What good movies have you seen lately?

Something The Lord Made: Set just after the depression in Nashville Tn, the story of Vanderbilt doctor Blaylock, who gets an African-American lab assistant who is an unemployed carpenter and between them perform the first open heart surgery, really uplifting and true story. HBO film.

Boondock Saints II: All Saints Day

Pirate Radio

Crazy Heart

Watched Crazy Heart this weekend and thought it was pretty good. A little depressing, but good.

YEAH!! That was a really good one. I came across it as a suggestion from Netflix, and it was really stinking good. I actually bought a copy of it off of Amazon.:thumb:

I thought it ran a little long and I wasn't a fan of Jeff Bridges' singing, but I liked it. :lol:

Last weekend I watched Unforgiven for the first time. If you look up "man" in the dictionary, Clint Eastwood's face is shown. I hate I waited so long to watch it.

 

I also watched I Love You, Man. Good comedy.

 

Yesterday afternoon I watched He's Just Not That In To You. Two hours I will not get back. The blond chick kept it interesting though.

Just watched this again last night for the first time in a while. It's an absolutely great movie, and Geoffrey Rush earned every bit of his Oscar for best actor in this one...he actually learned to play all of the piano pieces his character performs in this.

I bought a 4 disc set of Hitchcock movies & some old episodes from his TV show in the 1950's. Watched a few of those. The Chaney Vase and The Magicians Apprentice. Pretty interesting to watch these old shows/movies. The acting styles were considerably different than what we see today.

Just bought one of my favorite movies really cheap. Identity, starring John Cusack & Ray Liotta.

I had never seen the movie "Memento" until a few weeks ago. Still scratching my head! Wife and I watched "Law Abiding Citizen" and "Gone Baby Gone" both good movies.

 

 

I HATE Memento! To date, you're the first person to share anything close to my sentiments. :lol: And before anyone tries to convince me otherwise, I've given it a second chance, a third....and a fourth. The same results each time.

That was an awesome movie!

"I Am David" and "Hide and Seek". I can't believe I never watched "Hide and Seek" before. It has Robert DeNiro AND Dakota Fanning, two of my favorites! "I Am David" was a Netflix recommendation, and very, very good.

I bought an old western called "Hombre" for $3 last week and watched it for the first time. It was made in 1967 and starred Paul Newman and Richard Boone. Very good movie. I can't believe I hadn't already seen it because I am a big fan of Newman.

 

Some of the better movies are the old one's. I was talked into watching a movie a while back ("On Golden Pond") that I had always avoided because I thought it would be too soppy/tear jerking for my taste, but after viewing it I found it to be one of the best films I have ever seen.

 

Another good movie I bought on the cheap at the same store was "Paper Moon". I showed it to several friends who had never seen it and they loved it too. Tatem O'Neal won an Oscar for her role in the movie. I think she was about 10 years old at the time.
