What Did You Watch? 2025-01-21 (Tuesday)

I had a work meeting yesterday, and then had a nice afternoon nap, so I didn't get through as much watching yesterday:
soaps: DOOL - Mon's ep. Leo confronts Kerry, in front of Javi, about being Lady Whistleblower, and tricks Kerry into confessing - Javi kicks Kerry out, and Leo informs Abe about Kerry. One note: Kerry denies poisoning the cupcakes, so we're back to Hattie as being the most likely suspect for that... Hattie is rehired on the soap, but only on a probationary basis. They convince Chanel to do her exit scene, and Chanel literally slaps Joy during the scene, which means Joy is done feeling guilty. Bonnie accidentally falls down the open elevator shaft on set.
    GH - Tue's ep. Michael agrees to go with Carly's burn clinic in Europe, and then asks to see Sasha; Willow visits Michael first, but the pain becomes too much, and Portia has to resedate Michael, and Carly of course irrationally blames Willow. So Sasha never gets to see Michael. Willow continues to be nothing more than a Drew minion, seeming to have no backbone of her own. Sasha discusses pregnancy with Maxie... The scenes with Jane Elliot (Tracy Q.), Michael E. Knight (Martin Gray), and Fionla Hughes (Anna) bickering were pure gold! - In the end, Drew and Martin Grey convince Anna to have Tracy arrested, essentially for kidnapping Willow's kids - serves Tracy right!
I watched one movie off Tubi yesterday:
Little Black Lie (Tubi) - This 2019 flick is heavily, *heavily* "indie" - to be clear, this isn't a complement. IOW, what I am saying is that it was over-directed, with lots of "indie film-esque" sequences (some of which are clearly homages to French films), which has the one definite effect of making the film too long.
    The film is written and directed by one of its stars, Todd Theman.
    It's too bad too, as there's a decent enough premise in here - a woman (attractive redhead Stephanie Lynn) cheats on her fiance (Nick Ballard, a Lifetime regular) and, when caught, lies about it and says she was raped.
    That's bad enough, but then she *keeps* cheating with the guy (Theman, the writer/director) while pulling away from her fiance, continuing to lie about it, causing the fiance to become obsessed with catching, and punishing, the "rapist". All the while, the woman's bestie (Casey O'Keefe, another Lifetime regular) tries to talk her out of this madness.
    This mostly goes where you expect it to go, though taking far too long to get there (it clocks in at a full 2 hours). And the ending is pretty much what you would have expected.
    I wish they'd done more with less here...
