We've already reviewed the two big movies of the week -- "Wicked" and "Gladiator II" -- so we turned to a couple of new movies streaming on Netflix on the latest episode of Breakfast All Day.
The first is "Spellbound," an animated, musical fairy tale starring Rachel Zegler as a teenage princess trying to save her parents, the king and queen, who've been turned into monsters. It's colorful and vibrant but unoriginal, and the songs from the legendary composer Alan Menken are just so-so. Nicole Kidman, Javier Bardem, John Lithgow and Nathan Lane are among the star-studded supporting cast.
A better choice on Netflix is "The Piano Lesson," based on the Pulitzer prize-winning August Wilson play. John David Washington, Danielle Deadwyler, Samuel L. Jackson, Corey Hawkins and Ray Fisher star in this story about an African-American family debating what to do with a piano that's an important heirloom.
And in our movie news livestream, we discussed the week's major releases, Sebastian Stan, Jussie Smollett, and our dear friend Amy Nicholson being named the LA Times' new film critic. So well deserved! We won't be going live the Friday after Thanksgiving, but check back with us at our YouTube channel at Noon Pacific time on Dec. 6.
Next week is our 500th episode, and we're excited to celebrate! Have a delicious and restful Thanksgiving, and we'll see you back here soon.
