Best Sellers

Michael Caine makes it all seem so natural and beautiful. And Plaza is like the cherry on top, she's always at her best.

Best Sellers won't disappoint much people. There's a captivating story, sometimes sentimental, sometimes funny, and some good actors. For the funny parts it was mostly due to the character of Ellen Wong, for the sentimental parts the difficult relarionship between Michael Caine and Aubrey Plaza. Ellen Wong had a smaller part but was funny. Michael Caine (already 88 years old) still has it. Audrey Plaza in a slightly different role that we're normally used of did okay. I can't say I was bored by this movie, on the contrary it's an engaging story easy to follow. Best Sellers isn't a fast paced action movie, it's rather slow, a lot of conversations, but they all add something to the emotional story.

Agency rights are truly a personal perspective and market gamble. When a publishing house releases a book and markets it, it's essentially endorsing the author's values. This mirrors the world of agency rights in the marketplace, where you're betting on the value and impact of a product and how well it aligns with consumers through the supply chain. In the movie, there isn't much emphasis on why Lucy Stanbridge took such a gamble on Harris Shaw or if she was simply left with no choice but to trust the contract her father left behind. However, as depicted in the trailer, it becomes evident that it's only through experiencing the ups and downs together that partners can build trust and have unwavering faith that Harris Shaw can indeed write a good book. The film, in essence, is a light-hearted take on the subject.

I have just finished watching this movie, and anything with Michael Caine in his winter years is worth seeing, his characters played over the decades has appealed to audiences across generations.

I didn't honestly feel this was time lost and enjoyed his latest performance, and all the character actors in the movie didn't disappoint,there have been several publisher movies over the past decades,with different themes,with the American ideal, all about the bucks, this particular work had that varnish sprinkled with pathos and humor.

Its a sweet movie full of charm and humour that was a delight to watch.

Pretty predictable but it takes nothing away from the enjoyment :)
