    I know you guys are being silly but, actually, that librarian suggesting she call the police after Matilda goes into graphic detail about something so dark (and violent) - which is incredibly out of character for the kid - is kind of, partially, the right thing to do? As a teacher, there are proper channels to go through but it's definitely true that what a child says/does is reflective of their home life (or an indicator of an isolated event, if the trauma took place outside the home). Like, if a kid talks that much about someone hurting another person and it's clearly enmeshed in their understanding of reality, that's the *biggest* red flag. Oftentimes, children do not come forward about situations like sexual abuse, for example, but if a kid suddenly starts writing or describing something that's clearly inappropriate for their age, it means something. Listening to kids is important.

    As a thespian, I’ve watched a lot of musicals, and I’ve performed in some. Matilda the musical has to be one of favorites, and I really love how it makes the relationship between her and Miss Honey better. The Big Friendly School is another reference to Dahl’s other work The BFG. My only critique was that they should’ve either kept Matilda’s older brother Michael in it or kept Mrs. Wormwood’s ball dancing subplot. And I really loved the finale “Still Holding My Hand” that I wished it was in the original stage musical.

      You can see hints of Mrs. W's ball dancing in the pictures on the wall in the house. And as much as I would have loved to see Michael too, I don't think he really... does that much? Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't his part made a lot smaller in the musical? He really only has the song Telly with Mr. Wormwood and when they cut that, maybe they felt they didn't need Michael.

    • @dcemerald70
      @dcemerald70 Před rokem +3

      @@lemontree666333 It is true that Michael’s part was reduced in the musical version. His main music number he’s involved in is “ Telly” with Mr. Wormwood. I would just figured they would have possibly expanded his character a little bit more like showing the comparison how Mr. and Mrs. Wormwood treat Michael versus Matilda. But I wonder if they scrapped his character from this version because how Mrs. Wormwood is adamant that she’s not having a baby when in fact she is pregnant. However there are cases when women don’t know that they are pregnant until they deliver their baby. And I do believe that they were possibly going to do the song “Loud” but then scrapped it.

      @QuibbleTrouble Před rokem +3

      @@dcemerald70 The main reason they cut both those things was time, and it was probably good that they did. One of the biggest complaints I've seen from people watching this that never saw the original musical is that it's long, and that's at 2 hours. If they left those things in it'd probably be an extra 20 minutes, and if they added to Michael even longer than that.

    @robertbrookes2000 Před rokem +36

    I wasn't happy with your initial reactions, but I'm glad you came around by the end.
    I think this film hit it out of the park, capturing the essence of the musical and the original book just right. The colour use throughout was excellent: Miracle having an ethereal setting as it's from the new-born perspective, Bruce initially being grim and dark until the explosion of support from his classmates, and Quiet giving a dreamlike perfect escape for Matilda in her mind. Great filmmaking throughout.
    And it did exactly what I wanted with a Roald Dahl adaptation, it wasn't afraid to be creepy and scary.
    That was always a fantastic element of his stories, so to have the Trunchbull be properly intimidating while also having some good comedic moments was great. I wonder if the line: 'We all get carried away sometimes, even me' was a sinister reference to her killing Magnus?
    And the casting was just perfect, they really got every talented child from the stage into this film and gave them even better choreography than the already great stage version.
    Hats of to Ellen Kane (choreographer), Tim Minchin (songwriter), Matthew Warchus (director) and Dennis Kelly (screenplay writer) for the amazing work both for the stage and screen iterations.

    4:08 Flashback to the book when they describe the vigorous scalp massage Mr Wormwood gives himself each morning with his hair tonic which is always accompanied with "deep grunts and heavy breathing and 'ah! that's the stuff! rub it right into the root'" which Matilda can hear in her room across the hall.

    I love this movie! I also love the original Matilda. Like there's different reasons why I love them both. I'm not comparing this to the original, I went into watching this movie when it came out thinking it probably going to based more off the stage musical and novel most likely. So yes, it's the same movie but it's told in a different way technically, I personally like that. The actors, actresses & the crew/everyone who made this movie possible did an amazing job. Would love to see you react to M3gan it's such a good horror movie, (and that's coming from someone who gets scared way too easily & normally doesn't care for horror films.)

    i HATE what they did with miracle (aka the opening song) mostly bc those babies are HORRIFYING but i also get it because the way it is in the musical, being the birthday party then going 5 years back (which isnt even stated sometimes) then going back to the birthday CAN be confusing but lavender was so ROBBED with her "barelina" solo (but i also just think it's funny) and also the child entertainer was robbed because there was no birthday party at all. but its mostly just that the song is mellowed down at the beginning to be "aw look at the newborn babies shhh dont disturb them" instead of "omg look at our child who is literally punching another kid hee's so cute!" i feel like it takes away from the opening also ignore how i just wrote a paragraph about miracle from matilda the musical. good day

And how she found out about her powers was taken out which doesn't make sense because she learns how to control it in the movie version.
