    This Thanksgiving make sure you make your whole family watch the hit comedy, Little Man, the movie where they superimpose Marlon Wayans's head onto a child actor and the effect is genuinely unsettling. It is not a Thanksgiving movie but you will be thankful it is over.

    Free Enterprise (1998): Charming/funny, but quaint Gen X nerd rom-com. American Dream (1990): Frustrating, heartrending, prescient on Union infighting. Shut Up, Little Man (2011): Interesting, but broad/overly long. Purple Rain (1984): Uneven stylish rock film. #LastFourWatched #LetterboxdFriday

    Little Man Tate. Way back in the 1960s, there was a movie called Charly, based on Flowers for Algernon. Charly was only gifted for a little while, but the movie adaptation was an excellent adaptation of an excellent book.

    I know there was already an episode based around this, but imagine an episode where Bunny Maloney and Candy look after a baby. But instead of a regular baby who is violent AF like before, it's a short criminal disguised as a baby, like with the short Baby Buggy Bunny or even the film Little Man.

    I just rewatched the film "Little Man Tate." The performances are so nuanced. There's subtext I didn't pick up on when I was younger. It's really a good film. Jodie Foster and Dianne Wiest, of course, deliver. Wonderful film.

In that film mention was made of a 1934 film that was censored in fascist Germany called "Little Man, What Now?" and I thought that sounds like a film I need to watch. www.youtube.com/watch?v=mgi9...
