Aloha Everyone,
Marriage Story
It’s a story of extreme love and hate. Couple’s relationship with each other and their young son. Love is everlasting. Scarlett Johansson as the suffering wife and Laura Dern as her smart, aggressive divorce lawyer gave excellent performances.
Blood, Sex & Royalty, The Last Boleyn
Anne Boleyn was the second wife of King Henry VIII, Queen of England from 1533-1536. This is unorthodox, present time interpretation incorporating documentary style, interviews and POP music. Having casts playing as historians helped learn background information of ladies in waiting their roles and how Anne Boleyn was framed by the king himself to be found guilty of treason.
Colette
Based on a true story of the revolutionary feminist author, who lived too early for her time. Colette’s bold, liberated persona caused a riot in 1907.
In France, Colette was a star. She was the second woman to be made a grand officer of the Legion of Honour, and first to be given a State Funeral. Colette died at the age of 81 in 1954.
Keira Knightley is one of my favorites and one of the most versatile actors. Her performances in Pride & Prejudice, Pirates of the Caribbean, Doctor Zhivago, Anna Karenina and Colette are indicative of her talent.
Aloha -- Cathi
