April 9, 2020 – Snowpiercer (2013) Netflix
This was Henry’s pick – we were all fans of Bong Joon Ho’s Parasite. But I don’t think Henry had any idea how weird and disturbing this movie would be. We lost Wendey right away at the first sign of violence. Henry and I stuck it out to the end. I think he regretted watching the movie all the way through, but I liked the movie’s combination of heavy-handed parable, humor, action sequences, and weird sets and scenarios. Snowpiercer is no Parasite, but it is also not the same old thing – a fine counterpoint to this morning’s movie Remember the Titans.
