i'm honestly kind of surprised that again as i'm taping there hasn't been a deal struck with cha cha real smooth because it is a crowd pleaser in the spirit of a movie like koda although i liked koda a little bit more than i liked this movie but it's the kind of movie that a distributor is going to want to snag because you really could draw in a big box office audience or a big streaming audience uh if that's the way that you decide to go with it i would really anticipate there's going to be a deal reached for this movie very soon perhaps they're waiting to see if it wins any of the big awards the audience award etc but it's a very sweet movie i genuinely cared for a lot of these characters i did have some third act issues with a few of the characters and how they were dealt with and and i think that there were some things set up earlier in the film that didn't quite pay off but again very easy to see why so many people were looking for this and especially when you look at it from the marketplace angle this was maybe the most mainstream film in the sundance film festival this year finally on this level is a horror film called piggy it comes from spain its spanish name is serdita and it comes from director carlota pareda it's about a bullied girl who faces a moral dilemma when her bullies are kidnapped i think it's going to find distribution because this is another one where it's an interesting moral dilemma you have these kids that are so mean to this girl but then when you see horrible things potentially about to befall them you're kind of in her shoes because you're thinking well should i root for these kids to be saved i mean they are still teenagers or do they deserve what they're getting it's something that really is wrestled with for the entire movie there's great performances throughout this does feel like something like a shudder movie i don't know if it would be something that would be a nationwide release but if if one of the streaming services can pick it up if you can really kind of micro market two horror fans i think it's one that that a lot of people are going to enjoy as it's discovered hopefully throughout this year before i move on to the next batch of movies i just wanted to thank today's sponsor athletic greens if you've been watching the channel recently you know that i've been talking about athletic greens a lot and it's not just because they are a sponsor but it's because it's something that i've enjoyed using every day for the past couple weeks i started taking athletic greens because it's got a lot of vitamins and probiotics things that my body really really likes but it's also because it helps me focus on my health it's something i'm doing a lot this year particularly my gut health athletic greens has so much stuff that helps me focus on that particular part of my body but it's not just specialized in something like gut health it also helps to support sleep quality and recovery mental clarity and alertness and it contains less than one gram of sugar no gmos no nasty chemicals or artificial anything while still tasting good i'd love
