7/20/2023 0 Comments High sirits 1988I like a bit of grimdark myself, but without any lighthearted, camp movies for contrast everything winds up being a long, humourless slog. Sometime in the 2000s it was decided that the goofiness of the ’80s had been an embarrassment and now everything had to be grimdark. Parker and I kicked this observation around as we watched it. This week we have High Spirits (1988), another bizarre relic of the 1980s when movies were allowed to be camp. Sounds like the perfect time to blog about dodgy movies. The good news is that I’ve signed a lease on a new place and ensconced myself like a tick in a dog’s ear, but the movers haven’t arrived yet so I’m stuck sitting on a hardwood floor with nothing to do. It’s been a quiet month for movie nights, but with a good reason - I’ve been in the process of moving.
