  • "West Side Story meets Shawn of the Dead meets the musical episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer" - Anna & The Apocalypse

    This week we are talking about the film Anna & The Apocalypse, a zombie, Christmas, musical set in a British high school. It sounds like a lot, we know, but its totally worth a watch! We have a whole episode to just prove it ;) This film also fulfills the requirements to be a part of our Christmas Movie Challenge, so consider this Day 9 and instead of a post about why, check out our episode!

  • "here lies Anne, who suffered tremendous loss but handled it quite impressively" - Persuasion (2021) dir. Carrie Cracknell

    Its that time of year to be depressed along with our favorite Jane Austen protagonists! We talk about the movie Persuasion (2021) on Netflix, the differences between adaptations, "based on", and "inspired by", when it comes to movies and their relation to retold stories, and the idea of "colorblind" casting! Don't forget to leave us a review and subscribe :)
