50 new things in 2023, part 1/50
Jan. 3rd, 2023 07:30 pmJust to be clear: I'm not necessarily going to write long detailed posts about everything, because I don't want this project to start feeling like homework when it's meant to be fun.
Anyway, this week's new thing was Glass Onion, the second Benoit Blanc movie after 2019's Knives Out (which, coincidentally, was the last movie I saw in the cinema before the pandemic took hold). I still haven't been back to the cinema; Glass Onion is streaming on Netflix in the US.
I was mostly unspoiled for it, which is a good state to be in for this movie. It was tremendous fun, and more than that, tremendously satisfying given the current state of . . . everything. In fact it ended up more timely than could have been planned for. But I think it will age well, even when its topical references are (let's hope) no longer topical, because it's got good bones. Not to mention good costumes.
