Saw "Hamnet" earlier.  Wow, was I a blubbering mess for much of the last hour.  The first half is pretty boring, but the back half was very good and wrenching.  Wonderful last 15-20 minutes.  I don't think it's good enough to win Oscars (other than probably Jessie Buckley who is terrific), but it would be a worthy Best Picture nominee.

I thought the preview was a SNL parody.

Any of y'all do Letterboxd? I've watched 114 movies so far this year (including rewatches).

 

Latest one being LEE (2023) (on Hulu). About the wartime Vogue photographer Lee Miller (played by Kate Winslet and her tits). Good performance from Winslet, and other strong actors in the cast with not much to do: Marion Cotillard, Aleksander Skaarsgard, Josh O'Connor. Oh, and Andy Samberg.

But the movie lacked any real tension or compelling drama. An interesting historical story, but pretty meh as a narrative film.

Several on Letterboxd here - I’m Wutang75 (298 logged this year - we watch a lot of movies and I have no life).
