  The Many Saints of Newark 2021

  ★★★½ Watched 02 Oct 2021

  Honors the spirit of The Sopranos along with tossing in some fan service moments. Added half a star for the Italian slang I love so much. Lost a full star for lack of Gabagool.

   Things I loved:

  Dickie’s arc is the same as Tony’s. 

  The young Sil is basically a bad SNL impression. And it works for me as a delightful gag.

  Corey Stoll nails Junior. 

  Making Olivia so much like Carmela is such a great touch. Vera Farmiga is great in this.

  Hereditary 2018

  ★★★★½ Watched 18 Oct 2020

  Toni Collette is lights out in this shit. An absolute master class in acting.
