Over 40 Victim of Fate
Recommend a Movie
Maybe we already have a thread in this vein, I didn't feel like searching to find out.
Easier to start a new one... Call me lazy...
Okay... So let's recommend movies. Preferably something maybe not everyone has seen, perhaps something slightly obscure. Old or new. Even a new release.
I'll start...
Eulogy
I saw this shortly after the death of my dad. Might have been the first time I laughed after that...

I ran across Solomon Kane on Netlfix a couple weeks ago. Was expecting a C- movie for a lazy weekend afternoon but it turned out to be a pretty good flickOriginally Posted by hjmick

Thanks for the tip. I like James Purefoy.

A Song is Born (1948)
Starring Danny Kaye, Virginia Mayo and Benny Goodman
From IMDBShy introverted Professor Hobart Frisbee (Danny Kaye) runs a musical
research institute. Along with his a team of music professors, among
them Professor Magenbruch (Benny Goodman), they are writing a musical
encyclopedia. Two window washers... make them aware that
there are several new musical styles - jazz,, swing, boogie woogie and
bebop. Arriving on the scene is Honey Swanson (Virginia Mayo), a night
club singer and the girlfriend of gangster Tony Crow (Steve Cochran).
She needs to hide out for awhile so that she can't be made to testify
against him.

Most of the movies I seem to watch when I have time, are on Netflix, which means old or horrible. I'll have to think about if I have seen anything there worth watching.
Ignored by the alt-right
And cross off anything financed by Canada. There's a reason Hollywood is not North of the border.

"Mozart's Sister"
It is a foreign film, all in French. But there are subtitles. Best to watch the movie two times. First to read the subtitles and get the story. Second to actually enjoy the film itself. The story and the actors' performances is/are much more enjoyable the second time where you don't have to pay 100% attention to the subtitles to know what they are saying. Unless you are fluent in French, of course.
If you want to see a badly done but oddly entertaining 'creature' movie for Halloween, 'Croczilla' is for you. As bad as an M. Night Shayamalan movie but with dubbed English over what is obviously Japanese. It was very much like a train-wreck but a staged one...

I'm sure you've all heard of this Brad Pitt/Anthony Hopkins movie, but might not have seen it. It is one of my favorite movies. Give it a try.
