Girl on the Third Floor (2019)
Our Daughter Plays the Baby at the end of the Girl on the Third Floor Movie
The crew were great with us when we were asked to come for a couple of hours to film the final scene of the movie. We're not thrilled that her name is not correct in the end credits, but it doesn't take a way from this really unique memory.
The thing that really puzzled me was Don's appearance above the crib in the ceiling grate at the very last shot of the movie. Our family was really curious if Eileah (Liz's baby) is ok at the end of the movie. Was Don reaching through the grate just to wave, or does he have bad intentions?
To get some closure and interpretation, I messaged the director Travis Stevens and got this answer:
"I suppose the ending is open to interpretation but MY feeling is his appearance behind the grate is more symbolic, than reality. As long as they stay in the house his presence will have an influence on how Liz's daughter develops."
FUN FACT: The house at 207 Center Road, Frankfort, IL 60423 (which is said to be haunted) went up for sale last week on October 21, 2021 for $449k from $225k! It's totally remodeled, fresh coat of exterior paint, beautiful and modern on the inside. The question is...who'll buy it?
Anthony Bourdain: No Reservations (2005)
Better Than His CNN 'Parts Unknown' Show, An Improvement on his Food Network Show 'A Cook's Tour'
I'll make this short. 'No Reservations' is and was a better show than Bourdain's final show on CNN, before his death called, 'Parts Unknown.' No Reservations doesn't have the same quality in production as 'Parts Unknown,' which was more cinematic and breathtaking, but 'No Reservations' was lighter, more comedic, still informative, but better serving audiences. It was Bourdain at his best. 'Parts Unkown' get's heavy and depressing, 'No Reservations' is the perfect balance of investigative journalism and history lesson with comedy and playfulness.
The Tamarind Seed (1974)
Omar makes it all worth while
Omar Sharif is the best part of this movie, he has the most charming and interesting lines, he is great as Fyodor.
If you ever get lost during the film, his character will put you at ease.
The film reminded me of Rosebud, a film Peter O'Toole did about embassies, spies, and strange liaisons.
If you're wondering about the title, the tamarind seed is of importance to the Julie Andrew character when she and Omar are vacationing on the same island. The seed is very rare and it is a symbol of possibilities in my opinion. There's a lot of talk about ideologies, political games, conscience, and which side you're on.
It's worth watching this movie to learn some interesting things, most of the intrigue and pleasure comes from Omar's performance.
