Mega64 Movie Club: The Holdovers
Added 2024-02-21 13:25:31 +0000 UTCOscar season continues as Rocco & Shawn are forced into a SECONDARY recording setup while preparations continue for Mega64 Olympic Board Games (which happened four days ago). We watch The Holdover, a movie we're told is a "holiday classic," which we're not sure about... featuring a lazy eye we may have heard TOO much about. What did the duo think of this Paul Giamatti holiday doorbuster?
Next week's movie is PAST LIVES.

I really want to hear your guys’ thoughts on perfect days. Lots of great 70’s music, middle aged dude protagonist, images of the beauty of Tokyo. It’s in 4:3 too lol

2024-02-22 11:31:16 +0000 UTCI can understand Rocco's take. it's definitely not a script or story that does anything particularly new, but I think it does it incredibly well. I saw it in theaters twice and both occasions had a theater of audiences both younger and older that were laughing and finding a clear emotional resonance with the camaraderie of this group. the scene where they give the kid a makeshift Cherries Jubilee after the restaurant won't make him one really hit close to home because it felt like something my dysfunctional family would have done for me.
