We were saying the same thing at work the other day. Do any of them think to watch it before they go on? They must, surely? It is baffling.Quote:

'The Bounty' (1984)
Mel Gibson takes on the difficult role of Fletcher Christian, with limited success. Not a great third attempt at the Bounty story, on the whole. I like the Howard/Brando effort myself. This one is still worth watching for Anthony Hopkin's mesmerising performance as Captain Bligh.
Whiplash

Definitely worth a watch, the drumming is out of this world, if my name was Len i'd give it a 10
Yesterday channel has music on all day. Mix of timescales.top of pops and other progs.
In the lead up to xmas, watched the Highly underrated 70's version of Scrooge starring Albert Finney in title role. A few songs in this but dont detract tbh. Many well known actors in this adaptation. Finney was very good actor indeed and oft forgotten now.

Was Phil Collins in that one?
The singing puts me off.
Just like with Phil Collins, really
Best version of Scrooge is your Alistair Sim effort by a country mile (non-colourised version, mind), but then I think we say that every year.

Just watched 'Support Your Local Sheriff' (1969) on Movies for Men, with James Garner, Jack Elam and Joan Hackett. A real treat, A comic western done to perfection. Garner was always great at this sort of role. The whole cast is terrific.

The Osterman Weekend
https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon....4L._SY445_.jpg
OK film, with less of the gratuitous sex and violence you would expect from Peckinpah.
The Big Sleep
https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon....ML._SY445_.jpg
Not as good as the Humphrey Bogart version, but Robert Mitcham makes a good fist of this. Directed by Michael Winner – so you know what to expect.
Heat and Dust
https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon....YL._SY445_.jpg
A Merchant Ivory production – gorgeous to look at, good acting and an interesting storyline. Julie Christie stars, so it can’t be all bad.
The Color Purple
https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon....7L._SY445_.jpg
Dir. Steven Spielberg and starring Danny Glover and Whoppi Goldeberg and Oprah Winfrey. Tough, moving but no-nonesense film set in post-emancipation America.
Nothing is as good as a Bogart original.
I don't have a favourite actor, but he is at the top of the list alongside Newman if I had one. :)

watch something violent I think(or hope) before I feel that way
Infamous (2006) stars Toby Jones, Sandra Bullock and Daniel Craig

Bloodwork , another Clint Eastwood offering! Kept me entertained
Independence Day: Resurgence (2016) not usually my cuppa, but a xmas pressie on blu ray so currently watching this. Not as bad as it was reviewed, but not as good as last one ...so far, and that says it all. Directed by Roland Emmerich and has a number of the original cast as old men now. Budget was 170m$ and it doubled that in boxoffice already so, a hit and a miss. Still a way to go and may improve... The boy saw it the other day and loved it:D

Well, its an extravaganza for lovers of the genre. Lacked a bit of a story tbh, and the acting stank for me, but sure the younger generation will love it. Door wide open for a pt3 as well.;)

Hi Ho, ...AWAY!!!
Great performance from Depp ,although Hammers role was a bit odd !!Quote:

wont be often he will be 7" shorter than his co star but it didnt bother him
