    Thomas Brodie-Sangster was 13-years-old when this was made and Keira Knightly was only 18. He was in The Queen's Gambit series on Netflix about chess and in the MazeRunner movies. Currently in The Artful Dodger miniseries. He's now 33 years old.

    Fun fact: Kit Harrington (Jon Snow) has said that the scene with Emma Thompson crying in her bedroom is the only scene to always make him cry and that he believes it to be one of the best acted scenes because it so subtle and heartbreaking.

    It was great that it explored the many aspects of love instead of just romantic drivel.
    The final airport scene, with God Only Knows playing puts me in tears every time, because suddenly it is all real.
    Little factoid, Paul McCartney says he cries every time he hears God Only Knows and that it is the best pop song ever created. High praise.

    The scene when Emma is crying knowing what her husband was up to.. she cried real tears. Emma marriage to Kenneth Branagh had come to an end back in 1995 when he had an affair with Helena Bonham Carter. So she used that as the catalyst of emotional distress in that particular scene. great reaction guys wish you all very Merry Christmas. I hope you have a wonderful 2024

    In comes the British person! Watching you guys learn about British culture is very entertaining. And yes Marc everything you call cookies we call biscuits...except chocolate chip cookies....they're cookies.
    I don't know the lad's name and I haven't seen it but is the young kid in Queens Gambit?
    Kiera's hubby is Chewitel Ejiofor (sp?) he was the lead in 12 Years A Slave and plays Mordo in the Dr Strange movies! No idea how much Liam's house costs but they're all in London so I'm gonna say a LOT 😂. I assume you didn't recognise Ant and Dec, the tv duo interviewing Bill Nighy when he said don't buy drugs. They're a super famous presenter duo here. Arguably more famous than Graham Norton!

Did they do any hosting or emceeing for Britain's Got Talent? Because I want to say I saw one or both of them in an old Susan Boyle clip..

    I absolute agree with the relief that this wasn't like one of those cheesy romances. When I first watched this it was a movie night at a friend's place. I inwardly groaned when she said this was the movie were all going to watch. But of course I was polite and feigned excitement. And, like you, I was absolutely won over and loved it. ❤

    • @DavidvsFilm
      @DavidvsFilm  Před 7 měsíci

      Hahahaha yeah, I honestly wasn't sure how it was going to go with Marc and this one. You know I'm easy when it comes to rom coms, but Marc is usually predisposed to courtroom dramas and thrillers. I was very relieved ;)

      @DavidvsFilm I agree!!! It's always so heart breaking when u hear that a child actor grows up & either turns to drugs or other vices to cope with life so it's lovely to see that this fella appears to have made it to adult acting & at least appears to be content.

    I've already left some comments on the full video on Patreon, but will add that this movie is a bad influence. 😂 Me and Mike were at church on Christmas Eve and it came time for the kiddos to do their Nativity reenactment. I turn to Mike and go "But where's the lobster? And the octopus? And Spider-Man???" And he goes "8 is a lot of legs, David", which caused me to giggle and snort.
    ALSO, Karl is Paulo (as in Nikki and Paulo) from LOST. I thought for sure you'd recognize him from that!

    Merry Christmas! I do wish you had time for Muppets A Christmas Carol because that movie is AMAZING.
    But, I love this movie as well. So many different things I could talk about… my favorite “vignette” is probably Colin Firth’s storyline. I think it’s very romantic how they end up with each other, and my favorite line in the whole movie is probably “just in cases”. Emma Thompson is so good. Mr Alan rickman was a very bad boy. I liked they got together at the end but you could tell it wasn’t quite the same. The Joni Mitchell song when Thompson is crying is so perfectly placed in the movie….
    - so some fun facts- Emma Thompson wore a fat suit because of how thin she actually was. The guy that went to Wisconsin - he had to come back in to film the part where he was being undressed in the window. He apparently didn’t accept the check he received for that scene because he enjoyed the (21) takes of him being undressed by gorgeous ladies so much lol. And the music video that Bill Nighy’s character was performing in was a reference to a few Robert Palmer music videos with scantily clad women and all - “addicted to love”, “simply irresistible” and “I didn’t mean to turn you on”. On a side note, I think we need to teach Marc some British slang and such lol. Btw, to watch muppets Christmas Carol - on Disney+ you’ll have to go to “extras” and choose the “full length version” instead of the theatrical. Believe me, it’s worth it….

