  Paddington in Peru 2024

  ★★★★½ Watched 14 Feb 2025

  Reports are in…the paddington magic is still alive and well!! Even without Paul King!

  That darling Dario Marianelli score, showcasing more of the immigrant experience, Antonio Banderas in drag, and Olivia Colman leaving no crumbs!! How could I be mad about that?! And there were even sweet homages to the kindest trilogy of all time. Yeah yeah we all miss sally hawkins, but plz don’t let that be the only thing everyone talks about. 

  Some major plot points certainly didn’t…

  Bottle Rocket 1996

  ★★★★ Watched 13 Jan 2023 2

  My first screening on 35mm, first New Beverly experience, annddd my final feature length Anderson film.
  I’m so excited to live 5 min from New Beverly and hope to take big advantage of that one. Never in my wildest dreams did I think a 2pm showing of Bottle Rocket would be sold out and full of an interactive audience (thx la) <3
