"the superbly gorgeous Nathalie Emmanuel (who I always thought the most beautiful woman on Game of Thrones, a show packed with beautiful women"
I couldn't remember which character she was so I looked her up and.... meh. Mid at best. And like all racial mutts, there's something off about her. And sorry world, but mixed-race romances don't work on screen, despite their being forced on us everywhere we look (name one that worked). The only odd part of this one is that the guy is white and the woman latte. Usually we're forced to see the black buck with the gorgeous white girl.
Aubrey Plaza is very beautiful (way way WAY more beautiful than Emmanuel) but she's an odd ball who can only ever succeed at playing oddballs.
Anyway, what do I care, I'm never going to see this movie, but I did very much enjoy your review.
Wellllll....I'd say we have very different tastes then, when it comes to women! What you call "racial mutts," I'd call an exotic blend of attractiveness maximized via disparate global bloodlines. Halle Berry was the most beautiful woman in Hollywood for a period (albeit via nose job); the above mentioned stunning Lonette McKee is half-Swedish/half black; I remember a mixed-race Miss Texas decades ago who may've been the most beautiful woman I've seen in my life. I could go on, but I've hit the Rule of Three before even circling back to Natalie Emmanuel.
I totally dig Aubrey Plaza, she knocks me right out despite being one of the most open demon-possessed witches in Hollywood; she's got legit screen presence and dramatic range if they'd only give her a chance: The indie films EMILY THE CRIMINAL and INGRID GO WEST are much different than the woman she's often typecast as, though still oddball-ish. Not sure she'll ever appear in a better movie than SAFETY NOT GUARANTEED, though, one of my fave flicks of the 21st Century. I suspect her career has peaked, but we'll see.
I'd rank Halle Berry as the most over-rated woman possibly of all time. So yeah, taste gonna be taste. I have no idea who Lonette McKee is. But that's ok, it just means we don't have to compete for her!
