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 
).
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?
Oh hell yes! Good pick, @slaw ! What a cast: Pacino, Lemmon, Spacey, Ed Harris, Alec Baldwin, Alan Arkin. . . . I haven't watched Pacific Heights recently, but that's another one I've watched more than once. Matthew Modine and Melanie Griffith with a particularly good performance by Michael Keaton. |
I stayed up late last night and watched what I thought was a real good movie on Tubi. Limbo (1999) was so good that maybe it was better than real good. David Strathairn and Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio played the leading roles, and Kris Kristofferson (who did not dominate the movie) played a smaller role that turned out to be critical to the movie. The movie lasted two hours but it kept me so engaged that it didn’t seem that long; the first hour set up the second hour, and in case anyone has not seen it and wants to, I will not spoil it, but it went somewhere different than where I thought it was going when it got started. I did a google and apparently Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio did her own singing, and she has a very nice voice. |
