Guy Ritchie directs a reboot prequel of the TV series that rode the crest of the action spy mania of the 1960’s. The film is also set in the 1960’s with Henry Cavill and Armie Hammer reimagining the iconic roles of Napoleon Solo and Ilya Kuryakin. Alicia Vikander also stars as arguably a reimagining of The Girl from U.N.C.L.E. Find out where to stream it here.
We have previously discussed the TV series, find those episodes here: Part 1 Part 2
Our next topic will be Max Knight: Ultra Spy (2000). Australian B-movie featuring tons of cyberpunk flair and not a lot of actual spying. Available to watch for free on YouTube here.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
