Movie Monday - 12/18/2023

The holiday preparations have reached defcon status around here. I know there’s always something, but something has put my sewing behind. In the meantime, I’m trying not to engage in too much self soothing, because that only put me further behind.

I did watch one movie last week because I really needed a diversion.

In Book Club: The Next Chapter, Candice Bergen, Diane Keaton, Jane Fonda and Mary Steenburgen reprise their roles as longtime friends. One of them is now engaged and they all decide to go to Italy for her bachelorette. It was cute.

Good streamers:

Annika Season 2 - PBS Passport

Virgin River Season 5 Part 2 - Netflix

Fisk Season 2 - Netflix

Movie Monday - 12/11/2023

I’m hoping everyone is enjoying the month. It’s a busy one, but it doesn’t have to be. Remember that. Take time to take care of yourself. Maybe, watch a movie or two - like I did last week.

Annette Bening stars in Nyad, a biographical film about Diana Nyad. In her sixties, she swam from Cuba to Florida without a shark cage. Jodie Foster also stars. 

In May December, an actress researches the taboo relationship of a couple. Twenty years prior, the woman had a sexual relationship with the man while he was still a minor. The film is loosely based on the life of Mary Kay Letourneau.  Julianne Moore, Natalie Portman and Charles Melton star.
