Let’s just say that Kenneth Branagh’s ‘Haunting in Vence’ has its POTO moments…

I've got a bone to pick with whoever wrote A Haunting in Venice.
"Based Upon" usually means at least basic details from the book plot are included.
Taking character names from Halloween Party and then writing Hercule Poirot fanfiction is not adapting a book into the movie.
If they had marketed it as a new Poirot mystery I could have enjoyed it but claiming it's based on Halloween Party and then changing literally every aspect of the story made me want to scream.
I'm going to fistfight Kenneth Branagh in a parking lot.

Oh! It is a poirot movie! I've been seeing the commercials only at the gym without audio and I haven't been following the news. Exciting for this old PBS head!

Poirot: if there is a ghost there is a soul if there is a soul there is god who made it, if we have a god then we have everything meaning the hall of justice. But I've seen the world, countless crimes, two wars, the bitter evil of human indifference and I conclude: no god, no ghosts, with respect no mediums who can speak to the dead---
*chandlier blows up and falls*
Joyce: you were saying.

Haunting in venice is so much better than I thought. I liked the other two Poirot movies enough, but this one is without a doubt my favourite.

còn ai nhớ tới mình không?
cũng lâu rồi mới vào lại đây, chắc hẳn vài tháng không đủ cảm hứng để viết ra những điều mình nghĩ như lúc trước. cũng vui vì ở đâu đó vẫn có người chờ đọc note mới của mình, đó, đọc đi nhé khốn!
vừa rồi có ra rạp coi 2 phim, một phim ok, một phim ko hay.
phim ok là Án Mạng Venice. vì mình thích Agatha Christie và các phim trước được chuyển thể từ truyện của nữ tác giả này. Kenneth Branagh vẫn vậy, một nét diễn đó tuy nhiên mình thấy ổng hợp, ngoài ra không biết ai ổn hơn. ổng làm đạo diễn luôn nên càng thấy ổng giỏi. phim u ám, hơi sợ do hiệu ứng âm thanh và mấy đoạn hù ma. truyện sẽ hay hơn vì có nhiều cái giải thích hơn, nhất là về thằng nhỏ già trước tuổi.
phim còn lại là Past Lives. thật sự mình rất cố gắng ngồi coi, bởi vì nó bị cũ và chán với mình. tình cảm của hai nhân vật cũng chưa thể sâu đậm đến mức day dứt như những bài review mình đọc được, cảm xúc chưa tới, cảm nhận người xem là mình thấy nó rất gượng và cố gắng gồng cho câu chuyện được dài ra chứ không thấy được điểm hay, có lẽ điểm ok nhất của phim là hình ảnh và sau này là mình biết phim được quay bằng film toàn bộ nên phân cảnh cuối cùng được nói là đắt giá, có thể vì nó tốn kèm chăng. Arthur thật đáng để đồng cảm. xin lỗi, hiệu ứng của Hàn Quốc nó ảnh hưởng dân mình nặng thật, những bài review trên mạng khiến mình lạc lõng một vài dây giữa dòng chảy đầy trắc ẩn của thế gian làm sao : )), mà cái đứa nào dịch tên phim ra tiếng Việt nghe nặng vậy, có đến mức như vậy đâu, đúng là cái phim nó gồng từ cái đầu đến cuối, đến tận bên ngoài haaa
thôi mình viêt cũng dài rồi, toàn chê ko nhỉ
chúc mọi người sức khỏe, hẹn ngày tái nạm

