The Little Mermaid (PG): An emotional return to a Disney classic: Done. Just. Right.

#onemannsmovies review of "The Little Mermaid" (2023). #TheLittleMermaid. Delightful remake, better than it ever deserves to be. 4.5/5.

A One Mann’s Movies review of “The Little Mermaid” (2023). My disdain for the Mouse company in repeatedly raping and pillaging their animated classics to produce often tawdry live-action remakes is well known. (I described “The Lion King” as “gorgeously pointless”). And the gestation of this one has not been without controversy with the casting of the black Halle Bailey generating a twitter…

The Gilded Age Will Get a Lot More Operatic in Season 2

Full article copied below:

BY RICHARD LAWSON AUGUST 23, 2023

The second season of HBO’s The Gilded Age (premiering October 29) will amp up the stakes, along with the lavish production design. As we see in these first-look images and a new trailer, debuting exclusively on VF.com, the late-19th-century swells of the Upper East Side are back at it in extravagant fashion—while their maids and cooks and butlers scurry about the mansion basements attending to their own complicated intrigues.

“The whole thread of [season two] is wrapped around this story of dueling opera houses,” says executive producer David Crockett. Those houses are the Academy of Music, long the cultural destination of Manhattan’s most monied families, and the upstart Metropolitan Opera. (We, of course, know who won in the end.) “The opening nights of the 1883 season—and the first ever opening night of the Met—fell on the same night,” says Crockett. “So you have this very clear choice for all of New York society: Are you going to go the old money route, or the new money route? It’s a great engine for a classic clash.” 

Bertha Russell, the new-money industrialist’s wife played with flint and mettle by Carrie Coon, lays it plain in an early episode of season two: “The opera is where society puts itself on display, where the elite meet each other and their children court each other and where the wheels of society turn.” And so we will watch those wheels turn, and wrench. As dramatized by Downton Abbey creator Julian Fellowes, The Gilded Age gives viewers the vicarious delight of swanning around opulent estates and fabulous Newport parties—as well as perhaps the slight queasiness of guilt. After all, should we really be fawning over such blithe plutocrats?

Executive producer Michael Engler, who also directs many episodes of the series, says that moral shading is a deliberate part of TheGilded Age picture, perhaps even more so in season two. “They have moral choices,” Engler says of the show’s many rich folks. “As you watch them make [those choices], that’s how you determine their moral character and value. It’s not, We love the rich and we love watching them, so we don’t really care how they act. You see what it takes and what it costs people to behave a certain way.” Season two will also expand on the first season’s glimpse of Black society in Brooklyn, the home turf of Denée Benton’s Peggy Scott, who works for a white family—among them the imperious and very old money Agnes van Rhijn (Christine Baranski) and her spinster sister, Ada (Cynthia Nixon)—while negotiating political and social matters across the river. Ada, meanwhile, may finally be getting a love interest. 

Benton, Baranski, and Nixon are but three of the many New York stage luminaries who make up the cast of The Gilded Age. That the show is essentially a who’s who of Broadway stars wasn’t exactly by design; it was more an unexpected, and quite happy, development, says Engler. He remembers famed New York casting director Bernard Telsey telling him that a variety of notable names were eager to be a part of the project. “It was amazing. It was like, Really? She would play a recurring character on our show?”  Those actors are natural interpreters of The Gilded Age’s tone and temperament. “Our theater people are so trained to do this kind of material—great language, complex period character work—that they just never get to do on film,” says Engler. “Even Christine Baranski. She said, ‘I’ve done period plays my whole life, but I’ve never acted in a period thing on film.’ She was just so excited about doing that. It became clear that those were the people best suited to it, and we got particularly lucky.” 

With its intricate environments—careful mixes of practical sets, real locations, and digital effects—and a sprawling cast of ornately costumed characters, The Gilded Age season two promises to deliver on the period grandeur so beloved by fans. “It’s much bigger than Downton,” says Engler, a veteran of that show. How could it not be, as The Gilded Age considers a whole city, teeming with stories, burgeoning along? It’s fitting, then, that so much of season two will center on something as sweeping—and expensive—as the opera. The curtain can’t raise soon enough.

I love that these conversations are happening but people need to remember it’s not necessarily the casts’ fault for the lack of diversity. Like you said it’s the white people and higher ups but because they’re not at the forefront the backlash goes onto the cast. I love the movie but all of the critiques are 1000% valid.

I think that people have gotten hung up on what type of diversity is shown here. Yes, this is diversity. Yes, this is positive Latino representation. (No, this is not adequate diversity for the location of the story.) Despite all of the faults in casting, this is still a milestone for Latinos. People like Anthony have been waiting for this moment and crushing him is totally wrong. There is no doubt in my mind that he was the absolute best choice for the role from a performance standpoint. This is his time to shine and dragging him down is not the correct way to combat this. He did not control who got cast. The (white) casting directors, Lin, Jon, and the producers did. Holding the correct people accountable is what is going to make progress. Do I believe that it is wrong to ask Anthony about this in interviews? Absolutely not. Ask away! But if you're asking Anthony, also ask Scott Sanders. Ask Anthony Bregman. Ask Lin Manuel Miranda. Ask Bernard Telsey.

FYI part 2.........

More info on the movie... Camila is still the only known cast of Cinderella. They are keeping everything about it very tight lipped.

The info I’ve been able to find, so far: It’s an original idea from James Corden. The screenplay was written by Kay Cannon, who will also be directing the movie. It is a Sony film, produced by Fulwell 73 and Columbia Pictures. James Corden, Leo Pearlman and Jonathan Kadin will be the Producers of the film.

The casting directors are Bernard Telsey and Patrick Goodwin from Telsey and Company. They have not announced any open casting calls for the movie, yet.

It is in pre-production, and scheduled to begin shooting in January of 2020, in New York.

For the record, I have no problem with Canada being a cast member of the film. I just don’t think their on-screen chemistry is good enough to portray lovers in a movie. (or real life, let’s be honest)

From the moment I heard Camila was going to be starring in a James Corden adaptation of Cinderella, my first thought to play the “Prince”, if the movie has one, would be Harry Styles. He is a credited actor, and has the star power to play opposite Camila and get asses in seats.( If not Harry, then one of the other 1D boys who want to try their hand at acting. Fulwell 73 produced quite a bit of 1D stuff back when they were a thing)

The only thing that half ass worries me about Canada portraying a possible love interest, is one, lack of on-screen chemistry, two, he really can’t act “straight” for shit. It is publicly known, Canada wanted to audition to play the lead role in “Love, Simon”. So, with that, he would make a great gay best friend to our lovely Cinderella.(you know, just being himself!!!)

For me, the movie would be so much better, if it was “re-imagined” for the times. If Cinderella didn’t go to a “ball” to find a Prince, but instead she finds her Princess. Who better to play Cinderella’s Princess, but Columbia Records very own, Lauren Jauregui. Now, that would be a perfect re-imagining of a fairy-tale, for the ages.

The Greatest Showman (2017) Review

Thinking of going to see The Greatest Showman? Don't wait until tomorrow, go tonight! #Review

In the run-up to Christmas, I was very taken by the Sky Movies TV ad showing a mum and her daughter watching “The Sound Of Music” over and over again through the years. For me, it perfectly captured the sentimental sweet spot of Christmas, family and the magic of movies. I found myself wondering what our family’s equivalent film would be and whether we’d even be able to narrow it down to a single…
