent sequel which added a few new characters to the cast & got rid of 1 in the process.

    One of the new characters had a bit part in #JurrasicParkFallenKingdom (2018) & the other co-starred with #PauGiamatti in #TheHoldovers (2023).

    #RosamundPike plays the "bad guy" & adopts a very convincing South African accent in her role.

    The concluding "trick" in NYSM3 is performed in the same vain as those that were executed in NYSM 1& 2 & were revealed similarly as well.

    There were several weak points but it was entertaining enough to rate a 6 out of 10, which means it's good enough to see at the theater.

    And the way it ended left it open for a NYSM4

    In 1970, a curmudgeonly history teacher at a New England boarding school remains on campus during Christmas break to supervise held over students, and ends up forming an unlikely bond with a brainy but damaged troublemaker.

  13. I watched "The Holdovers" a few nights ago. It'll be for sure a movie I watch every Christmas.

    Some great quotes.

    Elise: Are you trying to look down my shirt?
    Angus Tully: [laughing nervously] Noooo... .. yes.

  14. En la sección películas del fin de semana, les traigo «The Holdovers», la mejor película navideña que he visto el último tiempo. Una mezcla perfecta entre emotividad y humor. Cercana a la perfección.

  15. Wir könnten ja generell anfangen, mehr positive Dinge zu posten? Ich mag ja die „3 schöne Dinge“-Posts von Mme @flyingsilk. (Frohes Neues, dir, dem Mann und dem Kater!)

    #3schoeneDinge der gestrigen Nacht:

    Sehr leckere Donuts mit ordentlich Füllung und passenden Namen wie „Raspberry Bomb“.

    Ein Rewatch von #TheHoldovers.

    Paralleles Feuerwerk im Fernsehen und vor dem Fenster, und keine Kugelbombe in meinem Kiez!

    (Ich übe noch.)

  16. Also wieso der #Film #theholdovers von der Kritik so gelobt wird, kann ich nicht nachvollziehen. Klar, Giamatti spielt das gekonnt runter. Das restliche Ensemble ist auch sehr gut. Aber die Story fängt mich kaum. Zu dünn, zu vorhersehbar. Kurz: Langweilig.

  17. Just watched #TheHoldovers, part of which was filmed in #SomervilleMA.

    So many routes to damaged people. Alas.

    This trivia bit just about destroyed me though.

  18. "Canmore" = "Big Head"‽ It's a tailor-made Mel Brooks' line! 😆🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

    "Malcolm III was indeed known as "Canmore" from the Gaelic for "big head" or "big chief"
