Moving film set during WW2 and the present about finding a little girl spared the gas chambers by escaping the holding camp in France during a black period in France's Vichy period government. Lots of flashbacks used to tell the parallel stories. Kristen Scott Thomas is as gorgeous as ever and the actress who plays grown-up Sarah (Charlotte Poutrel) is quite stunning.

The Double (2011) - Russian spy intrigue in the US, with curious twists, and for a pleasant change, Richard Gere is handed a script for a character whic works well. An impressive film I'll need to watch again for all those bits that should have given an earlier clue.
Recommended.
'I love you man' (Rush are in it, what's not to like?)
The Adjustment Bureau
Really excellent SF love story, well acted by Matt Damon (showing his feminine side) and a stunning looking Emily Blunt playing the chased woman that fate has deemed he can't be with. Great ideas, well executed and not at all sentimental, just different.
mmm - Emily Blunt:drool:
American Graffiti
upgrading my old VHS collection to BR and here is the lastest pick up:

Awesome transfer, I would say reference level for a non animated or heavy CGI film. The sound come in 5.1 uncompressed ( first I've seen that type of label for sound 48Khz 24bit) but it leaped out of my speakers with ease.
Linky no worky, Dray.
An old fashioned film in its vibe but excellent, superb.Quote:

What a pleasant change not to be spoon fed the usual sickly and largely unoriginal fare so often served up by Disney.
Cant recommend it highly enough, whatever age you think you are. ;)
I remember watching that film as a kid and being completely blown away. It's proper old school anime with a great story. I've kept meaning to pick up a copy but never got round to it. Where did you get it from?
Hi Dave.
I got given it at Christmas along with a couple of other movies all on a USB stick.
The stick was the present.....i think :scratch:
Just watched 'Devil' by M Night Shalaman.
Excellent film imho and sees him returning to issues of theology, in a similar way to Signs, i.e the boggie man in the film is not really what the film is about but a device to let MNS pose questions and possible answers. Interesting and well worth watching.

I take it you enjoyed the film then Martin? Just asking as while our film tastes don't cross all the time, I do find they are broadly similar :)Quote:

So is it a goodun? Or at least worthy of consideration on BD :D
Cheers chap..
It's very good indeed, Mark, and what's more Ruth really enjoyed it last night (I watched it again with her) and she doesn't like SF.
It's based on a Philip K. Dick short story and he can do no wrong in my eyes. It's well created as I said earlier, great to watch and Emily Blunt is just incredibly alluring. A very good alternative love story with some ideas that will make you think for a while.
Cheers Martin, that's me sold at the prices I'm seeing :D
Thanks once again :)
Not at all sure what I'm going to make of this :scratch: Only bought it as it was so cheap & brand new, I reckon it was £2.24 :eyebrows:
The White Stripes – Under Great White Northern Lights
Well the stereo PCM track sounds superb :D Ah, I see it's 24/48 so I guess that kind of explains things :eyebrows:
Just watched the classic 'Time Machine' (1960: Rod Taylor, Yvette Mimieux etc..)
Far superior to the remake Andre.Quote:

Yes the Time Machine remake is surprisingly watchable.
Last night watched '44 Inch Chest' with Ray Winstone & Ian McShane. Disappointing and drags on way too long for what is, in effect, just a shaggy dog story. One question - How come Ian McShane looks exactly the same as he did in 'Lovejoy' despite the fact that twenty-five years have passed? Answers on a postcard...
Just watched .... 'There Be Dragons'
Sadly imho this is not up to the standard of The Mission or The Killing Fields or even the Korean movie Brotherhood which does this topic much better imho.
My advice worth watching but wait till its cheap or on Channel 4

Been catching up with "Billy Connolly's Route 66" tonight - for the last 18 years, a Billy Connolly "travel" programme has been my perfect antidote to a sh!t day. I'm not at all enamoured by fame or celebrity, but if I could have a beer with anyone in the public eye it would be Billy. (Well, assuming Angelina Jolie is otherwise engaged! ;))
The new Star Trek. Anyone watched whitechapel? I think this is really good.
Natalie;)
Fantastic Voyage (1966: Donald Pleasence, Raquel Welch... etc)
Very memorable for Raquel Welch in a wetsuit :eyebrows:Quote:

'Kill The Irishman' - based on a true story about an Irish gangster who takes on the Cleveland mob. 'The best gangster film since Goodfellas' proclaims the blurb on the box. Hmm... so better than Casino, Donnie Brasco and Carlito's Way then?
Well, no. It's still a good watch though if you are a Cosa Nostra groupie like me, and there's a great turn from Paul Sorvino as 'Fat' Tony Salerno.
Planet Earth (1974 )
