Movie/film suggestions.

 

While this is of course a forum for the discussion of all things audio/hi-fi and music, pretty much all of us are also lovers of movies, the enjoyment of which is effected by the reproduction of the sound they contain (with the exception of silent movies wink).

I've been focused on David Lynch movies since his death, but with current events so much a part of our lives at the moment, I plan on re-watching a movie I’ve seen only once, and years ago. That movie is:

The Madness Of King George. Apropos, no?

I agree with so many that have been mentioned. One more vote for "The Lives of Others". A brilliant movie!

As far as acting is concerned. No one can top Elizabeth Taylor's transformation into a pathetic, codependent, alcoholic in "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf" She won the Oscar for it. And she deserved two for that performance.

And since we are on the subject. "Cat On a Hot Tin Roof". With Paul Newman, Elizabeth Taylor, and Burl Ives should get a mention.

Also, going way back.1933.  "Dinner at Eight" with all three Barrymores, Jean Harlow, Billie Burke, among many others, makes my list.

In the comedy category. "This is Spinal Tap" is as funny as it gets. And the pioneer  of the "Mocumentary" genre.
