Fanny and Alexander (1982)
Fanny and Alexander (1982)
1982 | Drama, International

"I did not like this film the first time I saw it. Granted, it was the theatrical version, but I don’t think that was the reason. At twenty, I wasn’t able to appreciate its patience, its gentleness, its humor. Though there is tragedy in the film, the overwhelming takeaway is that the time we have with the people we love is the most important thing we have."

Movie Favorite

"The tragedy of this movie strikes out of nowhere and yet remains completely inevitable, which is the best sort of storytelling. It captures how sex is dangerous in a visceral gut punch. Even though this is very much a period piece, the themes remain timelessly disturbing. And the haunting sound design of the clinking ice-covered branches stayed with me long after the film ended."

When a deathly tragedy happens, we often think only of those who died. But they aren’t the only victims. In Jane Davis’ newest novel “Smash all the Windows” she investigates the way the ripples of such an event increase the circle of victims. See what I thought of this book in my review, here. https://tcl-bookreviews.com/2018/04/14/shards-of-remaining-objects/

Much Ado About Nothing (1993)

Shakespeare fun
Writer/director/star Kenneth Branagh brings one of his several Shakespeare adaptations to the big screen with a very memorable cast including Denzel Washington, Emma Thompson, Michael Keaton and a very young Kate Beckinsale.

If you like old English you will love the comedy, mistaken identity with a little tragedy. This one is not too heavy and can be enjoyed by everyone.
