"It's not over, it's just not yours anymore."

Given its full context, within the story and broader reality when it was released, I believe that's the most underrated devastating line in the history of #cinema.

Probably not for the relatively too few who've seen it, but because too many haven't.

#TheGirlWithAllTheGifts, 2016, #DirectedBy #ColmMcCarthy

Much more than a #horror #movie, a #politically and #socially relevant #film that's a still-timely work of #art.

@ElizabethLeeCo Love it!

Being a lifelong zombie movie fan: from Fulci to Romero to Boyle and back again, #TheGirlwithAlltheGifts is the best zombie movie ever made.

Gotta second the recommendation made by Mark Kermode today. If you enjoyed The Last Of Us then be sure to check out The Girl With All The Gifts.

I finally watched the movie version of The Girl With All The Gifts. I read the book when it came out and absolutely loved it. I prefer the book's ending because it makes me feel better, but I found the movie's ending to be more fitting, essentially switching the roles of Miss Justineau and Melanie. Now Melanie is the benevolent overlord and Miss Justineau imprisoned for safety reasons.

Sennia Nanua was amazing as Melanie. Just outstanding. The way she'd switch from playing a curious, innocent child to roaring and using force to keep the peace.

When I read the book I was fascinated with Melanie's relationship with Miss Justineau. She was so clearly in love and confused by these strong feelings that she did not know how to express because no one ever showed her how to love. She was earnest and innocent and scary.

The movie made me fascinated with Melanie and Dr. Caldwell's mutual relationship. Caldwell treated her an equal at times, and clearly respected Melanie's ability to think, but she was also absolutely uncaring about Melanie's personal fate outside of being used as an ingredient. It seemed she enjoyed talking to Melanie about topics we don't see her discuss with others. And Melanie, for her part, learns what she wants to learn, but she doesn't hesitate to put herself first.

"It's just not yours anymore" will stick with me.

Also: "Would you like a cat?"
"I already had one."

Je devrais dormir depuis 3/4 d'heure mais je regarde #TheGirlWithAllTheGifts (et alors que j'ai peur des zombies).

@djlink I stopped counting direct copies of fungal zombie activities compared to #thegirlwithallthegifts after I used up all my toes too.
Good #horror but it's a longer version of #TGWATG

Just watched #TheGirlWithAllTheGifts and wow, so good, so tense and so bleak, i was pleasantly surprised by it, especially for a zombie movie on netflix.

This might be very far from seasonal reading, but who doesn't love what are basically zombie children all year round?

I'm enjoying it so far anyway.

I saw the film a while back, thought it was pretty decent, but as with most adaptions the book is better.

I'm enjoying the author's interpretation/challenge of what it means to be human.

@Catarina Sim. Tens razão. Não conhecia.

Olha esta do #TheGirlWithAllTheGifts

O 1º episodio da 2ª season do #TheWhiteLotus da #HBOMax está muito bom. A banda sonora do Cristobal Tapia De Veer é espetacular! E neste episódio reaproveitou um bocadinho da composição que fez para o #TheGirlWithAllTheGifts

This is how a zombie apocalypse begins, 🤔 #thegirlwithallthegifts

Local comic store's book of the month is Infidel by Pornsak Pichetshote, Aaron Campbell, and José Villarrubia.

And also I had a hold on a digital book that was automatically added to my borrowed shelf and has to be read in the next couple of weeks.

And I'm still only about halfway through #SmokeGetsInYourEyes and #TheGirlWithAllTheGifts because apparently I am a slowpoke this month.

Better get going. :)
