  ★★★★ Watched 26 Feb 2022

  Artsy and deliberate and the music sets the mood.  It feels like a thriller, but it ends in such jubilance that I can’t help but love.

  Lady of the Manor 2021

  ★★ Watched 13 Jan 2022

  Extra star for Melanie Lynskey. To be clear, this movie is not good, but Melanie Lynskey and Judy Greer are delightful. It would have made a great sketch, 90 minutes is too much time to fill with the limited script. If you want a spot-on hilarious take on the “ghost lady of the manor house tries to shape unrefined modern woman” theme, see the British series, Ghosts. It’s perfection.
