Not all movies are propaganda

I haven't seen most of the film that were touted at the Oscars, and most of them I probably wouldn't pay to see anyway (although I might watch them streaming   if nothing else was on).

I prefer escapism and comedy and light themes.

Two recent films that are fluff but an enjoyable way to spend your time are Bridget Jones and Paddington Bear 3.

I was surprised I liked Bridget Jones, since I wasn't that fond of the earlier ones. But in this is is funny. True, not G rated, but it is a comedy about mourning and readjusting to life and balancing one's own needs and the needs of one's family.


as for Paddington Bear, well it's Paddington.
Not as good as the second Paddington movie, but a nice waste of time. The themes are about finding family.
