"Bohemian Rhapsody

"Just watched the movie Bohemian Rhapsody. So impressive, much like the song. I've loved the music for ages and now even more as I watched what the musicians went through to create it. Even if the movie may not have been perfectly true to life, it definitely affected me. The young man, Rami Malek, who played Freddie Mercury, was magnificent. In two separate scenes he conveyed a strong emotion with only his eyes, no other physical movement at all. Which means he also had a good director."
-Nancy - Jackson Branch

"Darkest Hour with Gary Oldman"-
"I have long been a fan of Winston Churchill. However, as I watched the movie, it appeared that I was the only one who liked him. It helped that I knew the outcome and his contemporaries did not. This was the story of his first gig as Prime Minister at a time when not everyone knew about the true nature of Hitler. Churchill did not come to the position with a good reputation as a leader. To add to his woes, he was stubborn and did not take compromise lightly. In his dismay, he turned to the public and asked them directly, one-on-one, what they wanted for the country. To a person, they responded that they still wanted to fight the Nazis. Thus, his famous speech, "We shall fight on the beaches. We shall fight on the landing ground." Oldman convincingly captured Churchill's face and voice, so as an audience, I felt his conviction as if it were my ouwn country."-
Nancy, Jackson Branch
