the real lieutenants exam is what happens to you while you’re busy trying to revise for the lieutenants exam!!

only recently found out that pellew was a real historical man because i saw his painting in a museum and turned to my partner and said “captain dad???” 

i should’ve known it would mean a rewatch soon enough. i missed him* so much! 
*the specialest boy in the navy

a movie with so much cultural cache they decided to do it in real life

when it’s the cuban missile crisis so you have to cheat on your girlfriend with joan baez

they love to pair kieran culkin with a glamorous older woman

maybe 10 year old me was right and this is the best film in the world

Watched on Thursday April 3, 2025.

it’s main failing is that it isn’t Company (2008)

also i’m so sorry, adrian lester is an incredible shakespearean actor but his american accent sounded like kermit to me, especially when he sang

💖 glynis johns 💖

“And where’s your grandpa right now?”
“In the trunk of our car.” 

art

for my own sanity i’m glad “canon event” was the phrase that took off amongst teenagers and not “my holes can take me anywhere”

“jess i’m irish” scene you’ll always be famous

chiwetel ejiofor took his shirt off to reveal insanely chiselled abs and my 90 year grandma clapped in the middle of a packed cinema

when you have an accident at work that was your fault

everybody say thank you jane campion

not just heinous, but also bad. sometimes almost interesting but felt like it was written by ai. most egregious use of “lover, you should’ve come over” award. an extra half star for the half effective southern gothic vibe

this came on tv just as we were about to play the jane austen board game!!! it felt mandatory
