I have finally finished Barbra Streisand's 970 page memoir. Took me about 8 months as I read most of it on short CA Southwest Flights. AS I was reading I tried to watch her Movies as she had about a chapter for each Film Directed. It is amazing to me the Memory she has about Scenes and Music in the Movies. And all the people she worked with on them too. Had not seen Mirrors in Years but it plays out just like she describes in her Book. Lauren Bacall got bunch of recognition playing Rose's mother. Jeff Bridges one of my favorite Actors. Awesome chemistry. Barbra remembers all her Cast and Friends So Good. I am not really into Politics but so impressed with all the World Leaders she knows. This is a sweet Movie but my favorite is The Prince of Tides !! This is just a Guess but I am hoping maybe she will be the Presenter for Ralph Fiennes at Santa Barbara Intl Film Festival. In FEBUARY He is mentioned in her book several times.

Story of Triumph over Adversity Set in early 18th Century France. The Family hierarchy becomes emotionally unstable and Dies, He Wills his beloved Grape Vines to his strong-willed Wife (Bennett). Widowed she has relationship with her Distributor , but they don't marry. Napoleon Law does not approve of a Female running the Vineyards, but she outsmarts them besides creating a Award Winning Champagne still produced and distributed Worldwide Today.

Pop the🍾and get out the Hardware 🏆 Picture Actress Supporting Actor Director all Likely nominated for many Awards !! Especially Haley Bennett.

In Theatres NOW, Plan on stopping by the Store on way home to get some Champagne. 🍾

Ultimately. The Story line here is how people get sucked into CULTS. Sophie Rois plays HILDA a Cult Leader in Berlin who uses the Environmental World coming to an End Card to recruit new members. She gives an Jim Jonesian performance, scared me almost as much as the Wicked Witch of the West from THE WIZARD OF OZ.

Father Daughter Ben and Mazzy are the victims set up by Martin and Nina. The Movies climax is a little far fetched but still effective. The Berlin setting and psychological underground Music scene are grinding. Directed by Jordan Scott of the SCOTT Family has the Closed Caption run thru out so you can read along too as in German some scenes. If you want to Experience the Cult sacrifices I recommend going to See for Yourself, but stay away from the Cyanide tablets and Magic Mushrooms on the way.. I am Fan of Eric Bana (The Dry) and really impressed with Sadie Sink from (The Whale) she shines.
