Episode 481: Every time, it will be the same story
Dr Julia Hoffman is in the front parlor of the house of her fellow mad scientist, Eric Lang. She is on the telephone, asking the operator to connect her with the police. Even though she has lived in the Collinsport area for months now, she is still surprised that the sheriff’s office doesn’t have an emergency number.

Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery
Movies watched in 2022
Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery (2022, USA)
Director & Writer: Rian Johnson
Mini-review:
One of my most-awaited films of the year is finally here and it is as fantastic as I expected. I'm a sucker for whodunnits, and it's such a pleasure to see them being made with the expertise and love for the genre showcased here. I wouldn't say the final reveal is absolutely unpredictable, but the movie's structure and its other twists are constantly surprising, to the point where it doesn't really matter who the murderer is. The real fun here is in the way all the unexpected puzzle pieces fall into place and in the characters' interactions with each other. The ensemble cast is insanely good and it's obvious they loved playing these characters. Rian Johnson is a master at building these type of stories and it feels like he was given complete freedom for this movie and did every single thing he wanted. Knives Out was one of my favorite films of the last few years, and I'm pleased to say Glass Onion more than meets expectations and is just as good as the first one. Now it's time to wait for the next sequel, but I hope Johnson and Daniel Craig keep making these movies forever.

Zur Abwechslung treffen sich die Verdächtigen und die potentiellen Mordopfer auf einer einsamen, von der Außenwelt abgeschlossenen Insel. Außerdem Benoit Blanc, der aus Knives Out bekannte Meisterdetektiv mit dem merkwürdigen Akzent (rechts), der freut sich darüber (ebenso der Gatte), weil gerade, als er im Videochat mit Angela Lansbury und Stephen Sondheim jammerte, er brauche endlich einmal wieder einen aufregenden Fall, dieser auftaucht. Der unterfordert ihn natürlich letztlich auch, denn er ist durchsichtig wie eine gläserne Zwiebel. Aber lustig. Die Bestzungsliste mit (etwas beiläufig, aber schön geehrt) unseren beiden lieben verstorbenen Broadway-Legenden, Hamilton-Schnuffel, unserer Addams-Familiy-Grandma und Goldie Hawns Tochter lässt mich allerdings wieder denken, es hätte eigentlich ein Musical werden sollen.
