Somebody Somewhere (2022)
A beautiful portrait of family with well earned laughs
It's one of the more human shows I've seen. Very enjoyable family drama with well earned laughs. Worth watching though not especially flashy. All of its effort goes into how it makes you feel, a deep warmth around finding family. The acting was good enough I never noticed I was watching actors. Same with the cinematography and music. I was thoroughly pulled in 8.5/10.
The Nanny Diaries (2007)
Surprisingly substantive yet goes down easy like popcorn
I wanted to watch a hard hitting drama with political relevance that pushes me out of my comfort zone and inspires deeper thinking. My other half wanted to watch something light, funny, and charming with a happy ending and good chemistry between the leads.
We ended up watching watching this sweet show with Scarlet Johansson and Captain America from 2007.
I really didn't expect us to both get what we were looking for, but here we are.🤣😆😂 I This movie had a surprising amount of substance and a unique and well executed framing device. Maybe not ten out of ten, but definitely two thumbs up. 👍👍
