Cruella is a live action film that is a prequel to One Hundred and One Dalmatians as we see the story of a young girl named Estella who does not have a straight forward start in life. Wanting to be a fashion designer she competes with The Baroness and Cruella de Vil is released.
So we have the trailer for the latest live action make the bad person look good film from Disney with Cruella. The worst thing is I am such a huge fan of Emma Stone (the rest of the cast is impressive as well) and then I just think this looks utterly pointless. Cruella DeVille wanted to kill puppies to make coat, I mean how is that going to be turned around or even approached?
Although I guess we can just assume that it will all be because a man broke her heart like in Maleficent right?
I place myself firmly on the fence whether I will actually watch this or not, I mean the more interesting thing will be if it goes straight to Disney+ and how much you will have to pay to watch it.
Thank you to everyone who joined in for week two of Friday Fake Cinema Club with our film Outside the Wire starring Anthony Mackie and Damson Idris. This film got a very mixed reaction from our viewers and I find that to actually be a good thing, as it creates a very interesting discussion!
