Good Luck To You, Leo Grande trailer showcases Emma Thompson

By

What do you want out of life? For most people, the answer boils down to something that will make them happy. It’s the definition of happiness that changes from person to person. In the upcoming film, Good Luck To You, Leo Grande, Emma Thompson plays an older woman named Nancy whose life has been unfulfilled. Following the death of her husband, Nancy yearns for the kind of sexual experiences that she has only been able to fantasize about. For once in her life, Nancy wants to be happy. And that’s where a sex worker named Leo Grande (Daryl McCormack) enters the picture.

In the new trailer for Good Luck To You, Leo Grande, Nancy tells Leo all about the positions and activities that she wants to partake in, even if it makes her blush. Leo is notably OK with all of it, but he seems particularly skilled at finding ways for Nancy to become more comfortable with both herself and her desires.

“In Good Luck To You, Leo Grande, two-time Academy Award winner Emma Thompson (Love Actually) embodies the candor and apprehension of retired teacher Nancy Stokes, and newcomer Daryl McCormack (Peaky Blinders) personifies the charisma and compassion of sex worker Leo Grande. As Nancy embarks on a post-marital sexual awakening and Leo draws on his skills and charm, together they find a surprising human connection.”

Isabella Laughland also stars in the movie as Becky, with Charlotte Ware and Carina Lopes as a pair of waitresses. The cast appears to be deliberately small in order to focus on Nancy and Leo’s story.

Sansui’s 55-inch 4K OLED TV is stunningly affordable
Sansui 55-inch OLED TV (front view).

Sansui, a defunct Japanese brand that enjoyed an excellent reputation for its audio and video products throughout the 1970s and '80s, has been resurrected and is back in the U.S. with a 55-inch 4K OLED TV priced at $799 -- hundreds less than rival 55-inch OLED models from LG, Sony, and Samsung.

The official model number is S55VOUG, but it's simply known as the Sansui 55-inch OLED TV. Sansui says the TV has a 120Hz refresh rate, Dolby Vision (plus HDR10 and HLG), a built-in 2.1 channel, 40-watt sound system with an integrated subwoofer, and Dolby Atmos support.

Go big or go home: Samsung’s 98-inch TV is $1,000 off
Samsung 98-inch DU9000 4K TV.

Most people won't likely look at or need a TV over 75 or even 85 inches, but if you've ever wanted to go as truly large as you can, then this massive 98-inch TV from Samsung might be worth looking at. Samsung makes some of the best TVs on the market, so it's no surprise that the brand has pulled out such a huge screen for those who want it. That said, it is quite pricey, and while it usually goes for an eye-watering $4,000, you can actually get it for $3,000 directly from Samsung. While that is still isn't cheap, that $1,000 discount is quite significant.

Why you should buy the 98-inch Samsung Crystal UHD DU9000
Of course, because the Samsung Crystal UHD DU9000 is so expensive, it comes with all the bells and whistles you'd expect of such an excellent screen. For example, while most TVs tend to come with a 50-60Hz refresh rate, this one can handle up to 120Hz, which makes it not only excellent for solo gaming but also for couch co-op games with split screens. That said, it only runs a 4K resolution, which might be a problem for a screen that big if you're sitting close to it, although it does have a 4K AI upscaler, so at least you down have to throw away some of your older content.
