    Seems like everyone had fun with this one! I did not get it but that’s fine! It looked good. Sounded good. I’m all for ambiguity but maybe sometimes it’s just lazy.

    I could watch approximately 30 hours of Pope content so this was a hit for me.

    I think young me and old me would basically just chill and watch the Knicks together. 

    Really gross (in a good way) — probably 30 minutes too long due to a compulsive need to constantly reexplain itself.

    A visually perfect TV movie from the BBC. An unsparingly bleak judgement of post-war British society. “Keep Calm and Carry On” is all well and good until you’re lying under a mattress alone in an abandoned house covered with radiation burns. 

    Reminds you that modern lighting practices are so bad.

    Do you want to see a satire reveal itself as horror?Watch the first 52 minutes of this movie. Do you want to see horror celebrate melodrama? Watch the rest.
