That’s my favorite artist and song!

I love, love, love shows like this.
So interesting! I would buy up a Chateau like this in a heartbeat if I could. Reminds me of some of the pictures my dad’s godmother in Switzerland used to send.

I also love watching Fixer Upper, Joanna and Chip. Tiny Houses. They truly amaze me!

This is quite a lengthy documentary series which first began airing in June 2016.
It has 7 seasons, and 32 episodes in all.
So there’s much to see if you want to watch the entire series.

There are several DIY shows which come and go in the UK and one of the stand-out programs is called “Grand Designs” – a program which follows the construction of a house from foundations to the roof. It may sound ordinary but it really isn’t.

Are you serious?
I can’t wait for them to release more Chateau seasons.
We also have MANY shows like this. But I was drawn to the Chateau because of the amazing castle like home….and the beautiful couple doing it all.

There’s much one can read into this film – allegory or metaphor, but I wouldn’t consider it a horror film. 11 people all sat around a table feasting on what will become their last supper. The biblical last supper was attended by Jesus and his 12 disciples. Biblical connotations?

The diners’ appear to be eating several endangered species with gusto, and have no moral compunction over the terrible consequences such attitudes will ultimately cause. So Mankind sinks under the weight of his own sins – this being gluttony, and again, another biblical reference is exposed. In a visual metaphor we see the diners’ and their table drop to the lower floor. . .are there no limits that mankind will sink to for momentary satisfaction?

Maybe they are in purgatory forced to repeat their past sins before ascending to heaven?

The script writer definitely had something in mind when this was written, and even to the casual viewer it is clear that there is so much more going on here then what is seen on the surface. It’s the insatiable appetite – primarily – the need to use up all the Earth’s resources rather than protect them. Mankind is descending rather than ascending as He should be.

There is more, but I could go on forever.

I think you hit all areas that we discussed over this. Well….the thoughts the people in the group brought up to her and she shared with me. And I just realized DoDo bird me didn’t post my view. I thought for sure Gluttony ….that was the only thing I saw. But she brought up all the ideas she was discussing with other people….which was along the lines of what you wrote. Your very observant Jules.
I also felt….this short film was not “Horror” unless of course you are a devout religious being 🙃 It is labeled Horror which is why I didnt watch it right away. So again….agree with Jules on this.
But I also felt it was a nicely made short film.

I started watching a show which distracted me from posting my view here last night. I can’t stand getting caught up in a series. 😁

Sorry for your loss. Every death from Covid is tragic and more so when you knew the person on a personal level.

Sorry to read this Bailey. We wear our mask here in my household and do our best to keep others safe.

All this for one moment of national insanity.

And a warm blanket. Bless each and every one of them. I heard yesterday that at least 20,000 National Guard members are expected to be in Washington D.C. for President-elect Joe Biden’s inauguration, which is roughly four times more than the amount of troops currently in Afghanistan and Iraq combined.

Are these the National Guard gathered in the Capitol to keep our Congresspersons safe? If so, give ’em a blanket and pillow for me. 🙂

Its so mesmerizing and calming

Very touching Jules. Covid #’s are horrible over here too 😞

I love that picture, looks magically lovely.

Brave men, one man working to make things better, the other speaking out.

I would like to point out what I should have mentioned in the original – that both these gentlemen are immigrants.

It was scary what happened at the Capitol. I do believe these people should be punished to help preventing this from becoming something more. What is really disappointing is that Trump basically encouraged this.

There is another question that’s pertinent here:

Given that water makes things wet on contact – what gets wetter the more it dries?

In my view….Water IS wetness…by definition. It can’t be made “wet”…it is the source and prime example of wetness.

Now, I know i have simply spent too much time and effort on coming up with this idea…..sorry about that. 🙂
