New Beverly Classics: Mary Poppins

Published

on

This New Year’s weekend, Los Angeles’ own New Beverly Cinema decided to close out the year with 2 matinee screenings of the seminal Disney classic, Mary Poppins.

Released in 1964, the film stars Dick Van Dyke, David Tomlinson, Glynis Johns, and a young Julie Andrews in the title role that would win her an Oscar and catapult her to stardom. The film tells the story of the dysfunctional Banks family. With a workaholic father and and activist mother, the Banks children Jane and Michael are a rambunctious lot. As a result, Mr. Banks hires a nanny, Mary Poppins, who is a little more than she seems. Jane and Michael soon learn that Mary Poppins has certain magical abilities allowing them to jump into chalk drawings on the sidewalk, have tea parties on the ceiling, and even dance on the rooftops with a chorus of chimney sweeps.
The film was presented on an IB Technicolor 35mm film print struck during the time of its original release, which only added to the experience. The color and lighting were pristine, better than any Blu-Ray presentation. The film was one of the last to play at the New Beverly for some time, as the theater is scheduled to undergo some remodeling this month.

Bonjour sweet love patisserie review

Published

on

Rating: 7/10

Platform Crunchyroll

Bonjour Sweet Love Patisserie is a delightful treat for fans of romance and cooking anime. Set in the prestigious Fleurir Confectionary Academy, the story follows Sayuri Haruno, a kind-hearted girl who enrolls in the school’s special confectionery course. Surrounded by handsome male instructors and fellow students, Sayuri navigates the world of baking while developing sweet friendships and potential romances.

The anime shines in its charming character interactions, light-hearted humor, and visually appealing desserts that are sure to make your mouth water. However, with episodes running around five minutes each, the series sometimes feels a bit rushed. The plot, while enjoyable, is fairly predictable, sticking closely to typical reverse harem tropes. That said, its short length makes it a perfect watch for those looking for a quick and sweet anime fix.

While Bonjour Sweet Love Patisserie may not break new ground in the genre, it does what it sets out to do well: offering a sugary escape into a world of love, pastries, and heartwarming moments.
