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?

May have mentioned before .....watched "Rudderless" again. Enjoyed it as much or more than when it was first released. William H. Macy's directorial debut. Great cast, story, and music.

Just finished "Begin Again". A music oriented film with Keira Knightly and Mark Ruffalo. Highly enjoyable.

"Oh, Lucky Man" Alan Price's soundtrack is sublime, and he's a character in the film. A Lindsay Anderson film, Malcolm McDowell stars. If you find a copy, treasure it.

I enjoyed The Pledge, 2001 (starring Jack Nicholson and a great supporting cast which included Robin Wright, Benicio Del Toro, Dale Dickey, Aaron Eckhardt, Mickey Rourke, Sam Shepard, Harry Dean Stanton).

“O Lucky Man!” and Alan Price.

Everyone check out the original soundtrack LP on Warner Bros. Records. The recording is right up there with the best vocal scores from any film from the 70s. A great recording.

Alan Price keyboardist from “The Animals” and his own “Alan Price Set” went solo and wrote the lyrics. He performed (and on piano) O Lucky Man!, Poor People, Sell Sell, Justice, and Look Over Your Shoulder for the 1973 film, and composed all the instrumental music.
