i just hope rn bryan denton is hugging his adoptive daughter (katherine plumber) so tight and giving her all the reassurance she doesnt get at home

[chaosfairy18]

Ok so since a few of my friends have been very passionate about Katherine lately I thought I'd also talk about her (and Denton) a bit, not specifically judging or calling out but just some thoughts I had on them personally. So who knows me knows I love 92sies and yeah I was mad at first for Disney shoving a Disney Plot twist (oh no the reporter is related to the villain, we can't trust her now) as well as a love plot for an independent working woman in and then even cut my man Denton when my ideal world would have both of them. (Additional info since seeing UKsies I am much more in favour of Jatherine but before that they had no chemistry for me almost which only made me more annoyed at the love interest thing)

Hear me out. So Denton is interested in the strike but at first definitely only a bit until Kony (or more rather the fight before where police is not stepping in but instead keeping children locked in so they can get hit and beat). In the world we have both of them working for the Sun I am imagining him seeing her drive and want to work, her aspiration and her feeling for a good story and telling her about it, saying she should maybe go to where the newsies hang out and ask about the strike as he knows she wants to get out of the social pages and probably doesn't yet know how big the strike would get. The very latest they'd both be there for the Brooklyn showing up fight (or just taking the picture before Kony, but I do like my world more with Brooklyn here early) and then both for different reasons get really involved in the strike, personally.

So not to talk more about the timeline but more about how different Denton and Katherine get into the strike and connected to the newsies. Denton has seen some things as an ace war reporter, I'm sure, especially terrible things and has most likely seen young boys fight, even if not in a strike. He's feeling for them as an older man who knows he isn't in their shoes, far from it, but he has empathy for them and sees how dependent on child labour the city is after a short while and also how unfair they are treated, admires their fight, but he doesn't get it all, which is where Katherine comes in. Katherine also has to fight, so so much, just to get acknowledged, just to work at all, and even then the newsies first and foremost react to her with misogyny, but she still knows their fight in ways Denton doesn't, knows how it is to earn almost nothing (because even if her father is rich her own money she makes is abysmally small, probably around what a newsie makes that doesn't sell 100papes per edition as as far as I read that is a Huge amount) and knows she will treat them as, in a way, people with an equal fight (at least after Kony).

Which is also fitting on the topic of "oh Denton paid their fees and food" Denton has most likely a lot of money as an older white man who was an 'ace war reporter' and is 'friends' with the governour (Denty *cough*) Katherine has almost no money she makes herself, it is unlikely that at this time she just has money from her father she can use, and she sees the newsies as people that she is sure wouldn't want charity and people just paying for their things (like food) and is therefore not only not able to pay their fees or for food but also at least wouldn't do much for food as they are both rude to her at first and she wants to treat them without thinking of them as "poor orphans where a rich socialite has to pay their food"

One last thing I do think she could see him as a father figure who actually supports her as Pulitzer doesn't seem to be fond of her working until he is bragging in front of Jack and Denton could be so supporting in the Sun, helping her with everything and even trying to get her stories. Just let them co-exist in peace

Happy reading!

[totallysora]

okok so I’ve seen some stuff abt denton/katherine recently n I wanna say my opinion 🥰 I don’t think any of this is gonna be offensive or anything, but if u do get offended pls don’t like,,,get mad n yell at me just tell me why/explain why it was offensive n I’ll totally fix it!

OK SO 😻 I absolutely adore kath, like honestly she’s amazing, and although definitely not one of my favourites (nothing against her btw but my love for all lf the newsboys is crazy so anyone who isn’t them is automatically lower down 😭) and I’m glad she’s a character we were introduced to! I know we got sarah in 92sies, but realistically I do think katherine fits in with the story sm better, not only keeping the idea of a love interest for jack but also actually giving us a female character that actually plays a big part plot wise, and (no offence to sarah 😭) is actually important to the story n has character

When I first watched newsies I didn’t rlly like katherine (but to be completely honest it’s just cuz it was her getting to be with Jeremy Jordan not me 😔💔) but when I was able to get over the fact that she was living my dream, she grew on me for sure! She’s so silly n Kara plays her so well! Also, the fact that we at least get one female character who actually works with the newsies is awesome considering yk,,female newsies existed 😻 (gonna be totally honest Ik nothing abt the actual strike 😕)

