We watched Enola Holmes 2! And, in a rare surprise, we don't really agree on our opinion of the movie!

Moni's biggest issue (and it's a good one!) is that the film portrays historical events in a not so accurate way. This brings up a discussion on the line between historical accuracy and creative storytelling - how much can you change history to suit a story?

Here's what else we talked about:

where is the line between historical accuracy and creative fiction
the true story of the 1888 match girl strike
humanising Sherlock Holmes
Being your own person
the importance of community and not doing it alone
creating opportunities
police corruption (#ACAB)
diversity in role casting
women preparing to save women
moariarty reimagined

EnolaFuckinHolmes!
