Watched Darkest Hour (2017) by an author from letterboxd.com
A thrilling and inspiring true story begins on the eve of World War II as, within days of becoming Prime Minister of Great Britain, Winston Churchill must face one of his most turbulent and defining trials: exploring a negotiated peace treaty with Nazi Germany, or standing firm to fight for the ideals, liberty and freedom of a nation. As the unstoppable Nazi forces roll across Western Europe and the threat of invasion is imminent, and with an unprepared public, a skeptical King, and his own party plotting against him, Churchill must withstand his darkest hour, rally a nation, and attempt to change the course of world history.

A fairly boring but well made film about politics

★★★

My review

I serously doubt there are many people in the world that this will even make sense to… but the continuing saga of the NHS BMI widget is quite something. It’s not even as if BMI is a decent measure of ANYTHING.

Watched Dressed to Kill (1980) by an author from letterboxd.com
A mysterious, tall, blonde woman wearing sunglasses murders one of a psychiatrist's patients, and now she's after the prostitute who witnessed it.

For De Palma the director, this is probably a 4 or 5 star film. The visuals are superb and the performances are spot on. Very New York, too.

For De Palma the writer, this is some sleazy, voyeuristic, exploitation shit, that I find very weird.

★★★½

Watched Freaky (2020) by an author from letterboxd.com
A mystical, ancient dagger causes a notorious serial killer to magically switch bodies with a 17-year-old girl.

Based strictly on how much I went “ewww” and laughed out loud, this must be one of the best horror comedies I have seen.

★★★

Watched Interceptor (2022) by an author from letterboxd.com
A U.S. Army Captain uses her years of tactical training to save humanity from sixteen nuclear missiles launched at the U.S. as a violent attack threatens her remote missile interceptor station.

A three star film with a two star budget; everything wrong with this, from the skeleton rig crew to the supporting cast, could be fixed with more money.

Elsa is ace. I wish I had guns like that 💪
