February 1996 - Mary Reilly & Muppet Treasure Island
February 1996 - Mary Reilly & Muppet Treasure Island
For the second month of 1996, we double dipped on two vastly different cinematic editions of classic British novels!
Julia Roberts plays a maid who finds herself in over her head at her new estate. The master of the house is none other than the infamous researcher Henry Jekyll (John Malkovich). When his experiments start invading their everyday life, the maid must decipher whether she wants to help the mad doctor or stop his reign of terror. It’s all a bit overwhelming for…Mary Reilly!
We also talked about a second film:
Orphan Jim Hawkins (Kevin Bishop) finds himself at sea when he embarks on an ill-fated expedition alongside some duplicitous privateers. Led by the slippery sea wolf Long John Silver (Tim Curry), the buccaneers are searching for some buried riches that only young Hawkins might be able to find. Luckily for him, Jim has some unique allies - The Muppets! That’s right, it’s another literary adaptation by Jim Henson’s lovable creations. This time they take on Robert Louis Stevenson’s 1883 novel and make it their own. Set sail with us for…Muppet Treasure Island!