      What can I say? You hit it out of the park this time with your comment. You KNOW how much we love trivia and behind the scenes, and this is both informative and helpful. One thing I'll piggyback off of from what you wrote is about the Joni Mitchell song, Both Sides Now. This movie introduced me to her and that song, and it's a favorite of mine to this day. Sadly every time I hear it I immediately think of Emma Thompson breaking down in her bedroom, but I still love it lol

    This is such a great movie! And like you said David, it's got a stellar cast. I keep forgetting that Liam Neeson is this one.
    It's been awhile since I've seen this one. So, it'll be a great re-watch on this Christmas day.
    Some other great Liam Neeson movies that I very highly recommend if you haven't seen them already: High Spirits(1988), Nell(1994), Before & After(1996), The Haunting(1999), Rob Roy(1995), and the Taken trilogy. That's just naming a few of my favorite Liam Neeson films.

I’ve seen so many people draw such strange conclusions and perceptions of various character arcs and storylines that I was genuinely baffled. Not to mention that not all the plot lines are meant to showcase a healthy form of love, but rather most of those that humans go through, many “haters” seem to miss that and think that this movie celebrates “toxic” relationships. An absolute misunderstanding imho.

      Probably the worst of this was when I watched the original Terminator, and because I was talking (shocker), I completely missed that we had jumped from the future back to current day. I spent the first 20 minutes of the movie thinking "the future" still looked like 1984. lol

    Hi David and Marc! Hope you had a wonderful Christmas holiday. What a great movie choice and reaction. And well done on the decorations and outfits! I missed this yesterday but what a nice treat for the day after.
    I love the way you make Marc's experience with these reactions special like a game where he gets to pick one or the other....or the Halloween/Spooky "Surprise B*tch" series where he doesn't know what he's going to watch. It's different and creative and makes it more fun to watch.
    Also..you're right about the different views of Alan Rickman. Depending on your age / generation..he's either in ones mind as Hans Gruber or Snape. Have you caught him in Sense & Sensibility as Colonel Brandon?) I love him in all iterations... What a talent..what a loss!
    Finally...I really like the red & green Christmas/Santa mug you were drinking out of David. I don't normally go for holiday or themed mugs...but I like mugs...and I really liked that one. Would love to know where you got it. Thanks in advance!!!
    Have a fantastic New Year!!!

    Merry Christmas cool dudes. Y'all bring a warm, sincere, and goofy energy to your videos, and it is much appreciated. I hope that energy spreads throughout your lives. Anyways, thank you. Also, regarding this film, I will just say the interconnecting storylines feel kinda clunky. So, because of that and the strange framing of characters who I'm not sure we're supposed to like, I ACTUALLY (pun intended) don't enjoy this film too much. But, to leave you on a positive note, I hope y'all create some great memories today!

    It's hard to believe that Emma Thompson started out doing Cambridge University footlights comedy with Stephen Fry and Hugh Lawrie. They then did some long forgotten late night comedy sketch shows (which I really liked) and then they have all gone on to be greats of the show-biz world. As for Emma, her acting has just gone from strength to strength and in my opinion, she just grows more and more beautiful.

    My bit of trivia for this movie is that, as you will have seen, it's meant to represent all the ways we love people (toxic, cheating, first love, friendship, families, friends, etc.) They did cut one story out, in the end, though they did film it and you can find the scenes on CZcams. The principal of the school's wife was dying. So it was... I don't know, end-of-life love? But also, they are a lesbian couple. Hence why cutting that storyline out leaves a pretty heteronormative movie.

    Definitely need to watch Muppets Chrietmas Carol, and Muppet Treasure Island. Absolute classics.
    I'm one of those ones that's on the fence. Most of the stories are done well enough that I'm interested in where they go, and what is attempted at being conveyed is. They were just extremely predictable and felt no real emotional payoff for 90% of them. Definitely some good acting, and hearty chuckles were had, though the "fat" or "ugly" jokes for people that were no where close to either got old fast. "They'll give them to you for free."😂. Not mad that I watched it, just left flat after.

Yes, Liam Neeson's son is played by Thomas Brodie-Sangster who is Jojen Reed in Game of Thrones, and he's also in the Maze Runner movies, Nanny McPhee, and about 50 other things. The cast is great. They give great performances and I love them in other things they do. I just don't care for this movie as much. But, to each their own.
