Yeah, I stopped paying attention around then too and just kept it on in the background while I cleaned the house. The Rock's same old shtick is getting tired. Chris Evans had a funny line or two, and I love Simmons and Shipka, but neither were on screen enough to save it.
A few of these I wouldn't consider particularly depressing, but if we're goin Christmas adjacent, I will add:
Melancholy at best.
Does Gremlins count? The story about Phoebe Cates dad is pretty rough.
Explicitly, no. But the film was shot around the holidays so it always feels Christmas-y.
I always do Dead Poets and Swing Kids as a double depressing feature of Robert Sean Leonard.
Two years ago a friend gave me the same and I didn’t use it much because of some life stuff and I’ve been wanting to re-sub again. My only gripe is most things are only in stereo
I'm hoping (a little) that The Smashing Machine with Benny Safdie will make him want to try and act more instead of just playing The Rock in slob after slob.
Red One
Conclave or Twisters on Peacock
Hundreds of Beavers on Tubi. You will not regret.
Yeah it’s on Kanopy too, this one’s already on my watch list. So mad I was traveling for work when it was in theaters again recently
