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?

Interesting to watch "Quiz Show" again after all these years. John Turturro is great.

Totally.

Bad Education with a cast including Ray Romano, Hugh Jackman and Pam Gluckin was quite entertaining, well acted, and at times I found it to be hilarious.   Apparently it is based on actual events and relates a tale regarding "waste, fraud and abuse" in the New York public school system.

Watched "Spotlight" for the second since it was released. Really well done.

I couldn’t remember if I had seen that one or not so I did a google and yes, now I remember it.  That was a pretty good movie and having Mark Ruffalo and Michael Keaton was a plus.

I recently watched American Woman (2018) with Sienna Miller and Amy Madigan.  It was a well put together drama with good acting that evolved from a crime/tragedy and was set in a working class town with everyday people somewhere in Pa. (it was filmed in Brockton Pa. and I think I remember Bucks County being mentioned in the movie).  The script, characters and plot were believable/realistic and it kept me engaged from beginning to end.
