Barbie Presents: Thumbelina (2009)
so weird
An absolute fever dream in a good way. One of my staple movies when i was a little kid. Also has a good environmental message for kids.
Barbie: A Fairy Secret (2011)
wildest barbie movie
Legit one of my favorite movies. It has a batshit plot, even more than the other barbie movies. Really funny though and great to watch when ur bored. A childhood favorite of mine.
The Queen's Gambit (2020)
absolutely incredible binge watch
One of the best netflix series on the service. The acting, directing, writing, soundtrack, and visuals DO NOT DISAPPOINT. Anya taylor joy is my favorite actress and she did an amazing job here. Only thing is i wish there was maybe one more episode to flesh out jolenes character instead of having her seemingly randomly show up at the end to save beth. That however doesn't detract from the overall experience and this miniseries is one of my favorite shows i've ever watched.
Marie Antoinette (2006)
perfectly captures the era and marie antoinette
Marie antoinette, a much maligned figure in french history, is given a fresh look in this film. Instead of smearing her as a self-centered spoiled brat like many interpretations, coppola paints marie as a teenage girl under immense pressure. The candy-coated color palette and incredible costumes and set really emphasize how young and naive marie antoinette was when she was sent to versailles. Overall i enjoy this delightfully frilly take on marie antoinettes marriage to louis xvi. 1 star subtracted purely because i would've liked to see more of marie's childhood in austria.
