It was a pretty good flickInteresting. The previews made the movie look like a joke.

Previews tend to focus on the wrong things. It’s a good movie. Not amazing, but goodInteresting. The previews made the movie look like a joke.
We watched it again Christmas Eve. It’s an embellishment of the real events that occurred up and down the front on that Christmas Eve during WWi. Probably the stupidest war of all time. Diane Kruger is beautiful beyond words. Quite good.Joyeux Noel (2005) - Pretty good movie about two opposing forces during World War I trench battles. On Christmas Eve they call a truce and end up socializing with each other over a few days. When the leadership finds out, the leaders and their men get reassigned to other theatres.
Worth a watch.
Is it truly the origin story? The Roald Dahl book has some pretty unflattering pieces of Wonkas origin. Like the Oompa Loompas were not orange. They were originally African pygmies he lured to work in his factory paying them in chocolate.Wonka. Stars Timothee Chalamet with a notable appearance by Hugh Grant. This is the origin story of Willy Wonka. If you love the ordinal Gene Wilder version you’ll enjoy this. Chalamet is quite good, with a little dancing and he sings a few songs. Wonka sets out to make it in the very competitive chocolate world. He end up swindled and in a work house, with some interesting characters including a young girl. With brilliance, persistence and a little Wonka magic he presents a threat to Slugworth and the chocolate establishment. It’s fun and leaves you smiling. Very good looking film too. They brilliantly work in Pure Imagination near the end.

My biggest take away from this was "who is Melissanthi Mahut and why have I never heard of her before?" I kept thinking she reminded me of someone else, but it took me a minute to figure it out. Asia Argento, Dario's daughter. Look at some pics, I think I got that one.Well I'll keep using this til the new thread is up. Netflix gave me 3 free months of streaming. It's about to run out. I'll probably cancel my subscription, there's just about nothing new coming out in January that looks interesting. So just trying to squeeze a little bit more out of it, decided what the heck I'll try Meg 2. Yeah, it was really dumb. Kinda entertaining I guess.
She seems to mostly be a voice actress. Has been in a lot of video games.My biggest take away from this was "who is Melissanthi Mahut and why have I never heard of her before?"

You can tell a real movie buff from a casual when they describe Asia Argento as "Dario's daughter", instead of the woman who triggered Anthony Bourdain's suicide.Asia Argento, Dario's daughter. Look at some pics, I think I got that one.
I looked her up on imdb. She was in that Netflix movie "Eurovision" with Will Ferrell. I started that, but didn't make it til the end. Probably didn't get far enough to see her in it.She seems to mostly be a voice actress. Has been in a lot of video games.
Whoa, I didn't even know about that.You can tell a real movie buff from a casual when they describe Asia Argento as "Dario's daughter", instead of the woman who triggered Anthony Bourdain's suicide.
