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?

l watched ‘’Cussandbanter’’ in the last few days…..it was much longer than I remember but this time in full colour and hi-fi sound.

One great line that will live in infamy……’’Of all the Jack Daniel’s oval offices in the world, he had to walk back into……’’

I admit to liking films leaning towards the dark side at times. Jim Carrey's character in "Dark Crimes" was mesmerizing IMO. Filmed in B&W for added effect.

A Portland-based radio station has a segment called The Score. KQAC 88.9. Nothing but great movie music with excellent commentary by the host Edmund Stone. Airs Saturday and Sunday afternoons at 2pm.

You don't need to be local, I believe they are the largest classical streaming station. I listen all the time. Great programming.

To clarify br3098’s post, the Portland station is All Classical Radio, aka All Classical Portland, KQAC 89.9. I listen to it through TuneIn. And the programming is great. I especially enjoy the late night, early morning programming.

So many I could suggest. Will limit to just 3:

IT FOLLOWS: Not a big budget & no big names (though Maika Monroe has come on strong in subsequent films) -- but a brilliant & deeply observant SciFi concept here

UNDER THE SKIN: More brilliant sci-fi. The movie is stunning; so's the soundtrack.

BURNING: One of the most mysterious, haunting films ever. I still think about the ending.
