Oh I'm sorry, Did I Break Your Conversation........Well Allow Me A Movie Thread by S&T

Anora was a surprisingly enjoyable film, offering an insightful depiction of the complexities surrounding the life of an adult dancer and escort. It did a great job highlighting the contrast between the illusions these women create and the underlying desperation for a chance at a better life. The film captured this duality with authenticity and nuance.

Anora’s frantic attempts to salvage her marriage were both amusing and predictable, adding a layer of humor to the drama. The ending, while not entirely shocking, felt fitting. You could see it coming—especially with the guy who genuinely showed her affection and care. His moment felt earned, a nice payoff for his role as the emotional anchor in her otherwise tumultuous life.

Without diving too deep into spoilers, the blend of drama and comedy worked well, keeping the story engaging and relatable. If you’re into dramatic comedies that explore raw and imperfect characters, this movie is worth a watch.

How many marquee franchises is this for Leto?

MotU, Morbius, Blade Runner, Tron, Joker. He needs to chill. :lol
I’d say it’s more a case of the people casting him needed to but I suppose that’s a matter of opinion.
 
I don’t understand the Timothy Chalamet thing.

To me he’s a mediocre actor.
I gotta see more (and maybe other earlier stuff), but I think from Lady Bird the first time I saw him, his adaptability to SNL environments and the type of people there, Dune: Part Two as he commanded that character which for me is currently his apex—I think he’s loading. Just loading up. Which, huge compliment because he’s done a lot of work already.
