Yeah, so, I am watching this..,
Comments
Yes, I admit ALOT of movie watching.
With Friday's off and no where to go, am trying to get through as many as I can of the evenings, and sometimes a sneaky one in during the day weekends...all depending on what else is happening.
I dare say with having to homeschool the girls once the break is over (not confirmed but I highly suspect it will be so) my days of sooo many movies are numbered!
No superheroes for a while. I did watch Wonder Woman a few months back, she was disappointing. A bit wooden. Overal the film was enjoyable.
Though I did introduce the girls to Ant Man, then Ant Man and the Wasp which they loved as much as I did. Got some you think I should add to the list?
Wild Rose stars a hugely talented Jesse Buckley and Film Stars Don't Die in Liverpool covers the final years in the life of actress Gloris Grahame.
Finding Your Feet which features a great cast of U.K. actors is exactly as the tagline says and Wind River is a 10 / 10 rated film. All the people that I know that have seen this film do nothing but rave about it.,
The Baptiste character appeared earlier in The Missing television series as well. The first series was very good but the latest second series that I finished watching tonight was superb and the best drama television series by far that I have seen for a long time.
I am looking foeward to seeing the second series of Baptise, which has been given the green light to produce.
The Red Shoes
Was on the telly a few days back and we caught the end of it.
The girls took a shine to it, and wanted to watch the whole thing.
Warnings and all about the length they still wanted to see it.
The little one lost interest now and again, but the older one really seemed to enjoy it.
Needless to say the Red Shoes ballet sequence was a real hit with both of them.
"Mummy, she is really beautiful isn't she..." That's my girl! Charley really seems to be taking to the older films, which I wont lie, fills my heart with much joy!
Whispering Smith ( 1948 ). A enjoyable beautifully shot western with a top notch cast including a great villain played by Frank Faylen who is seen above.
Mildred Pierce ( 2011 ). Five part miniseries adapted from a 1941 novel by James M. Cain. His novel was previously adapted as a film and released in1945, also titled Mildred Pierce with Joan Crawford playing the title role. I had never seen the earlier film before, which probably helped my enjoyment with the viewing the film with knowing little about the plot of this series. Kate Winslet, Guy Pearce and the whole cast were excellent and the singing of coloraturo soprano Sumi Jo, who dubs the voice of Evan Rachel Wood is superb.
A Quiet Place ( 2018 ). Not the film genre that I am normally interested in viewing, but some excellent word of mouth that I received on top of some good reviews encouraged me to give it a go. It was exciting and engossing and can't wait to see part 11.
Gurrumul
Masterfully told, beautiful to look at. He had an amazing voice.
I found this so interesting, highly recommended to anyone.
The bit about his duet with Sting was great.
Just a great big WOW from me.
As for Quiet Place, I dont like horror, but I am yet to hear a bad word about this film. On a scale of 1 to 10, how bad is it on the horror spectrum? Now keep in mind, I have been permanently scarred by the dinner table scene from the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre, hence Ves does not handle horror well!
From Here to Eternity...
Wow. I was glued to the tv from start to finish. Superb cast, each one was brilliant in their role.
I have always loved Deborah Kerr, and no wonder with her performance in this one.
Lancaster was electric! Couldn't take my eyes off him!
Pretty close to perfection for me. Wowee...what an amazing film.

The Grand Budapest Hotel
I have seen chunks of the film over the years, but never have I been able to enjoy it from start to finish, uninterrupted (the joys of small children!)
I am a fan of Anderson's work, so always try to give it a go.
Fiennes is always a bit hit or miss for me, but thoroughly enjoyed him in this.
Abraham, Brody and Defoe never disappoint. Sometimes I think poor Defoe was made to play characters like this.
A thoroughly enjoyable end to the week for me!
Yeah, guess it’s a B-studio product, but it was entertaining.

Very good movie, great looking poster, Argentinian.
Lee J. Cobb shines as well.

Mystery Road series 2
Killing Eve series 3
Both engrossing series.
Was on tv the other night so gave it a go.
I dunno what I was expecting, but left thoroughly depressed.
A very troubled man it seems.
Perhaps that's why his cartoons are so good.
For now - Season 2 of Star Trek Discovery...
William Kelly's War.
Hmmm, I am a bit perplexed by this one.
The acting isn't great. The story itself has promise.
Two stories almost parallel - Bothers and a cousin go to War, and back home we follow their families journey awaiting their return (with some bushrangers mixed in).
And finally the two converge when the brothers return home.
We (Australia) seem to be obsessed with telling these stories, and there have been some great ones. This one not so much.
Red Billabong
Not the worst thing I have seen.
As its not usually the kind of thing I watch, wasn't expecting much and wasn't disappointed.
First half was painful...second half was a big improvement.
Nothing you haven't seen in the bazillion other monster movies out there.
Broken Hill
Thought I had seen this before, and indeed I had.
Young man working on the family station has big dreams, but held back by the his surrounds and family expectations.
Better than you would think, but nothing earth shattering here.
Charlie's Country
What a face! You can see he has lived a life!
Wonderful movie giving insight into how the older generation of Aboriginals, in particular Charlie, sees the intrusion of the white man on their country and way of life.
Highly recommend you watch if you haven't seen.
Gulpilil is sublime as usual.
