#MovieThread, 2022 edition!

In 2020 I watched 239 movies.
In 2021 I watched another 391,
for a total of 650 movies since very early into first lockdown.

That's probably all the movies, right?

#3, #653, I gotta get back to these, it's 1938 Best Picture nominee "Four Daughters."

This is before the 80s, when Hollywood perfected the "two schmucks with a bad idea" formula, so they've overshot to "four daughters."

#341, or #991, leaving now for a Pride Night screening of 2022's "Girls, Girls, Girls," also known as "Girl Picture," or its original Finnish title "Tytöt tytöt tytöt." No idea what it's about.

Well, girls, presumably.

Alright, alright, another classmate followed me on Letterboxd, what can I watch that'll at least look vaguely impressive, uhhh.

#351, or #1001, 2020 French-Canadian Celine Dion biopic that's not legally allowed to say it's about Celine Dion, but is definitely still about *a* Canadian singer who sung the song from "Titanic," , "Aline."

Nailed it.

Okay, so it's a Kinda Sorta Remake, and he's not just /that/ stupid that he'd go to a clearly cursed cabin, listen to a clearly cursed book, and flip through a clearly cursed book a second time.

But it's much funnier for me, personally, if he's just that stupid.
