Christmas Double Feature: "Meet Me in St. Louis" & "Red One"
Manage episode 457415444 series 3284227
Could "Meet Me in St. Louis" be the "Die Hard" of classic Christmas cinema, or is it just a nostalgic romp with holiday flair? We unwrap this debate on our festive episode of "Natey & Katy: At the Movies," starting with a warm and lively discussion about Judy Garland's unforgettable performance and the film's sentimental storyline. Katy gives a charming recap of the movie, exploring Garland's life and legacy, from her on-screen magic to her off-screen tragedies, including her marriage to the film's director and her legendary daughter, Liza Minnelli. We even touch on Renée Zellweger's touching portrayal of Garland in "Judy." This episode is brimming with holiday cheer, nostalgia, and a sprinkle of movie magic, making it the perfect seasonal listen.
Switching gears, we take on the hilariously ridiculous "Red One," starring big names like Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson and Chris Evans. Despite its star-studded cast, this film is more of a "bucket of suck" than a Christmas classic, with a plot so over-the-top that it's unintentionally funny. Picture a mission to save Santa with all the earnestness of a Hallmark movie but with a side of action-packed absurdity. While it might not be worth a direct watch, it could cause some laughs even if they're not on purpose. Plus, we remind everyone to embrace the true meaning of the season: celebrating the birth of Jesus Christ. So, grab a cup of cocoa and join us for a merry movie chat!
