  • Olivia Colman and Jessie Buckley play feuding next-door neighbors in the delightfully mean and eloquently profane "Wicked Little Letters." Amazingly, this comedy is based on a true story about a series of vicious, anonymous letters that scandalized an English seaside town after World War I, but the movie itself is perfectly pleasant. Thea Sharrock directs from a script by Jonny Sweet. Co-starring Timothy Spall, Gemma Jones, Anjana Vasan and Eileen Atkins. In theaters now.

    I absolutely adored this movie last weekend. Olivia Colman has become an Actor that when I see her name in a film I will be there.
    The cast all around I found to be very strong and hilarious too

      Yeah, I'd say the same for Jessie Buckley. I just saw it, and it definitely deserved a higher score. Calling it cutesy and saying it was mostly about the timelessness of trolling is really missing the point.

    I like these smaller movies with offbeat characters and unusual storylines. I recently watched LaRoy (2023) and The Last Stop in Yuma County (2023) and I'd like more character movies.

    Both lead actresses are great, 2 recs I would give for people would be Olivia in "Broadchurch" and Jessie in "Fargo" S4. If your scores were a little higher it would have made my def watch list but now I may still but who knows when list. lol

    The movie was okay. At least it was short and sweet, unlike most arthouse movies. I'm bothered by the forced diversity. I don't think it's as innocuous as you guys say. I'm a poc myself, and while I want diverse projects, this one wasn't the right one. Having a mixed cast in a movie about England in the 1920s erases that country's racist history. Is that a good message? So the community was biased against an Irish person, yet accepting of the black boyfriend, South Asian cop and black judge? Young people watching this would think race relations were fine and dandy in the UK in those days. I know the casting was done with good intentions, but it harms more than it helps. This is the second movie in a row where Jessie Buckley has a black boyfriend. Meanwhile, she's married to a white man, and none of her previous boyfriends were black or poc. That tells you how false and awkward this trend in casting is.

    • @StephenDeagle
      @StephenDeagle 2 месяца назад

      As a more centrist guy myself, I'm genuinely shocked more liberals don't get how dangerous it is to reverse whitewash our history in the name of forced diversity. It's pandering. It's performative. And it only serves to gentrify our past in service of preventing us from facing ugly realities.

    • @funnyguyla
      @funnyguyla 2 месяца назад

      100% agree about the casting! I'm black and it drove me nuts. You expect us to believe anti-Irish racism exists but not towards any other race? However, who Jesse Buckley is married to in real life has nothing to do with who gets cast as her love interests. She's an actress. You may need to rethink this.

      @angelthman1659 2 месяца назад

      @@funnyguyla i hear you and you're correct. It's acting not real life. But I'm pointing out a trend with the casting of her partners that she had no chemistry with. She doesn't come across on the screen as the type that would be in a mixed relationship, and her real life dating history confirmed that for me. She's just participating in the "program" and it shows.

      @geistakageist2932 You got me. I just hate seeing people of color. That's definitely it. Not seeing them tokenized and patronized by self-satisfied progressives. Not sacrificing cinematic verisimilitude for the sake of performative profilicity. Not for the veneration of purely surface level diversity. I just don't like people with too much melanin. How insightful of you to notice.
