What Did You Watch? 2024-12-18 (Wednesday)

Finished grading the final for the first of my two sections, and then did a little bit of finish up work on the lab class... With that, I got through:
soaps: Y&R - Mon's ep. Billy tells Filis[sic!] his Revenge! plot against Victor; Filis balks at getting involved because of her kids - I wasn't sure if she agreed to participate or not. Sharon gets hypnotized by Traci's boyfriend, and remembers that she didn't run Filis off the road. Ian Ward eavesdrops on a conversation between Claire and Mariah & Tessa, while Aunt Jordan remembers back to when Ian Ward reeled her in on his Revenge! plot.
    GH - Tue's ep. Bitch Carly wants Revenge!! on Drew (and Willow), but Jason tries to talk her down from that. Willow is working some public charity thing for Jordan, and of course Drew stops by to see her, witnessed by both a visibly displeased Jordan, and by Felicia. Nina, with Ava present, discusses Willow's upcoming potential divorce and custody case with lawyer Martin Gray. Curtis and Michael implement their plan to eject Drew from Aurora co., but Curtis gets it in writing from Michael up front. Despondent Josslyn discusses her grief with Trina, who understands the situation intimately because of Spencer's death.
    DOOL - Tue's ep. Mostly stuff about Cat and her family, or Chad with Jack and Jennifer, and I really don't care much. NuGabi is already starting to work on seducing JJ - this girl's libido won't quit!!
Broken Innocence (Tubi) - This 2024 effort is one of those flicks that gets you to wonder - if this film had had a budget, a better script, and better actors and better direction, would it have been a "good film"?
    The actress, Arianna Harris, who plays the lead teen victim I actually thought was mostly good here (and likely would have been better with some actual direction), and is a bit of a find. I also liked BJ Mezek who played the unflappable shrink.
    But I thought the actors who played the parents were not good, which was a problem, as the film sort of resolves around those two characters. And a lot of the supporting cast wasn't good either. (This was filmed in Kentucky, and felt like much of the cast were locals...)
    If nothing else, this film did get me to think/wonder - why don't more long-term incest victims snap and go homicidal?
    But, as it was, I was never clear on what the homicidal teen victim's plan actually was (did she have a plan?!), though I guess her plan falls apart at the end, anyway. Still, a better script would have made this clearer.
    Anyway, while I mostly liked the lead's performance, and the lead character's journey, overall I would say this was not a very good film, and probably could/should(?) have been a lot better.
