P.S. A Column On Things

Movie: Blink Twice*****

September 15, 2024

An entertaining look at toxic masculinity if such a thing is possible. Both comedy and tragedy in unequal measure.

This movie is too easy to spoil so technical notes only. Heartily recommended.

It has a very satisfying ending.
Just over 90 minutes. Good length.
Women everywhere. Director and co-writer Zoë Kravitz. Definitely passed the Bechdel test. Lots of women who talk about things other than men.
As I have said before, plays deal with issues and entertain, movies generally just entertain. Blink Twice is an exception.

Run, don’t walk, to see The Devil Wears Prada 2. Film: Crime 101 ***** Groundhog Day
