    We also watched Glass Onion last night, and thought it took a little while to get going, but once it did we very much enjoyed it.
    I watched it last night also. Here is my review.

    Ha...fair review...but I did enjoy it all the same... started yesterday, finished today 


    As ever, I thank you for bringing films to my attention that I wouldn't otherwise watch. 

    Saw Ad Astra the other day due to your lists, too

    It’s definitely not Christmas Day viewing but it’s a brilliant film and would be a shame if you didn’t see it.

    I've no doubts at all it's a good film. I just can't cope with any kind of sadness at the moment.

    He lived in a village close by.
    His son has a band & they regularly sing this & many of his other tunes along with various other artists.
    Who knew as a teenager when I first heard this song that I’d end up at the same spot that gave him so much inspiration ♥️

    So sad hearing that amazing song now after his tragic end. Beautiful song.

    Watched Its A Wonderful Life and The Great Escape today.

    We've got Great Expectations early tommorow morning.

    Although maybe watching Mona Lisa and The White Ribbon would be more in keeping with the Christmas spirit.

    1917 is a good film.

    Not a truly great film though, largely because the plot is full of holes, but it's well shot.

    Watched Glass Onion last night. Not bad, and good to see some sea and sunshine. A strange film, though. Mrs Idle nodded off after an hour but it kept me entertained well enough.
