What Remains (2022)
Beautiful and complicated
What a beautiful contemplative movie with all the family complexities we all face. I usually go for action movies so I had to get comfortable with the quiet moments. The tremendous complexities evident in this film are so thoughtfully done. I need to see it again because I know there are many deep, probing messages this film offers.
The death of a loved one, when anticipated due to illness or through an unexpected tragedy as in this film, is always hard to bare. Watching everyone involved make the choices they made left much food for thought. The son's anger drove him to make an unspeakable decision but I would not have expected the father to respond the way he did. Talk about an en expected twist!
Blue Bloods: Triumph Over Trauma (2020)
Still love this show!!
I've anticipated the premiere for months and was not disappointed. I loved it! We always see Danny and his partner rescuing others/solving the case. It was powerful to watch them deal with being in trouble. The interaction was quite interesting and her ending up at Sunday dinner left me wondering... I love the appearance/ involvement of Joe but wondered about his "I'm busy" response when Jamie invited him to Sunday dinner. I noticed him watching Danny and Jamie when they found them in the basement... I wonder what he was thinking. Whoppi's character is interesting and presents a sentiment that I believe many communities of color have felt toward the police. I admire the writers for going there. I was a little surprised that I did not see people wearing masks and that the pandemic was not incorporated into the new season. This episode felt a little different and I loved it all!!
Avengers: Infinity War (2018)
Too much going on
Maybe my failure to follow MCU movies from the beginning is the reason why but I felt that there were way too many stories happening in this movie (they almost felt random) and they didn't make sense / didn't work for me. My husband actually fell asleep early on in the movie.
