How so? What changed? I didn't even realise there was a distinct "new Bluey"
I am surprisingly concerned about how a cartoon dog will feel about moving...
Useful shopping this weekend for some winter clothes which needed replacing. 2 hoodies and a pair of track pants. Looking forward to coziness. Although it’s annoying that things just don’t last like they used to, quality is so much lower than it used to be.
Walk complete. Now football
Movie Review.
This is my 3rd movie about tv weather guys. Ground Hog Day, The Weatherman and today's movie, All Hail.
All Hail, from some of the team who brought you The Revenant and Bardo.
This movie has the same feel as Bardo. I admit I love this kind of cinematography/direction, it uses familiar ways to set the scene, it's feels up close and personal looking at actors without making you feel uncomfortable, it all feels natural and it's so easy to let the story happen. Every actor is perfectly cast. Every set and location is just right, every camera angle .
It makes everyday life and our world look so beautiful .
Seems to me this team loves to use the elements to tell a story, fire, ice, water, air, earth. There is always an interaction between people and the elements that is part of the story.
It's the story of a very well educated tv meteorologist who starts to believe the hype of his own forecasting record. It's about pride. Not as bad as Bill Murray who brought a curse down upon himself by saying "I make the weather". This guy, Miguel, brings a mild curse by saying "I guarantee it".
So he fails, is condemned and he must find redemption and grace by getting back in touch with real people and his family, not just users and stans, and getting back in touch with nature.
I had to look up who Professor Neurus was. 🤔
4.5 hobbits. So easy to watch, that's why I think watching twice would be a good idea.
