“Prepare to die of delight!”
Who the fuck wouldn’t want to wake up to Michael Douglas
making you breakfast on Thanksgiving morning?
Part of what I love about this scene is that I can’t tell if he actually
kinda knows how to cook or if he has no goddamn clue what he’s doing. Mike hams this one up big time with his over
the shoulder egg shell tossing and midair French toast flipping ‘n shit. It’s so precious.
This is from Don’t Say
a Word and is the most memorable part of the film. It’s another Thanksgiving movie taking place
almost entirely on the day of.
Thanksgiving pictures are rare enough to begin with but even fewer take
place on the actual holiday.
Unfortunately this thriller from Gary Fleder (Kiss the Girls, Homefront) is terrible. I don’t have the energy to give it a full
review so here’s the gist: the plot makes no sense whatsoever and all of the
characters, except Mike’s, are poorly written and developed. It’s a little fun, especially in the
beginning when you have no idea what’s going on, but as things develop it gets
quite bad. The ending is almost
laughably appalling, almost.
But whatever, this one very brief scene is a nice
moment. Hope no one kidnaps your loved
one tomorrow forcing you to pry information out of a demented young woman’s
mind. When would you have time to eat
turkey and stuffing and all that shit? That
would really put a damper on the day. Well
anyway, happy Thanksgiving everyone!
