December 4, 2014 // ??? // Caroline

Trillsters,

Looking forward to this week! A quick poll. Have any of you seen the following? I feel like there may be a few (though hopefully not all) that some have seen. Any vote on which to watch?


  1. Fish Tank (aw it a few years ago and liked it)
  2. A Serious Man (I haven't seen it, but want to...)
  3. Incendies (I haven't seen it, but want to...)
  4. Vera Drake (I haven't seen it, but want to...)
A bit about each:

Fish Tank is a dark British coming-of-age story from 2009. A Serious Man (as you probably already know) is a dark, 2009 Coen Brothers comedy that I regret to say I've never watched. It's about faith/the questioning of faith. Incendies is a Canadian mystery/drama adapted from Wajdi Mouawad's play (of the same name) – it's about uncovering the mystery and details of the main characters' (who are twins) mother's life. Vera Drake is a British drama about the story of a working-class woman in London in 1950 who performs illegal abortions.

Let me know what sounds good to you, if any. I have a lot more on the list if none of these make the cut.

Otherwise, details as follows:Thursday, December 4

    My first choice would be serious man, but any of these sound worth the watch. (Dawson's too right guys? right? RIGHT?!?)

    I can't make it, but I have seen A Serious Man, which while funny and dark as everything else they make, was their weakest recent film. More of a Woody Allen style of humor.

    I've seen the first two films on the list.

    I have not seen any of these and they all look good to me. I think my first choice is Incendies, but I am good with any of them. And, for Ben, but not because I really, really want to, I'll agree to watch a DC.

    Incendies gets my vote, as does Dawson's, always and forever

    You got it, folks! Incendies it is. I have no idea if it's good/bad/whatever, but it's been on my list. I'm going to go Rory-style and watch it for the first time Thurs. See you all then.
