neutral · AI labelView post →Watched Fighting with My Family (2019) last night, a #comedy drama based on the true story of English wrestler Paige (Florence Pugh) who went to WWE. I have no interest in wrestling, but it's a fun film. Written by Stephen Merchant with Nick Frost, Lena Headey and Vince Vaughn. #Filmsky #Moviesky 📽️

positive · AI labelView post →I've watched both Assaults on Precinct 13, the original and the Ethan Hawke/Laurence Fishburne one. I liked both. I wonder which one had the highest body count?🤔 Fighting With My Family is a fun, heartwarming film. I've never seen Cutter's Way. I've seen Cooley High, but not in a long while.

neutral · AI labelView post →Fighting With My Family is a wonderful little gem of a film. I saw it a few times when it was on EPIX (back when that was a thing). I love Florence Pugh, of course, but Nick Frost was a hoot as her dad. Stephen Merchant should direct more.

positive · AI labelView post →All these are films I haven't seen for ages (except Fighting With My Family, obviously, as it had just been a year or so since I saw it last). If you haven't seen Cutter's Way, I think you'd really like it. Neo-noir sort of thing. And Fighting With My Family is just a little gem of a movie.
positive · AI labelView post →I've never seen the Precinct 13 remake. I guess there are a lot of remakes I haven't seen. Love Fighting With My Family. A real little gem. Cooley High has such an amazing soundtrack. Really good film. Cutter's Way has terrific performances from Jeff Bridges and especially John Heard. Neo-noir.
positive · AI labelView post →Been wanting to see this since it came out, the release of Thunderbolts finally pushed me to do so. Love this movie. My ★★★★★ review of Fighting with My Family on #Letterboxd boxd.it/9Dk3CP
positive · AI labelView post →I did. And I really liked Midsommar. That's my kind of horror movie. I first saw her in Lady Macbeth and have been a fan since. One of my Florence Pugh favorites is a movie called Fighting With My Family. She plays WWE wrestler Paige. And she was great as Amy in Little Women.
positive · AI labelView post →Fighting With My Family just popped up on my dashboard. I actually liked this movie. Florence Pugh stars as Paige/Saraya and it's pretty much a dramatized version of how she became a WWE talent. Lena Heady and Nick Frost are her parents.

Then again, I am in the specific intersection of huge pro-wrestling fan and huge fan of the comedic stylings of Stephen Merchant. So of course this movie really works for me. Love all the performances - and so much heart to boot.

I watched it back then due to being proximity to Pro Wrestling which I'm still into for nearly 20 years. Little did I know back then that Florence Pugh would become a Superstar.
