Correcting People When They Say “Book of Revelations”: A Review
Longlegs (dir Osgood Perkins, 2024)
One of my pet peeves addressed, right on the silver screen
I don’t care if I’m a pedant, I wince every single time someone says “Book of Revelations.” Fun to see Longlegs protagonist Lee Harker (played by Maika Monroe) correct a fellow FBI agent in the script.
It is singular for a reason
The Greek origin of the word could mean an apocalypse or an unveiling, both of which are applicable to the contents of the book itself, not to mention the plot of Longlegs.
I'm sorry I'm like this
It's one of my most annoying qualities but I will correct you every time.
6.7 / 10
Getting pedant representation this specific on screen warmed my obnoxious little heart. Thanks Oz Perkins!
