    ENGLISH FILM CLUB 2020 - 21 41st SEASON Massagno, LUX ART HOUSE 18.15 Friday, 11th December 2020 KNIVES OUT 2019 130 minutes Directed by Rian Johnson Starring: Daniel Craig, Chris Evans, Ana de Armas, Christopher Plummer, Jamie Lee Curtis Harlan Thrombey (Christopler Plummer) is a wildly successful mystery writer and he’s dead. His housekeeper Fran finds him with a slit throat and the knife still in his hand. It looks like suicide, but there are some questions. After all, who really slits their own throat? A couple of cops come to the Thrombey estate do a small investigation, just to make sure they’re not missing anything, and the film opens with their conversations with each of the Thrombey family members. Daughter Linda (Jamie Lee Curtis)) is a successful businesswoman with a shit husband named Richard and an awful son named Ransom (Chris Evans)). Son Walt runs the publishing side, but he’s been fighting a lot with dear old dad. Daughter-in-law Joni is deep into self-help but has been helping herself by ripping off the old man. Finally, there’s Marta Cabrera (Âna de Armas), the real heroine of “Knives Out” and Harlan’s most trusted confidante. Can she help solve the case? The case may have just been closed if not for the arrival of the famous detective Benoit Blanc, played by Daniel Craig, who spins a southern accent and oversized ego into something instantly memorable. Blanc was delivered a news story about the suicide and envelope of money. So someone thinks this is fishy.

  • Knives out by Campbell Dalglish, [email protected]
    Knives Out by Campbell Dalglish, [email protected] “Knives Out,” directed by Rian Johnson (Star Wars 2017) is a political satire inside a wealthy American family- The Thrombeys living in a museum-like country mansion that one might imagine in an Agatha Christy “who dunnit?” Except in this case it’s “whose donut?” as you will learn through the southern drawl of Detective Benoit Blanc played by Daniel Craig of James Bond fame. Right from the top we see who done it, and a cover up orchestrated by the dead grandfather (Christopher Plummer), known for playing bad guys because “The Devil is more interesting than God.” There is only one witness to this murder - a catatonic over the hill grandmother (K. Callan) whose three words are key to breaking the mystery. You don’t want to miss those words. Then there is the nerdy youngest member of the family Jacob Thornbey (Jaeden Martell from “IT”) who overhears the last words of Grandpa while “masterbating” in the bathroom. There are the family members, parents played by Don Johnson and Jamie Lee Curtis, sister Joni played by Toni Collette, brother Michael Shannon, and an outsider bad boy Ransom with a the biggest motivation to kill (he was left out of the will). For the detective, played with a clumsy like Colombo manner who stumbles upon the truths and the clues as though by accident as he searches for the hole in the hole in the hole of this donut. And that person happens to be the most innocent of the bunch, Marta Cabrera played in depth with a lot of heart by Ana de Armas who is at the very center of this mystery.