That being said, I still think Dentons existence should at least be acknowledged yk 😭❓ Take writing fanfics for example, I’m aware most people write abt the musical, meaning denton isn’t actually in it, which I totally get! Whilst I do like denton, I (as well as most people probably) prefer katherine, but I still definitely enjoy reading or watching stuff abt him, as I can still appreciate that he was the original reporter character, and some people prefer the movie or have only watched the movie, meaning they may like him more as that’s what they’re used to! I absolutely understand liking denton, however saying that katherine is sub par, and saying the fact she is a woman is historically inaccurate is ridiculous 💀 (and that’s saying smth coming from me, considering I know absolutely nothing abt the actual strike n even I know thats wrong 😭) Katherine is a great character, and she doesn’t have to be your favourite to see that! So anyone hating on her or just straight up being an asshole by saying some completely inaccurate and frankly pretty fucking offensive stuff, pls kindly fuck off 🥰 Katherine absolutely does not have to be your favourite character, and you don’t have to prefer her over denton, you just need to be able to share ur opinion without being a dick and not talk absolutely bs!

Thanks for reading my kinda confusing (Idk if it made sense) opinion if u got to the end 😋🫶

Bryan Denton father figure to Katherine plumber when he finds out he’s not the only one following the story of the newsboy strike

He’s been in the newspaper game for years, and this girl is smart and focused and independent and knows what she’s doing,

A better journalist than a solid bunch of supposed reporters he’s worked with

He can’t wait to see her as a big newspaper name in a few years

Katharine Ross in The Stepford Wives (1975)

Dir.Bryan Forbes

Joanna Eberhart has come to the quaint little town of Stepford, Connecticut with her family, but soon discovers there lies a sinister truth in the all too perfect behavior of the female residents.

*Author Ira Levin was originally going to write this as a stage play, until he realized there were too many characters and opted to turn it into a novel instead, which the film was based on.

Argylle

I haven’t seen a really good spy flick since the final Daniel Craig Bond film, I’m not saying that they all have to be grim dark because I’m also a huge fan of the Derek Flint movies as well. So when I went to see Argylle, I was expecting something more akin to the latter. Judging by the trailers, I wasn’t expecting criterion collection cinema, but I wasn’t prepared for this. So let’s talk about Argylle.

The story starts with Elly Conway (Bryce Dallas Howard) a novelist who is working on her fifth book in her very popular Argylle spy novel series. After meeting an actual spy Aidan (Sam Rockwell), she finds out that her works might not actually be fiction.

If you have seen, ANY spy movie in the last 30 years (god am I really that old?), you’re going to spot at least 5 cliches in Argylle.

Visually it’s got a lot of great costuming and set pieces, I loved the little details such as Alfie (the cat)’s carrying case and the general outfits of the entire cast.

The music choices were fun, I loved hearing Rasputin in the various fight scenes it created some nice contrasts.

And the fight scenes were so hype, it reminded me of films like Bullet Train.

But that leads to one of the films’ many issues, it reminded me of so many previous spy films! From the fight scenes, to other plot points that I won’t bring up because of spoilers, but trust me you will notice them!

The cast is about as safe as you can get in Hollywood. You can’t blink a miss an A-lister, with the likes of Samuel L. Jackson and Bryan Cranston. I would name the rest, but we would be here as long as the film’s runtime (which is over 2 hours).

Argylle is a nothing burger, it’s derivative and I am honestly unable to find other adjectives to describe it.

It just barely counts as art, because there was some effort put into some of it.

It’s not awful, but it’s far from great and not worth paying full price for a ticket, check it out on a matinee or wait for it to release on Apple TV.

I give Argylle a 3 out of 5.

Have you perhaps draw a Denton?

It's no coincidence that "dilf" and "denton" start with the same letter

Bored. Thinking about how for both 92sies and livesies/uksies there's probably load of newsies that can't read and/or write. Their respective journalists help teach them and the 92sies overcome their (very understandable) distrust of richer adults with Denton and the livesies/uksies work through their assumptions of katherine based on her father.

NO SUDDEN MOVE (2021) Grade: B-

What I liked was the DP work and the great tone / chemistry amongst the actors. Almost lost me towards the end of 1st act, then the pace picks up. The last 30 min will make it a cult classic. Will probably like it more after a 2nd viewing.
