Cine TV Contest #142 - Movie That is Too Much

2 days ago

Hello CineTV

I have been relaxing on vacation recently and it is reminiscent of the movies that I asked you all to review for the previous contest. It is hard to get back from vacation and back to the reality of life so I am sorry to say that it has taken me a while to get back into the swing of things.

I want to thank everyone that took time to enter our previous contest! Good luck to you all and I hope to see you again in the next one.

Let's get to the winners!

First Place

The first place finisher was @borjan with the choice of Welcome to L.A., found here: https://peakd.com/hive-121744/@borjan/welcome-to-l-a-for

I know A LOT of movies from the 80s. This is one that I have never seen and your review intrigued me. (I usually don't like cursing in a review but I let that one slide.) Congrats!

Second Place

The second place finisher was @bisolamih with their selection of Miss GRanny, found here: https://peakd.com/hive-121744/@bisolamih/cinetv-contest-miss-granny-a

What an interesting choice! Not a movie that I had heard of but I appreciate your explanation.

Third Place

The third place finisher was @halima01 with Fatherhood, found here: https://peakd.com/hive-121744/@halima01/cinetv-contest-fatherhood

Welcome to our tribe. Thanks for your review! Congrats.

Congrats!

450 CINE COINS will be transferred to the winners.

Movie That is Too Much

Life can be overwhelming. Things can really get you down. A loss of a family member, a tough time at work, a relationship that goes sour, a friend that turns their back on you, the list of things that can get us down are endless.

For this contest, I want you to select a film that overwhelms you and is just a bit too much. What about the movie is that sticks out to you and makes it unbearable? Is the subject matter something that is so relatable to your own life struggles? How does the movie make you feel and how do you get out of that feeling? Are you drawn to movies that make you sad or overwhelmed?

This is kind of an abstract choice of topic so pick something that you think applies and make me understand why you chose it while delivering a great review. Those elements might land you some extra cine!

That's about it. I look forward to reading your choices! Thanks for being a part of the cinetv community.

If you have any questions or concerns feel free to tag me in the Discord channel (caulderfreeman). Enjoy this week's contest and good luck!
