Friday WatchAlong: Mirzya! For Kirre’s Birthday! Starting at 3pm Chicago Time Right Here

HAPPY BIRTHDAY KIRRE!!!!!! I am so excited that, thanks to time zones, we all get to be the first ones to wish you, at midnight Finnish time which should be one hour into this movie (right? Did I do time zones correctly?).

Mirzya! It’s based on a tragic legend that the filmmakers think we all already know, so the whole love story and tragedy part should not surprise us. But also, so sexy! And Harsh, so beautiful! Oh, and it’s on Netflix.

  1. 6 year old thinks the heroine had plastic surgery because her skin is way different from all the other people in the movie.- I have no idea how he even heard about plastic surgery or if he knows what it is, but her skin DOES look plastic.

  2. Harsh’s humble stable boy t-shirts are all high fashion things he brought from home, right? They have to be really really expensive to look that casual.

  3. Oh yeah, she is totally suspicious already!!!! Which makes sense, I don’t know why he can recognize her immediately and we don’t think she will do the same.

  4. 9 year old’s two best friends are both girls. So now we have a huge joke about how he isn’t willing to shoot someone if they hurt either of their hands! New family joke arizes from movie trauma.

  5. I do like that the film gets rid of any dumb misunderstandings or winning over between the couple and just goes for magical connection.

  7. Whenever I hear about tattoo removal now, this is what I picture. Some doctor with a bellows and a stack of burning iron in their back office.

  8. It would be so horrible to have sweets be what triggers your childhood trauma. Although it might also explain how she is so skinny.
