Movie Monday - 6/26/2023

It’s officially summer!!! I’m looking forward to a relaxing week. I finished a big paperwork project and am taking a little break. 


In the documentary Hotel Coolgardie, two Finnish girls who were backpacking in Bali got robbed. They made it to Australia to find work and save money to go home. They were hired by a bar in the western Australian mining town of Coolgardie. I was appalled at the sexual harassment from the patrons and the boss/manager who started verbally abusing them from their very first shifts. He expected them to be instant experts at bartending. The regulars were insulted because they wouldn’t play along with the abuse. It was interesting.

Spoiler Alert is based on the memoir Spoiler Alert: The Hero Dies by Michael Ausiello. Jim Parsons stars as Michael and Ben Aldridge stars as Kit. The film tells the love story of the two men and Kit’s death from a rare form of cancer. Sally Field and Bob Irwin also star. It was very good.
