Baby Reindeer (2024)
Brilliant but....
A brilliant series and outstanding performances particularly Gunning (aka Martha) - she definitely brings stalking to a whole new level, sinister and powerful throughout. It's not so much the subject matter however, that bothers me but the fact it's based on true events.
Donny (Gadd), at first comes across as a decent character but it's not long before one realises that his meek tendencies get slightly infuriating. He's annoying and it does get extremely difficult, as revelations unfold, for one to empathise with quite the selfish person he himself tends to be.
I came away thinking that Gadd, indeed to a certain level, has his own mental health issues bordering on masochistic and mildly narcissistic (which was probably why he fell victim to what seemed so many unnecessary situations!) Talk about wanting him to give him a slap!
That said all the subject matters portrayed were disturbing, uneasy to view and mystifying. A must watch.
Lady and the Tramp (2019)
Errrr....
Am I missing something but since when was it deemed acceptable for an interracial couple, in the 1900s, to marry, live together and furthermore have children without so much of a blink of an eye?
So historically inaccurate that I hardly noticed the dogs! I am getting ever so slightly annoyed that everything on tv has to be PC! Lives for the African-American communities were absolutely appalling back then (still are) and yet here they are being glossed over by the likes of Disney! Children need to be made aware how badly mistreated these people were.
