I'm with you, Stephen. I think
On Her Majesty's Secret Service is the best James Bond film, though I would like to spend a month watching them all in order to rank them from best to worst.
I am expecting
No Time To Die to be delivered today so we can watch it as a family – none of us have seen it at the cinema.
I watched Disney's latest film,
Encanto, last night and thought it was brilliant. It's visually very similar to Pixar's
Coco – a film set in Mexico; this is based in Colombia – and while that was more heartfelt and with a story about death and the afterlife, this is more fantastic (the title translates as enchantment or spell) in nature and tonally similar to
Moana and
Frozen.
Stephanie Beatriz, probably best known as Rosa Diaz in Brooklyn Nine-Nine, is very well cast as Mirabel Madrigal, a young woman who is unusual in the family's 'Casita' because she doesn't have any magical abilities and seems to be yearning for place and purpose. The other characters are very well-rounded and with well-matched voice actors, and the sentient Casita is a wonderful location.
If you have Disney+, I highly recommend this, particularly if you have a 4K TV.
