I remember watching Oprah, when I was a kid, and Nora Ephron was on talking about ageing. She was so funny and shockingly explicit about her experience. And I remember the first time I saw When Harry Met Sally, when I was ten. I thought I'd hate it, I'm not a rom-com fan, and as … Continue reading Nora Ephron’s Best Movie that You’ve Never Heard Of

Deep Dive on Bogie
I guess you might say I've entered my Grandpa stage of life. After watching a bunch of Clark Gable movies (mostly filmed in the 1930s), I decided to move on to Humphrey Bogart.

I really want to talk about two of my favorite movies from childhood, and what it was like to re-watch them this past week. I took a journey. These two were on heavy … Continue reading Hello, Old Friend
Feel Big Feelings
There are times when the only thing for it is to sit down with some tissues, and tea, and blankets, and feel some feelings. That thought crossed my mind many times this past month, and there are two movies that I think reckon with that human need pretty thoroughly. In very different ways. So in … Continue reading Feel Big Feelings

Welcome to Thibeau on Film, a blog about movies and how I feel about them. And yes I am using the word film to be pretentious.
