The Water Man

 

One, two, three, four

 Close your window, lock your door

'Cause you never know for sure
Who it is he's coming for

Five, six, seven, eight
By time it's getting late
All that you can do is wait
The water man decides your fate

Nine, ten, eleven too
Not a thing that you can do
When the water man comes through

and his eyes are set on you

This is a story that tells people should we wait all our lives for love, or should we just deal with the here and now and love them with the time we have? A fable tells about a man who did just that wished for life eternal following a sad life of misery and woe. This is a good story done by Star Wars alum David Oyelowo in his directorial debut, 7 out of 10.

cruella

Cruella (2021) - IMDb 

 Cruella de Vil: From the very beginning, I realized I saw the world differently than everyone else. That didn't sit well with some people. But I wasn't for everyone. I guess they were all scared... that I'd be... a psycho. 

The De Vil in black and white is back with an origin story that is kind of well lopsided. Horace and Jasper are back (a.k.a skinny and fatso). It talked about the darling family, but it never quite got into how we see cruella today as the mean and arrogant type. 8 out of 10.
