Next up: Snow White.
This ... was technically a movie! Rachel Zegler and her angelic voice were made to be a Disney princess, but that's not quite enough to justify this movie's existence. And Gal Gadot seemed to not get the memo that this movie wasn't supposed to be camp.

And you sent me down another Wikipedia rabbit hole ... I didn't realize Oz Perkins was in Legally Blonde!

I literally laughed at some of them while watching.
I was hoping the multiple noms would split the EP vote, but alas.

Update: It is.
We look forward to a future Taylor Swift biopic copying this formula whilst covering her transition from country to pop.

Agreed! We watched it on YouTube, it's such an underratedly clutch place to watch older movies for free.
We enjoyed this Ronald Colman movie much more than "Random Harvest": iltbta.substack.com/p/random-har...

At the end of each post, we make our very own speech to The Academy and tell them how we really feel for nominating what we just watched.
Along the way, there are jokes, Wikipedia rabbit holes, and oblique references to current events.
So subscribe today! Basil wants you to.
