Enola Homes

 ENOLA HOLMES


Oh my god. This series is so beautifully done and amazing.


Enola Holmes, first film in 2019, second premiered last week stars Milly Bobby Brown as Enola, Louis Partridge as Tewksbury, and Henry Cavill as Sherlock Holmes.

Enola is the sister of Sherlock Holmes and is on a quest to find her lost mother. On her sixteenth birthday, Enola woke up to find her mother no where to be found. The only thing she left was a gift for Enola filled with clues for where she might be. Calling her brother, the quest is on to avoid boarding school and go to London to find her mother. 

Milly Bobby Brown is known for her starring in Stranger Things and numerous other films as she has grown up over the years. I have not seen her work recently, and this sparked a new obsession of watching her films. My partner and I binged watched both movies and fell in love.

The sets were made so beautifully, in-person and CGI. The films is set in the 1884 England with elaborate costumes and outfits, along with a diverse cast. Even though in the 1800s we would not see this many races in one equal setting, I like when films don't suppress to that and still cast a diverse set of people. 

With Netflix films, the problem always occurs to me of a good idea that gets excited poorly. This is not the case. Enola (Alone backwards) is such a strong, independent character that fights, swears and works on her own to solve her personally mystery. 

Sherlock Holmes as a man is always the go to for mysteries, and Enola is upcoming detective that does better work than her own brother.

Devil in Ohio

  Devil in Ohio Devil in Ohio premiered on Netflix earlier this month based on the novel and creator, Daria Polatin. Starring Emily Deshenael, playing the character of Mae Dodd, she escaped from a cult leaving her in the hands of a psychiatrist at a nearby hospital.  Watching the trailer got me so excited because I am a huge sucker for cult and crime documentaries. The acting in this show is… bad. However, even though it is not a documentary and more of a mystery drama, it does a good job with the suspense of the wonder of the cult. If you are interested in watching this series, I would not recommend reading as it will be filled with spoilers…Here we go! Episode one is insane. Opening scene is Mae running through a corn field covered in blood, holding a knife as she runs to find someone who can help her. As she approaches a car, she throws away the knife to stop a truck to pick her up and help. Following, we get introduced to Dr. Mathis, a psychiatrist who works with Mae the ...

Psycho!

  “The Shower Scene '' from the film Psycho premiered in 1960 starring Janet Leigh as Marion Crane and Anthony Perkins as Norman Bates. This particular scene is one of the most famous scenes in cinema history. Filled with jump cuts, this black and white film has the most intense point of view, and pretty bad acting but is curated super artistically. To start, the shot opens up with the toilet flushing and Marion has her back to the door while the camera moves with her to close it. She takes off her robe and walks into the shower as this is the first jump cut. She closes the shower curtain with just her silhouette showing as a foreshadowing for later in the scene. The next shot is a connecting jump cut that starts on one end and ends with her standing up to turn the shower head on. Continuing the rest of the scene is a long montage of different angles with the music intensive for when she gets stabbed. The rhythmic flow of the video has a light feeling without any suspicion unti...

Falling for Christmas- Lindsey Lohan

Lindsey miss Lohan. Falling for Christmas has premiered on Netflix this past week starring Lindsey Lohan and Chord Overstreet. Already, this film has received an 80% on Rotten Tomatoes and a 5.5/10 on IMBD. Lindsey Lohan has been on a hiatus for almost 10 years now making this her debut back to the big screen and I am SO excited to her in more things. Falling for Christmas is about a newly engaged heiress who gets in a horrible ski accident and develops amnesia. She ends up in a secluded lodge where she meets the new love interest. Horrible plot, but its Lindsey!!!!! The acting is bad, the graphics and movie is not great, but it is a great, classic Hallmark film to watch on a snowy day.  I remember being little and obsessed with Lindsey Lohan and everything sh was in so this is such a huge moment for me to see her again on my TV, even with her lip injections. Netflix has continued to premier endless Christmas movies every year with their collection getting bigger each season of rea...
