I regret only getting four hours of sleep last night

Dancing and singing as Carl Hanratty in Don’t Break the Rules is NOT for the sleep deprived, nor the weak hearted

I think I've made a ship so niche that only I am a fan of it.

I like to think that Carl had a weird wife.

Sweet, sunny, the complete opposite of him. Knew each other since highschool (Because of course he'd pick someone he's familiar with, the only person who would actively tolerate and be friendly towards him.) and the only person he considered a 'friend'.

There's a reason why he's against 'cheating' at life..

This sound reminded me of the Deranged Dollar Au

Every so often I see someone make a case for a movie that in their opinion should be a Christmas movie.

So let me put my case before the Christmas movie court.

Catch Me If You Can (2002) - with Leonardo DiCaprio, Tom Hanks, Christopher Walken, etc.

- This movie celebrates multiple Christmases over the course of the movie.

- There's at least 2 Christmas songs predominantly featured in this movie - including one at the emotional climax of the movie - when DiCaprio returns to his childhood home.

- It's a reoccurring and relevant plot point that DiCaprio's reaches out to Hanks's character yearly via phone on Christmas.

- Followed by DiCaprio finally being apprehended by Hanks at Christmas.

- And a few years later he's transferred to the US just in time so that when he escapes custody it's roughly the Christmas season again.

- It takes place in the 60s. How many Christmas movies bank on nostalgia?

- And in this case, there's also nostalgia in DiCaprio for a family that never really existed - at least not the way he thought it did.

- It's a coming of age story - framed by separating the fantasy of your family with the reality and coming to terms with that. (But with more crime.)

- It's a movie about the fracture of the American family and a son trying to heal it (by committing so many crimes). And Hanks and DiCaprio bond, finding companionship, purpose, and maybe even a found family in each other in the process. What's a more (American) Christmas story than that?

- If you were going to write a redemption arc Christmas story and you had a dad befriend, rehabilitate, and semi-adopt you, wouldn't your first pick be Tom Hanks? And (outside of his war movies) Hanks screams cozy nostalgia (literally this year a cable channel said screw it, Tom Hanks marathon is as close to holiday vibes as we can get for Thanksgiving).
