The review

The title sounds like a crash report. It isn't. Cecil Hepworth, 1900, sends an automobile at the camera, and the picture goes black. A house can watch it. The joke is the address, aimed at the person in the seat. A trick, not an accident. Nobody in our house was hurt, and the reel is not a record of anyone being hurt.

The jolt is the whole event. If a child jumps, you can say the dark is the punchline. I would not use it to talk about the road. There is no wreck to learn from, only a camera lined up as the target.

No house has filed a sentence for this yet.

Live Historic number 16. Yours can differ.

The glance

Industry and Household and Piety and Courage and Republic and Temperance and Stewardship are the thin ones.

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

This phone is set for a grown person, just me. Change the ages.

The Kissing Booth 3

28 instead of 16

The Kissing Booth 3 is still a comedy film, and it scores 28 instead of 16. What you gain is household: A friendship and a father are in the frame.

The eight

1
Industry
An automobile comes at the lens; no one's job is the point.
0
Household
No marriage, parent, or child is part of the blackout.
1
Piety
Nothing stops the car; the blackout is the joke, not a halt.
1
Courage
No one risks a body they would miss; the camera is the target.
1
Republic
No town or law is involved; the address is only to the seat.
2
Temperance
The rush at the seat is the product, and it ends in black.
5
Truth
The title sounds like a crash; the reel is a trick, not an accident.
2
Stewardship
What remains is a blackout gag, not a record of anyone hurt.

The Rocky Horror Picture Show

Funny if you already live in the costume. Not for kids, and not a little church.

The review

People dressed for it. A newly engaged couple breaks down and enters a castle where a scientist from another planet is building a man. The songs became a midnight ritual. The joke is innocence walking into appetite and staying. If you are already inside that joke, it is funny. It is adult, and it is not for children.

They arrived engaged. The night does not hand that back. Staying is the punchline. I would not play this where a kid can hear the songs and decide the castle is the more interesting life. A ritual you dress up for is still a ritual, and this one is organized around wanting, not around getting anybody home.
