This is coming in late, so it’ll be another quick one. I am picking my favourites. 

Catherine Called Birdy (2022)
This is such a fun and funny coming of age comedy about a girl in medieval England.

Kimi (2022)
I really enjoyed this tech thriller that feels very current and highlighting a very real privacy issue for virtual assistant tech.

The Valet (2022)
The plot kinda seems silly and it kinda gives an impression of being a romantic comedy, though it is not.  It’s just a comedy and it is funny and just very sweet. 

The Wonder (2022)
The opening was kinda odd. The story moved rather slowly and only started picking up halfway through but I ended up liking the movie a lot; it was beautifully shot and haunting. The main character, the nurse, reminds me a lot of Jane Eyre; independent, with a quiet strength and very resolute.

    1. You’re fast at linking up, I just posted moments ago.
      Anyway I can’t comment on your blog, since it doesn’t allow guest comments and requires commenters to have accounts with either Wordpress, Twitter or Facebook.
      Also please note that the second Thursday themes are specifically for movies (TV movies allowed). Only the last Thursday themes are for TV series.

  4. OMG..I'm so late! I'm actually writing about movies every week! I'm continuing on and coming up with my own themes when you don't have anything that week. You inspired me.
    I haven't seen any of your films and only heard of The Valet but don't know anything about it. I'd like to see it.

    1. I've just realised The Valet is a remake, no wonder it felt familiar...I may have seen the original a long time ago.
