Here's one for you to make you feel better, a nice love story..The Age Of Adeline.

Lord Knows, It's not a tear jerker is it? Love stories mostly have shit endings.

No not a tear jerker, just a good romp through time.

Hadn't heard of that film before today so thanks for that Sir, will give that one a go.

The Clouds of Sils Maria. Great performances but essentially 2 hours of an actress worrying about whether or not she should play a role. Where is the jeopardy as Hitchcock used to say. Should have known better than to let the wife pick.

Lord Knows, that film was a perfect one for a day tucked up in bed. Now going to watch About Time for a further dose of romance.

Thank you for suggesting it.

Saw one of the worst films I've ever seen last night. Warm Bodies. Absolutely terrible in every way.

Is that the rom-com with zombies?

Favourite bit:

 

[The Bear]

Watched Under The Skin last night. A very odd film. Very European sensibilities the way it was shot and the soundtrack.

It was a bit dull at times watching it but interesting to look back and try and understand it. Which I think I do now.

Jupiter Ascending. What the hells up with the sound on this film. Its either bloody deafening or you struggle to make out what they're saying.

Focus. I was only saying the other day, Will Smith's films are always worth watching. Well maybe not this one.

McFarland USA. Heartwarming feel good movie.

Watched Fury over the weekend. Pretty enjoyable if rather unspectacular war romp - nothing special but a decent watch. 7/10

 

[So Long Architect]

Watched Under The Skin last night. A very odd film. Very European sensibilities the way it was shot and the soundtrack.

It was a bit dull at times watching it but interesting to look back and try and understand it. Which I think I do now.

I quite liked it. Interesting idea and quite hypnotic, especially with that soundtrack. And I like that the director just had Scarlett Johanssen wondering around Glasgow without anyone knowing.

Bad Words - made me laugh a lot, though plenty of it was pretty cruel humour! A very amusing 90 minutes - the main character really is a total prick but it worked quite well IMO.

 

[The Bear]

That's sitting there waiting for me to watch.

I know John Candy and Joan Rivers are no longer with us, but I am on tenterhooks. I fucking LOVE Spaceballs. PLEASE let this be a sequel (but only if Rick Moranis is in it).
