Books on Film: Here’s the dramatic bookshelf-POV reveal of the book Unsolved Murders in the movie The Kennel Murder Case (1933)

In case you were wondering if this book has anything to do with the mysterious plot, then give yourself a gold star!

When detective Philo Vance (played by William Powell) tries to help the police solve a locked room mystery, he’s stumped at first.

Was it suicide or was it murder? And if it was murder, how did the murderer lock the door afterwards?

But later, Philo finds this same book in the bag of a man who’s gone missing …

He flips through the book and finds a scenario that matches the mystery he’s been trying to solve!

There’s a lot more that happens in this story, including romantic intrigue, more mysterious twists, and the canine antics of Philo’s super-cute dog Captain McCavish!

But this book is definitely one of the biggest keys that help to solve The Kennel Murder Case!

Deadpool and Wolverine is the single best portrayal of Wolverine in live action so far because it's the only one that really understands how best to depict him; a grouchy trainwreck of an extremely divorced dad who loves his dysfunctional shitshow of a family but also can't fucking stand them and is THIS close to driving the station wagon off a cliff during the drive to Sunday church with everyone inside in a fit of alcohol-fueled manic depression.

Watching the Red White and Royal Blue movie and god it is just so refreshing to have two adult men fall in love and have the stereotypically fairy tale romantic affair like a politically charged hallmark movie

Like absolutely nothing against teen queer coming of age stories, I adore them and they’re so important but it’s just so nice to have adults falling in love, adults with plans and motivations but still figuring things out a little, real actual adults with hobbies and passions and accomplishments, getting to just be queer and in love and they are the main characters within their own lives

And they’re in a rom-com, a full on rom-com with the cheesiness and the drama and the sweet, fluffy romance where everything is resolved in the end and it’s queer. It never shies away from the queerness, they make out, they have sex, they gaze lovingly into each other’s eyes, they make silly jokes and get to adore each other

It’s so refreshing, it’s so nice to have this type of story, this story for the adult queers, a comfort film like to Mamma Mia, that’s full of heart and enjoyment and fun, with queerness at the forefront