A Haunting In Venice
How do you find a suitable challenge for the world’s greatest detective? You force him to confront and consider the unexplainable.
To the rational, calculating mind, ghosts are a laughably naive concept. Such is the stance of the now-retired Hercule Poirot (Kenneth Branagh). As we encounter him in Venice, he seems content to live a solitary life of retirement, tending his garden and indulging in pastries, all while fending off constant streams of people desperate to employ his impeccable deductive skills. But when the closest thing he has to a friend, best-selling murder mystery author Ariadne Oliver (Tina Fey), implores him to try and debunk the work of a spiritual medium on Halloween night, it’s not long before he is thrust out of retirement and back on the case.
Poirot is certain he’ll make short work of Joyce Reynolds (Michelle Yeoh) and her sham seance’ as she claims to be in contact with the spirit of a girl who jumped to her death from the house’s balcony one year ago. But when someone is murdered with no immediate suspects and seemingly inexplicable occurrences begin filling the house, the master detective is forced to reckon with what is and is not impossible.
There are twists and reveals and jump scares a-plenty. But what A Haunting In Venice may lack in originality, Branagh more than compensates for with good old-fashioned style and a satisfying (albeit straightforward) execution of its story and characters.
The visuals are by far the film’s strongest suit so let’s start there. This is an absolutely gorgeous film to take in and I recommend seeing it in the largest format available. Is it in IMAX near you? It’s absolutely worth the premium format fees. This is a sumptuous movie to behold with deep shadows and a superbly established sense of place. The palazzo where the majority of the film takes place isn’t your typical haunted house locale but Branagh shoots it to be perfectly disarming. I’m not the first writer to make this comparison, but it bears repeating that Branagh clearly took more than a little inspiration from Orson Welles’ 1962 surreal film adaptation of Franz Kafka’s dystopian novel The Trial. Welles’ film uses unusual and disarming camera angles and depths of field that create a deep sense of unease and paranoia. It’s done in a way that I’ve rarely seen imitated, making Branagh’s point of inspiration all the more clear. It’s a lovely tribute to an underrated, underseen film that also serves to further underscore the psychic duress these characters, but especially Poirot, endures. It deserves to be seen as large as possible because much of the film’s sense of dread and oppression comes from seeing this house and its shadowy structures tower and overwhelm.
As for the substance beyond the style, Branagh and the film’s script are a bit more subtle. It’s a Poirot mystery so it shouldn’t shock anyone that a murder happens within the first 20 minutes, but to whom it happens may be a bit more of a surprise. Each surviving character has their own ultimately sympathetic (though some more than others) motivations and connections, but it’s seeing the measured ways in which Branagh shows the cracks in Poirot’s confidence and the roots of his dedication to logic and deduction that I found most endearing. Heroes are at their most interesting when they’re vulnerable in one way or another, so seeing this nigh-invincible mind forced to confront mysteries he may not be able to solve as he’s forced to consider concepts he’d long since evolved beyond is right where Poirot should be at this point in the series.
If there’s a complaint that lingers, it’s that a single casting choice stuck out like a sore thumb. This is due almost entirely to the character’s unmistakable similarity to another played by the same actor in a contemporary piece of entertainment. I’m trying to be vague in the hope that no one else will be immediately distracted as I was, but it took me out of the moment multiple times. I realize this is almost entirely on me and through no fault of the actor’s but there it is all the same.
All that said, I can’t recommend this enough, especially if you’re looking for a more old-fashioned haunted house mystery now that we’re on our way into this year’s Spooky Season.

Kenneth Branagh isn't adapting Piorot in any kind of order because he's a HOMOPHOBE

