Christmas Twist

So. I went into "Last Christmas" with no knowledge and the general desire to see a festive romantic comedy. That happened. But you know what I got for seeing a Christmas movie that was released right after Halloween? That's right! A spooky twist!

Spoilers? Sure. I'm talking to myself here.

It's one of those "They've been dead for 15 years!" things.

Except it’s really just one year. There's a reason for it.

Also, the entire soundtrack is George Michael for some reason, but I was probably the last person to learn that.



Bonus Question!

Favourite George Michael song?



Yesterday Came Out Several Yesterdays Ago, But I Finally Saw It

Everyone knows I'm a big fan of Richard Curtis. Or they don't. But I am. "Love Actually" has a particular place in my heart after its introduction to me during a hospital stay at the end of one summer break led to endless viewings.


At the end of this summer, there was nothing in theatres I really wanted to see, which pushed me to finally give "Yesterday" a shot after I'd let it pass by for months. And then I realised it was written by Richard Curtis.

So. I thank you, September movie drought, for pushing me back into the warm embrace of Richard Curtis.

Bonus Question!

Favourite Beatle?


Paul. Dude just likes to be on. I feel that.
