The
patriarch of a wealthy and powerful family suddenly passes away
leaving his daughter with a shocking secret inheritance and threatens
to unravel and destroy the family
Thoughts.
The
previews made this look interesting, and it was. This was a slow burn
type of movie.
The
whole movie is a little weird, why wouldn't you be mad if your
brother got $20 million and you got $1 million and a man in a
bunker?!
I
wish there would have been more context throughout the movie, you got
the just along with bits and pieces but for the most part you had to
figure everything out and got a lot at the end.
CAUTION;
Major Spoiler Alert
In
2008, Archer Monroe, the patriarch of a wealthy and powerful
political family in New
York City, dies. His estate is divided among his family:
Catherine, his wife; William, his younger son, a politician running
for reelection; and Lauren, his elder daughter,
the Manhattandistrict
attorney. Family attorney Harold Thewlis privately shows Lauren
her father's posthumous video message he left her. In the video, he
says he has a secret to tell her that she must take to her grave. He
directs her to a secretunderground
bunkeron the family's
property. There she finds a captive man who identifies himself as
Morgan Warner, who says he has been held prisoner for 30 years.
Morgan
claims he was Archer's friend and business partner until one night,
while driving drunk, they killed a pedestrian. At Archer's
insistence, they covered up the crime before Archer took Morgan
prisoner to prevent his exposing the homicide. In the intervening
years, Archer treated Morgan like a confessor and admitted many
secrets. As proof, Morgan directs Lauren to where the pedestrian's
body is buried. Lauren also follows Morgan's clues and finds Archer's
longtime mistress, with whom he had a son, as well as evidence that
Archer paid bribes to aid his children being elected to public
office. Lauren is eventually convinced to free Morgan, and, believing
he was wronged, directs Harold to set up an offshore bank account and
charter a private jet so Morgan can disappear.
While
Morgan was asleep, Lauren took a sample of his fingerprints and sent
them for identification. The fingerprints are matched, and the file
sent to the Monroe house. Catherine sees the file and is terrified by
photos of Morgan, whom she identifies as "Carson", claiming
he is an "evil man". Lauren discovers Morgan's flight never
left and Harold has been murdered. By the time Lauren returns to the
Monroe house, Morgan has abducted Catherine and taken her to the
bunker. Carson subdues Lauren and reveals that thirty years ago, he
drugged and raped Catherine. Archer was taking Carson somewhere to
kill him when they hit the pedestrian; furthermore, Carson was
responsible for Archer's death, using the poison Archer had intended
to use on him. Lauren fights back and, during their struggle, Carson
claims he is Lauren's biological father before Catherine seizes his
gun and shoots him dead. Together, Lauren and Catherine pour gasoline
throughout the bunker and set it afire, destroying all evidence of
Carson's captivity.
This
arrived very quickly, I received and paid the invoice on 10/13, I
received a PM from Kim on 10/14 with tracking and received it on
10/18. Super quick shipping.
This
was a mystery de-stash that she was offering in the facebook group
“Wax Chronicles” which I'm not allowed in because I'm also a
vendor. My friend Jennifer asked her if I would be allowed, and she
sent me an invoice!
I do
wish the ones without vendor name obviously had the name, so I knew
who I was melting but that's ok. I'll still melt it
All
wax I have purchased, or it has been sent to me in swaps that I
do. I try and remember and disclose that information. I am never sent
anything for free from the vendors
These
are my opinions and mine only. This is not meant to influence your
purchase just to share with you my experiences with vendors
I
will never, won't ever and have never bashed another vendor. Sharing
my experiences both good and bad is not bashing.
I
do not believe in Ass wax. If the wax is going to throw it's going to
throw. No wax should need more than 2 weeks from pour date to fully
cure.
Yes,
I am a vendor. I have been purchasing wax and candles for as long as
I can remember. I do love to share my experiences. I enjoy wax and
candles and will continue to make my own and purchase, but I
will never review my own here
I
have a tendency to yawn when I get talking. Not sure why I just do!
I'm sorry in advance
Things
that drive me crazy.
No
vendor or scent name on labels. This is basically advertising and why
wouldn't you do it? Plus, if I get or send to someone else and
they or me want more, how do they know who to buy it from?
All
over prices. I have been noticing vendors lately have 2 ounces of one
shape for a certain price, then the same ounces of a different shape
for a different price. This is a huge turn off for me
Restocks
that only have certain quantities and the sell out right away. I have
no tolerance for that and just won't order
Vendors
who take a single scent and make it sound like a blend. I feel like
this is duping your customers and shouldn't be done. People who do
empty videos, who are also vendors, that review their own product.
Vendors
who get involved in other people's drama.
I
use the following warmers.

The
opinions I put here are my opinions/experiences only. I fully urge
each and every one of you to form your own opinions/experiences
on vendors for yourself by placing an order and getting a DE-stash.
Candles have many aspects to them and if I say I had a hard time
burning one candle that doesn't mean the rest from the same vendor
will be like that.
