Great, classic movie. Hats off to Connery and Deniro for their performances.
went to see Dune Part 2 tonight. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a more stunning visual movie. So well done.
Watching American Conspiracy - The Octopus Murders on Netflix. Pretty interesting documentary of events in early 80’s suggesting foul play by DOJ, CIA, REAGAN Admin. Iran, Nicaragua, FBI, etc
Killing time watching Code 8 and Code 8 Part 2.
Lies, all lies.
This just dropped today on Netflix. So far it has been solid in its presentation.
Cabrini. Quite good. Wife bought tickets a few months ago and remembered yesterday afternoon. About an Italian nun out to save the world and fighting the patriarchy (early 20th century), setting up an orphanage for Italian immigrant kids in NYC. Very relavent today with some similar vitroil towards immigrants. There is a memorial to Mother Cabrini here in CO and now I know why
We went and saw Cabrini also. I knew a little about her, and now know a bit more. She was quite a lady.
Just finished watching The Bloody Hundredth on Apple+. This is related to its series called Masters of the Air. Just wow.
Just watched the first of two episodes of Paul Simon: In Restless Dreams.
I’ve been a huge fan of his since sometime in the early/mid 60’s, and enjoyed every minute of this film.
There are not many more gifted songwriter/singers/performers than Paul period. If you’re anywhere near old enough to remember his early music from the 60’s or have experienced any of the incredible stuff he’s done all along the way since, don’t miss this.
Edit to say: I can’t wait for the second drop next Sunday, but tomorrow night, I WILL be watching “The Graduate”. ![]()
This is solid. Halfway through it.
Elaine, Elaine, Elaine …
Watched this last night… the films of that period (and the method acting), were so remarkably different from the films of today.
Indeed. Check out: Butterflies Are Free
If you want something to really scramble your brain, check out “Mad God”. It’s a stop-motion sci-fi/horror film by Phil Tippett, one of the head visual effects folks on the original Star Wars and Jurassic Park films.
It’s…a trip.
I just finished “3 Body Problem” on Netflix.
Really enjoyed it.
Netflix - Turning Point - The Bomb and the Cold War. 8 episode documentary. I know I learned a lot of this stuff in a prior life, but it is a very good look at things as with Russia’s invasion of Ukraine we are entering another not so cold war.
