What Movie Are You Watching Today?

Just got thru watching The Shack. Very emotional movie, but excellent as well.

 

I'm starting to get hooked on Film Noir, B-movies, of the 1950's. I've learned how to ignore some of the shortcomings and enjoy the rest.

Hit and Run (1957)
Directed by Hugo Haas
Starring: Hugo Haas, Cleo Moore, and Vince Edwards ( ).

This one surprised me. All the actors were very good, especially Hugo Haas. The plot was Hitchcockian. Don't read a synopsis. All those online, seemed to have copied off of one original, which got a key point wrong. I thought it was very good.

Unfortunately I don't think this movie is available anywhere except one version on YouTube with terrible audio and video. But that didn't stop me from watching it.

 

I just finished watching Naked Lunch. I couldn't make a bit of sense of any of it.

 

I am so so into Empress Ki have watched all 51 hour long episodes 4 times now.

Set in the 1300 about the last emperor of the Yang Dynasty and his low born wife.

I've watched gunga din today for about the tenth time over the years, I still enjoy it. Here's a write-up about the film.
Gunga Din is a 1939 American adventure film from RKO Radio Pictures directed by George Stevens and starring Cary Grant, Victor McLaglen, and Douglas Fairbanks Jr., loosely based on the 1890 poem of the same name by Rudyard Kipling combined with elements of his 1888 short story collection Soldiers Three.

 

I watched on lastnight called 2:22. It was kind of confusing, but what I did figure out was pretty neat. I sometimes don't get a movie (understand it) so I look online for reviews and people's idea of what it was all about

here's the link, it's a free movie on Youtube: Let me know if you watch it Denise

 

I bet you'll get the "tekkie" connection Ken. That's what I failed to get

 

I watched it some weeks ago but I watch so many movies that the plot now escapes me.

 

He is an air-flight-controller that sees patterns no one else sees, literally in his vision. Can't say more, don't want to ruin it for anyone

 

Film noir and Bs from the 30s, 40s and 50s have helped me through many a sleepless night. I especially like movies with the younger stars before they became stars. I'll watch anything with Bogart or Gable.

 

I started the Jesse Stone TV series. Hadn't watched them again since they first started. I just felt they were so good the first time, I couldn't possibly enjoy them a 2nd time around but I am. Started by release date, so I got the Night Passage and Stone Cold mixed up. It's not a huge deal, but I don't know why they were listed that way on release date. Anyway, really enjoying them, although, not free. Their on Amazon Prime, but only the Stone Cold is free.

I don't like trailers or I'd put one here like I did with 2:22, but Jesse Stone is too good imo, and better to be a surprise if you haven't seen them for awhile, or, at all

 

"Impossible" that is based on a true story.

 

I saw that one advertised, thought about watching it. I got to watch Richard Jewell as Kathy Bates is just the best actress imo. It's a true story as well but I have to kind of go by how I'm feeling, some movies can be so good, but I can be left feeling kind of, well, in tears.

 

A good cry can be healthy.
