10. No Hard Feelings
Jennifer Lawrence is having a great time here and her charisma is infectious. Andrew Barth Feldman is just as good as an innocent, and virginal, high school senior whose PARENTS, not him, want him to lose his virginity before he goes away to college. It is crude, obscene, vulgar, and everything else that made 80s/90s comedies golden. Most importantly, it has a ton of heart and is completely genuine.
We’re back with our review of Alexander Payne’s newest film The Holdovers, a Christmas story of three lonely, shipwrecked people at a New England boarding school over a very snowy holiday break in 1970. The movie stars Paul Giamatti, Da’Vine Joy Randolph and Dominic Sessa. 📚

“A cranky history teacher at a remote prep school is forced to remain on campus over the holidays with a troubled student who has no place to go.”

This isn’t a review, but a look at why this specific film is one of my favorite of all time. Want an extremely short review? “Election” is a masterpiece in film making that has beautifully subtle direction, a flawless script, incredible performances, and is funny as hell.
Here, I am going to talk about why this movie can be used as a metaphor for most elections that happen every four years in this country. The film maybe about a high school election but many of the antics can be applied to the event that defines our Democracy. Please enjoy….
