"The man who made all this happen..."

About two years ago Chris Evans talked about the war in Ukraine on air and made Matthew Goode cry in his car (and nearly crash into a Rolls Royce!). Matthew got on the phone immediately and offered his collection of props and memorabilia from his work to the 'Auction for Ukraine' and 'it snowballed from there....'

I love the fact that Matthew wrote out the descriptions of everything he auctioned himself so the lots were even more personal. He rounded up his mates Colin Firth, Matt Smith, Hugh Bonneville and singer Jack Savoretti to offer a special lunch to Auction as well.

Just wanted to remember that there are still some good people in the world who are standing with Ukraine 🇺🇦

Matthew Goode is at 7:20 on this podcast. HILARIOUS!!!!

So yes we went to see the new horror movie Abigail earlier this week. I was like little ballerina vampire? sure why not?

the premises of the movie might sound a bit silly but it is actually pretty good! I really enjoyed it. I don't feel that it was a horror movie it is billed as such but I didn't feel it was I didn't find it scary and there was no real jumps or anything I kinda of felt it was a bit more of a dark comedy. It had more humor in it then scares in my opinion.

They also leaned into the silly idea of the movie itself with the characters commenting on how crazy and outlandish the situation is involving a little ballerina vampire.

Your basic story is this group of criminals are hired to kidnap this little girl and hold her for ransom for 24 hours they soon find out that not everything is as it seems when they are locked into this mansion and are set upon but a cute lil pink tutu wearing vampire as she prances around tearing them apart one by one.

the movie has some really nice practical and visual effects as well as some nice make-up work too.

The acting was good too from all involved especially from Alisha Weir who plays the title character of Abigail. I bet she had tons of fun working on this movie. but everyone did an amazing job.
