neutral · AI labelView post →First watch: SWEET NOVEMBER (1968) This film pulled a fast one on me. I was initially annoyed by it and wondered if I could finish it. By the end I was tearing up and emotionally invested in the two main characters, Sara (Sandy Dennis) and Charlie (Anthony Newley). #FilmSky #MovieSky #drama

neutral · AI labelView post →There's a scene in Keanu Reeves' film Sweet November where he's having a lunch interview with possibly the biggest client he'll ever have the chance to work for, and the client treats the waitress in the least respectful and empathetic way. Keanu turns the job down based on just that. Be like Keanu
neutral · AI labelView post →It's from a 2001 movie called Sweet November but it's specifically said by Michael Rosenbaum (while in drag) to his boyfriend Jason Isaacs (also in drag) about Keanu Reeves figuring out he's a famous advertising executive?? LIKE WHAT THE HELL WHY DO I REMEMBER THIS SO CLEARLY??

'Sweet November' (w Anthony Newley, later remade w Keanu Reeves & Charlize Theron) 'Something Evil' - scary tv-movie 'Up the Down Staircase' - she's a teacher (maybe even Oscar nominated?) Oh! And 'The Out-of-Towners' w Jack Lemmon 🥰

positive · AI labelView post →Invented by Jimmy Eat World is a surprisingly deep cut soundtrack choice for such a basic film Reminds me when BNL’s Off the Hook showed up in Sweet November
neutral · AI labelView post →Had to check how many seen these days, 41 I'm sure of. Arguably best work is The Gift, bc he should've gotten to play villainous figures given how he is in that. But movie/Blahcett most things are DNW. Wouldn't've had interest if not for Matrix Reloaded/sequels/RPG, but Sweet November was liked.

neutral · AI labelView post →It never occurred to me that "Manic Pixie Dreamgirl" became part of the art culture back in 1968 withe the original version of "Sweet November". I am certain that I had heard of the trope a decade ago but never connected it to a film I saw on TV in the 70s.
