Don't watch this is you have a daughter!

Really enjoyable film although a little slow at the start. It's definitely not an action packed take on the genre but that adds to its charm. Some cracking performances given and an interesting commentary on the world's political stance which was unexpected.

Kudos

Mary and Joseph deal with the fallout of getting married despite the fact that Mary is pregnant. However, with the political forces in play, what danger might they face. This was a slow moving book. The fictional characters were interesting, but it wasn't enough to save the book.

The Podding Shed

Absolutely brilliant, funny and insightful, the podding shed headed up by the awesome Tony, a regular on the best Chelsea podcast the Chelsea Fancast, The Podding Shed is a deep dive into Chelsea's games and seasons. The intelligence and insight is exceptional and they aren't afraid to get political. Brilliant, only let down by not podding enough

Movie Rating

Remains one of my favorite movies in any genre.
No, I didn't watch the ridiculous TV reboot or the short-lived Broadway show, nor will I. The original holds up just fine with its commentary on society and political correctness. Christian Slater does some of his best work, and Winona Ryder can do no wrong. Plus, baby Shannen Doherty! (she's just 17 here!)

An absolute classic in my book.
