Tangled

Tangled

64Watch it awake.

A false mother, a real kingdom, a girl who leaves. Worth an evening with children.

Pass it on

The review

Mother Gothel loves the hair, not the girl, and she has the language of care memorized. That is the useful terror of this film for a child old enough to hear it: someone who says they are keeping you safe may be keeping you useful. Rapunzel leaves anyway, badly, kindly, and then for good.

The frying pan is funny without being cruel. The kingdom at the end is a restoration, not a prize for being pretty. Watch it together. Ask who sounded kind and was not.

Consider this

Encanto

70 instead of 64

Encanto is still a animation film, and it scores 70 instead of 64. What you gain is republic: A village that receives the family's help and also receives its anxiety.

The eight

  1. 6
    Industry

    She cooks, she cleans, she paints, she learns a world in a day. The work is cheerful and specific.

  2. 8
    Household

    The tower is a counterfeit house. The kingdom, and a thief who tells the truth, are the repair.

  3. 5
    Piety

    A lantern festival is as close as the film comes to a common prayer.

  4. 7
    Courage

    She walks out of the only life she was allowed to call safe.

  5. 4
    Republic

    A kingdom has been missing its heir. The public is a festival, not a law.

  6. 7
    Temperance

    The jokes serve the girl. They do not humiliate her.

  7. 7
    Truth

    The film tells the truth that a captor can sound like love.

  8. 7
    Stewardship

    What she returns to is a people, and a name that was stolen.

1917

1917

64Watch it awake.

A message carried through a broken country. The courage is not the camera. The courage is the errand.

Pass it on

The review

Schofield is not chosen because he is special. He is chosen because he can run and because he has a brother in the line, which is a questionable reason for a general to use and an understandable one for a soldier to accept. The film's gamble is to stay with the body that has to cross the ground. When it becomes a stunt, it thins. When it stays an errand, it is about duty under a command that is not always worthy of the men.

Older teenagers and adults. Do not let the technique be the conversation. The conversation is a piece of paper that can save lives if a tired man will keep walking. Most of moral life is closer to that than to a speech.

Letters from Iwo Jima

76 instead of 64

Letters from Iwo Jima is still a war film, and it scores 76 instead of 64. What you gain is household: The letters are how a household survives a man it will not see again.

The eight

  1. 7
    Industry

    A runner's job: keep the paper dry, keep moving, do not become the story.

  2. 4
    Household

    A brother in the other company is the private reason. The public reason is the sixteen hundred.

  3. 3
    Piety

    A song in a wood, a ruined town. Reverence flickers and is not a sermon.

  4. 9
    Courage

    He goes on after the man he came with is dead. The order still stands.

  5. 8
    Republic

    The plot is a chain of command that can save or waste a regiment. He is trying to make it save them.

  6. 6
    Temperance

    The single shot is a feat and a temptation. The dying is not a trick.

  7. 7
    Truth

    The attack is a mistake. Delivering that fact is the whole truth of the mission.

  8. 7
    Stewardship

    If he gets there, other men get a tomorrow. That is the only legacy the film is interested in.

For this house

Keep going

The next title is the one nearest what this house keeps, then the measure where it is thin. Nothing here is a crowd. It does not leave this device.
