Films

my stream was OK, yes lots of blood and guts but the story line behind the film mad it for me


catching up on the Bourne films, first two watched the first being IMO much the better, will most probably watch the third instalment at the weekend
 
Another one for hacksaw ridge, watched it last night in HD with Missis T we both Thought it was a fantastic film. Bit like band of brothers where that interview people from the film at the end.
 
Manchester by the Sea at flicks last night, not for everyone but we enjoyed it, I like a quality gritty real life film, it's a tough story but very absorbing, superbly directed and acted by the whole cast. Casey Affleck in particular as lead does deserve any awards coming his way imo.

That's on my laptop ready to watch some time, really looking forward to it.
Essentially I've downloaded all the Oscar best film nominations 😉

Er "Debbie does Dallas" never recieved any Oscars.😁
 
Watched Gold today starring Mathew McConaughey, loosely based on a true story apparently, not bad, decent watch, probably give it 7 out of 10.
 
Not sure if I've mentioned this one before, it's one about American football but non nfl fans will love it as well.
It's called Undefeated, utterly magical film, think it won an Oscar as well, but not of the rogering variety 🙊
 
Just watched Moonlight, crikey, simply stunning. What a film, everything I was hoping it would be.

Thanks for that recommendation - we were thinking of going to see it - now definitely will.

And I must put in a word for Ernest and Ethel - the hand-drawn animation film based upon the illustrated book by Raymond Briggs that tells the story of his parents and his growing up. What a lovely and moving little film. A 5***** gem
