Week 36.1 - Lee Daniels' The Butler

Fantastic.
If this movie teaches us anything, be on the right side of history.
  • What made me choose this movie?
    • My mom wanted to see it and it looked fantastic.
  • Describe this movie in one word. JUST ONE.
    • Inspiring.
  • Would I recommend it to a friend (or talk ad nauseum with my friends about it)?
    • Recommend? Absolutely.
    • Talk ad nauseum? Yes, I asked my mom questions about living through most of this time when we were on our way home.
  • Did I look anyone or anything up from the movie on IMDB or Wikipedia?
    • I looked up the actor who played Louis, who was the only main character I didn't recognize (which is funny, because he has been in SO MANY THINGS. Just nothing I have seen).
  • If I was trapped on a desert island, which character from this movie would I want to be trapped with and why?
    • Cecil. He is a survivor and has so much pride.
  • Did this movie provoke any outward emotional reactions? Crying, laughing out loud, throwing crap across the room, etc./et al. (Warning - I cry A LOT.)
    • I laughed. I cried. And I'll cry at the Oscar acceptance speeches.
  • Would I stop to watch this movie at any point during a showing on TBS?
    • Maybe.
  • Would I buy it on sale at Target for $5 or less (or even splurge on it full price)?
    • Probably not.
