I made it to the theater again last week.
In Small Things Like These, there’s a convent in a small Irish town that is harboring secrets. A man finds a girl locked in the coal room when he comes to deliver coal to the convent, but the nuns brush off the incident. The more he observes around him, the more uneasy he becomes. Memories of his past begin to haunt him as well. Google Magdalene Laundries and you will have the historical context. Cillian Murphy, Emily Watson and Eileen Walsh star in this well-acted film. I liked it.
I had never seen Beetlejuice, and it’s old, Y’all. I noticed it was playing on one of the movie channels. I watched it because I wanted to see the sequel that is out now. A couple who has recently died haunt the new owners of their house in order to make them leave. Gina Davis, Alex Baldwin, Catherine O’Hara, Winona Rider and Michael Keaton (plus more) star. It was mostly corny, but also pretty funny in spots.
That’s it for the past week.
MK out.
