I'm on a Roger Donaldson kick after watching Thirteen Days. His films definitely have a certain something that keeps you glued to the screen. Almost a subdued visceralism, like a diet Paul Verhoeven.

Next I'll be watching The Bounty, I know the score is legendary.


No way out is one of my all time favorites and one of the biggest mind blowing endings.

If your sticking with Costner, the untouchables is in my top 3 all time.

Haunting in Venice was fun enough if you enjoy a whodunnit

We need more American heroes today like JFK and RFK and Adlai Stevenson. Were they perfect? No. But someone out there thought they were worthy of being lionized.

Instead we're stuck with Bidens, Schiffs and AOCs.

They are all terrible.

“Mr X” was/is Fletcher Prouty.

And link to stone saying it’s mostly fiction?

Most of Stone's flicks are pure fiction. Great movies but pure fiction.

Stone has done a ton of work on the JFK assasination.

Bridge of Spies...fascinating look into the intelligence community.

Agreed, if you liked the previous films, you'll probably like this one as well. Nothing spectacular but a decent watch.

Damn, The Creator on Hulu was such a good watch. Really tugged at the ol’ heart strings.

Really? I wasn’t going to catch it because it looked like it was trying too hard. Maybe I’ll fire that one up.

It definitely did take itself seriously. And I’m sure the story was some sort of allegory for racism or the war in the Middle East or something but whatever.

It looked beautiful, the child actor who played Alphie did an incredible job, and I was intrigued by the world building.

Spoiler!

Agree with all of this. My takeaway was it was a shot at American Imperialism with a dose of white nationalism thrown in for good measure. Basically, it was a Hollywood film made in 2023.

But like you said, it was a gorgeous film with solid effects, and it largely kept my attention throughout. Alphie was the highlight, and I didn't expect the emotional hit at the end.

I thought this looked pretty good.

The Society of Snow on Netflix.

This is the best movie I have seen regarding the 1972 Andes plane crash carrying 45 people from Uruguay to Chile. I was very impressed with how they filmed it and also the attention to detail and authenticity. After watching it, I think it's much better than anything that Hollywood could have produced. Definitely worth your time and a good break from CGI superhero / fantasy bullshit.

Even though this trailer is with subtitles, I watched it dubbed in English and it was great.

We watched The Holdovers this past weekend because it was on our brand new Peacock subscription. I didn't have much desire to watch at first, but damn this movie was so sneaky good. Giamatti was excellent in this, and the progressive relationship with Mary and Angus just drew me in. For me it was easily the best movie of 2023.
