A Night at the Movies (on my couch)
Jan. 25th, 2025 10:55 amLast night was movie night at Casa Gerrib, a double feature consisting of Personal Shopper and Out Come the Wolves. Herewith, thoughts.
Personal Shopper - I *thought* this movie was going to be some social commentary on rich people as seen through the eyes of Kristen Stewart, playing the titular character. Nope - it's a mixture of ghost story and suspense thriller. Now, to be fair, there is some commentary on rich people, but that's really secondary to the main plot.
Out Come the Wolves - this is a Canadian B movie which I viewed on a whim. It's also pretty good. Missy Peregrym plays a woman who grew up in rural Canada. She goes back for a weekend visit with her boyfriend and another man, a childhood friend. On several occasions, the movie takes a left when a more stereotypical movie would have gone right.
