Anchors Aweigh

The mouse is the souvenir, and the navy is just the costume that year felt like wearing.

The review

Two sailors on leave in Hollywood, and one of them helps a boy who wants into the navy. Gene Kelly dances with a cartoon mouse. Frank Sinatra sings. A child can watch most of it. I let ours stay for the mouse, and I was right about the part they repeated later. The mouse dance is the souvenir. The rest is 1945 dressing itself up as a sailor.

The navy here is a romance, not the work. Leave is not a ship. A boy wanting in is the nearest thing to a life, and even that gets sung past. Put it on when you want bright and no argument. Tell the child the dance is the souvenir. Don't tell them the service is a cartoon.

The glance

Industry and Piety and Courage and Temperance and Truth and Stewardship are the thin ones.

Does anyone here do a real job, and does that job matter?

West Side Story

51 instead of 38

West Side Story is still a musical film, and it scores 51 instead of 38. What you gain is truth: The last bodies are not a metaphor the editor rescues.

The eight

4
Industry
The sailors are on leave, so the navy is a romance and not the job.
5
Household
One sailor helps a boy who wants the navy, and that boy is a life.
2
Piety
Nothing in the leave, the songs, or the mouse asks a conscience to stop.
4
Courage
A boy wants the navy, a real risk the picture treats as romance.
5
Republic
The navy is what 1945 was selling, and the sailors are its pleasant face.
3
Temperance
The mouse dance is the souvenir, built so you want the next number.
4
Truth
Hollywood leave is not a lie about duty, and it is not the duty either.
3
Stewardship
What people kept is a dance with a cartoon mouse, not a ship.

The interesting part is the weapon they chose to trust. The battle is the invoice.

The review

The only grown sentence is the first one: tired men try to outsource the watching of the world, and the thing they built does not love the world. That is an old warning, and it is the right warning for a decade that kept handing judgment to a system.

Then Sokovia lifts and the warning becomes a set. Stay if you want the argument about who gets to build a peace. Do not stay for the peace itself. The film does not have one. It has a sequel.

The glance

Piety and Republic and Temperance and Stewardship are the thin ones.

Can conscience actually stop someone, or is reverence only in the shot so it can be mocked?

Doctor Strange

50 instead of 38

Doctor Strange is still a action film, and it scores 50 instead of 38. What you gain is industry: Surgery, then a discipline with hours and a library.
