Don’t really feel that Chalamet nails the role. But he rises to the occasion for the songs, which because Neil Hannon wrote them are pretty good. Cool to see the Horrible Histories / Ghosts guys hit the big time.

Brilliant performances all around. I love Mike Leigh and all his actors.

A Case of Spring Fever 1940
You wear one MST3K novelty tee to bed, and suddenly your kids start asking questions, and then one thing leads to another, and there you are, queueing up a prewar industrial short film (jokes and robots not included) on youtube for the second time in a row.
Much has already been said about how loopy this is. The second half is actually mildly funny, in an “I didn’t know they’d invented commercials with self-aware humor before the ‘90s” way.
The five-year-old just asked for a third viewing. The four-year-old vetoed. No springs, indeed.

Jacob's Ladder 1990
Heavier than I expected. Very strong work by Tim Robbins. Did this movie invent the sped-up-head-shake visual that ended up in half of all ‘90s music videos (“twisted” genre)?