Gothic September Moods
So, the strangest thing happened when I went to a Big W (a store akin to Kmart here in Australia) back in September. As I was looking for more Lego to add to my possible collection, I couldn't help but notice certain decorations already out on display. It was so horrifying, I had to express my outrage to a few of my friends in our shared Discord group. I mean, it was only September!
I had wanted someone to come over and slap me to make sure it was all a horrid dream.
No, it wasn't the fact there were pumpkins, skeletons, witches and memorabilia from The Nightmare Before Christmas. In fact, I gladly welcome the infiltration of Halloween to Australia's shores - although I wish it could have arrived when I was a lot younger and could go out trick or treating.
No. It was CHRISTMAS decorations! Who in their right mind would start putting out Christmas decorations in SEPTEMBER? BEFORE EVEN HALLOWEEN HAS COME AND GONE?
It makes no sense!
It's sheer insanity!
And so, to celebrate this horrific event, Game Master and I took the opportunity to go watch a fitting film: The Haunting of Venice starring the likes of Michelle Yeoh and Kenneth Branagh as everyone's favourite Belgium detective (because, as we all know from the previous post, the best and most awesome detective in the world is one Sherlock Holmes).
Initially, of course, Game Master and I had intended to go grab some Lego brick burgers. Unfortunately, there were only available on select weekends. A novelty concept that would have been fun to try but, alas, Game Master works weekends and didn't really have time to spare.
As such, we enacted plan B! Go out and enjoy a night at the movies watching Kenneth Branagh ham it up with his terrible accent (it's debatable if he or Daniel Craig is the worst of the two), and try to solve the murder before movie came to a close.
To my shame, I didn't quite 'solve' it so much as remark how odd that the mother was never truly interrogated as much as the other possible suspects. And the odd push about finding a pot of honey in a linen closet. Truly, such strange details that if I'd bothered to put my thinking cap on would have led me to the actual solution.
In my defence, I was being creeped out by the voices of young girls giggling (which was great sound-mixing by the way because I, initially, didn't think it was from the movie itself but me hearing strange things). So, props to A Haunting in Venice for making even me doubt my own sanity even as I jumped at the occasional predictable jump scare.
Still, even with the movie, Game Master and I did stop by for some quick Japanese food. While I still felt we could have tried a slightly fancier restaurant for some quality grub, Game Master was keen to return to his university roots and go back to an old restaurant that provided some decent food for a fraction of the cost.
While I didn't want to begrudge him something comfortable, we were on a DATE. You would think that we might try something a little bit better than just a $10 meal.
Yes, I know the cost of living sucks, what with high interest rates (and as someone with a mortgage, I feel this terribly), and some sticky inflation, and I shouldn't be complaining but it only hammered home how differing views on a proper night out. It's almost like going out to McDonalds even though the both of us make a semi-livable wage.
We aren't poor broke students anymore. We can afford to treat ourselves a little!
But that may be because I wanted to try out some desserts from DOPA.
What can I say? I've a sweet tooth.
After the film was over, Game Master and I chatted for a while as we waited for my train. Given that it was a Thursday and a few of the shops were still open, we checked out a few toys and Game Master (much like the second date) bought himself a Gacha toy. Whether or not he considers it a souvenir of our time together is a mystery. What I do know is that he very much likes to collect quite a few featuring cats.
And so, my third date with Game Master came to an end.
Was it a good one?
It was decent. We didn't end up getting dessert (which I would have preferred) but I still enjoyed my time as we chatted about the economy. I provided a few solid ideas to Game Master on possible social media promotion for his workplace and he also ran through a few of his hopes for his future career.
But the real question, of course, is whether I can see a relationship between the two of us. And I feel like the answer is a no? We could be friends but I don't really feel anything romantic would sprout.
Who knows. Maybe I need to give it some time.
After all, they do say it takes 200 hours of regular contact to make a stranger into a good friend. So, maybe that's just it.
As I've said before, I'm not someone that would readily jump someone's bones. And the thought that I'm out here, looking for love, only makes the search harder and more fraught.
Still, on the plus side, I gave Game Master a new franchise to love: The Hercule Poirot films. He'd only ever heard of them before but he seems to have fallen in love with the whodunnit formula. So, yay for introducing a fellow to the art of deduction?
On a completely unrelated note, I CUT MY HAIR! I paid $70 and now my long hair is GONE!
It's now short! And I've got to get used to that fact! Even as I keep doing things that would make sense for a person with long hair, like trying to pull it out when I slip on a shirt or whipping my head forward so I can dry my long locks (which no longer exist!).
Dear readers, pray for this humble blogger as she mourns for her long lost hair.
That is all. That is the only real reason you should ever read this blog. Gaming? Psh. Dating life? Boorrring! Hair shenanigans. Yes. That's exactly what I know you guys are here for!
