Eurovision Fact #472:

Verka Serduchka appeared in the 2015 Melissa McCarthy movie 'Spy' for a brief cameo where she sang her 2007 Eurovision entry 'Dancing Lasha Tumbai.'

She performed her song at a small festival style concert that Melissa McCarthy's character interrupted by shoving her way on stage and stealing the microphone, pushing Verka and many of her dancers to the ground in the process.

i'm still going to see "argylle" but what i'm reading is that it basically tried to be 2015's "spy" (a movie i will stan until the end of time) and was suspected (though not proven) to be written by tswift

one critic called it smug and aggressive, others said it was soulless, cynical marketing. it was also clearly part of a planned trilogy

everyone go watch 2015's spy which despite being a comedy spoof with wigs and stunts, earned a 95% critical rating on rotten tomatoes

So I watched Spy (2015) last night, and I've come to a realization. I just don't like Melissa McCarthy's brand of comedy.

Coeli's Picks: Black, part 1

One Dress a Day Challenge

Anything Goes December

The Millionairess (1960) / Sophia Loren as Epifania Paregara

"I'm not familiar with The Millionairess, but this dress on Sophia Loren is great."

Clue (1985) / Madeleine Kahn as Mrs. White

"This is a fun one because it goes from a demure little widow-appropriate outfit (with jacket and veiled hat) [left] to an all-out evening look [right]."

Blazing Saddles (1974) / Madeleine Kahn as Lili von Shtupp

"I'd also suggest Kahn as Lili von Shtupp in Blazing Saddles for her costume in the "I'm Tired" number, but that's much more lingerie than dress..."

The Devil Wears Prada (2006) / various

"There are several chic black dresses in The Devil Wears Prada, unsurprisingly."

Beetlejuice (1988) / Winona Ryder as Lydia Deetz

The Addams Family (1991) / Anjelica Houston as Morticia Addams

Spy (2015) / Melissa McCarthy as Susan Cooper

"If you haven't seen this movie, you must. It's wonderful."

Atomic Blonde (2017) / Charlize Theron as Lorraine Broughton

"She's in this outfit for a decent chunk of the movie, IIRC, but sometimes with the coat closed and a gray scarf. She wears the same coat (I think) and boots and perhaps top with actual pants for the infamously brutal staircase fight. "

Spy (2015) 8/10

The CIA's top analyst (Melissa McCarthy) gets a crack at a case when her partner (Jude Law) dies in the field. It's up to her to find a stolen nuclear bomb that is at risk of being sold into the wrong hands.

Melissa McCarthy shines as Susan Cooper. She's smart, she's witty, and she has determination to make things right. She's also 40, and joined the CIA after quitting her teaching job. But despite the odds, she fights hard for what's right.

The movie stars an ensemble cast, including Miranda Hart, who plays Susan's best friend and colleague, Nancy B. Artingsall, Rose Byrne as Rayna Boyanov, the daughter of Tihomir Boyanov (the only other person who knows where the bomb is hidden), Jude Law as debonair agent Bradley Fine, and Jason Statham as Rick Ford, a super macho agent who clashes with Susan.

The plot is easy to follow, and the movie takes place in Rome, Paris, and Budapest, following Susan Cooper's mission. The jokes are witty, mostly delivered by McCarthy and Statham. (Statham's character has two particular monologues about what he's done on missions, and it's hilarious).

There's not really any dull moments in this movie, because you're engaged in the fact that Susan has to track down Rayna to get to the bomb. And she struggles a few times, but she manages. And Rose Byrne is hilarious as Rayna, playing a stuck up, but ruthless person. She is dedicated to what her father left her.

There's hand to hand fight scenes, a car chase, and shootouts, so if you like any of those in an action movie, this has all three.

I did recently rewatch this movie after not seeing it for a few years, so it did feel long to me, but maybe that's because it's been a while. I'm sure if you see this movie over and over, it'll feel short.

But this is a good action comedy if you don't want to think too much!

also can I just say? Susan x Rayna is real . . . But so is Susan x Nancy 😤😤😤
