The Great Muppet Caper (1981)

Just ok. But I’m always a fan of Henson, and this cast is all star. Kermit disguises himself as Piggy’s lawyer but she breaks out of prison before her trial.

Warm Bodies (2013)

There is both literal and metaphorical exploring as the world changes for both R (Zombie) and Julie (human). 🎶Hungry Heart🎶 is used in a pivotal falling in love scene. I like this film.

The Talented Mr Ripley (1999)

The film leans heavily into the Mediterranean summer atmosphere (beaches, outdoor cafés). No spoilers, but betrayal is central to the plot. Tommy Tommy Tommy.
