Seen a few mentions of films during the past couple of weeks, and find myself watching more. Thought it might be an idea if we use a single thread as a dumping ground, so if anyone can give recommendations and a brief sentence of the type of film and a score.
I've Netflix now so will be watching more. Watching light films when I can and last night, for the first time, watched Ferris Bueller's Day Off. Very silly , but enjoyable film, for such depressing times. Marks 7 out of 10.
I've made a start on Ray - the biopic of Ray Charles; looks promising so far.
I love Ferris Bueller's Day Off. 9/10 for me. Wish I could get my hands on some of the posters in his room.
During Covid lockdown, have also watched:
Chinatown
Day Of The Jackal
The French Connection
The Ipcress File
Hotel Mumbai
Shaun Of The Dead
Bridge On The River Kwai
The 39 Steps (our Mad and Robert Doughnut)
Bohemian Rhapsody
Rocketman
Casablanca
Stand By Me
The Sisters Brothers
The Negotiator
Zero Dark Thirty
Bad Times at the El Royale ( Tarantino ish)
Steel Country
Try and do all the Marvel films in order
Also watched Good Morning Vietnam.
Can't say I was that impressed with Bohemian Rhapsody and Rocketman. Light touch movies lacking in depth.

No, no, you can't. It's impossible, I swear it. I've looked into it. Listen to me, listen to me! There are things in there, there's a tea-bag growing! You haven't slept in sixty hours, you're in no state to tackle it. Wait till the morning, we'll go in together.
