Thanks for the tag. I am going to sit this one out because I have no interest in the movie but I hope you all have a great time. 😊

I mean, it's an annual watch in our house, so I'm watching regardless, but I may not talk to myself too much. Lol.

Of course, the background of this story hits a little close to home during the pandemic.

Hugo Weaving is such an amazing actor. He does not get near enough credit for his range of talent.

It's an annual watch for us too. We watched last night since I knew it'd be dinner time and this isn't the kind of movie you can watch with young kids around.

I'm missing it tonight, but I rewatched it towards the beginning of the pandemic and wow some of the parallels were frightening! For sure. I think I feel a little better about having Biden in charge now as opposed to where we were last year.

So interesting (and sad? scary?) that what was originally written as a reaction to Margaret Thatcher is still so apropos today. Even so. Lots of Vs. And yes. Similar to Orwell's 1984. Just shows that we haven't really improved as a society since then.

I really feel for the inspector. He doesn't exactly agree with everything, but he's trying to do his job.

Deitrich knew it was his last show. I can't believe all those in the studio let him do it.
