Coss Posted February 12, 2022 Report Share Posted February 12, 2022 Defiance 2008 Persecuted Jews in Nazi-occupied Eastern Europe escape into the Belorussian forests, where they join Russian resistance fighters, and endeavour to build a village, in order to protect themselves and about one thousand Jewish non-combatants. Quite engrossing - Daniel Craig, Liev Schreiber Should be required watching for millennials, and anyone who identifies as a freedom protestor.

Palatkik Posted February 12, 2022 Report Share Posted February 12, 2022 The Souvenir [2019] A young film student in the early '80s becomes romantically involved with a complicated and untrustworthy man.

Palatkik Posted March 6, 2022 Report Share Posted March 6, 2022 Flee [2021] The true story of a man, Amin, on the verge of marriage which compels him to reveal his hidden past for the first time.

Palatkik Posted March 6, 2022 Report Share Posted March 6, 2022 Licorice Pizza [2021] The story of Alana and Gary growing up, running around and going through their first relationship in the San Fernando Valley, early 1970's. Dreamy nostalgic rom-com comes across as authentic fiction with two good leads both in their first feature, some odd cameos distract, strictly for those not averse to the genre, nothing outstanding here.

Palatkik Posted March 6, 2022 Report Share Posted March 6, 2022 Being The Ricardos [2021] Biopic follows Lucy Ball and Desi Arnaz as they face a crisis that could end their careers and another that could end their marriage.

Palatkik Posted March 6, 2022 Report Share Posted March 6, 2022 Louis Theroux: Forbidden America [2022 TV Limited Series] Traveling the length and breadth of the United States, Louis meets an assortment of content creators who promote far-right views, self-destructive performers - and porn industry predators - all of whose work involves them promoting and enacting the most risqué, immoral and illegal behavior. Engaging three part documentary done in the usual absorbing Theroux way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palatkik Posted March 6, 2022 Report Share Posted March 6, 2022 The Eyes Of Tammy Faye [2021] A tiring look at the bizarre rise, fall and redemption of televangelist Tammy Faye Bakker, wife of fraudster Jim Bakker. Overly melodramatic biopic showcases the lead actor potential but this story is too weird for most, an indictment of Americas peculiar evangelical right and ironically Hollywood's need to cash in further retelling it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palatkik Posted March 6, 2022 Report Share Posted March 6, 2022 Mothering Sunday [2021] A maid living in post-World War I England secretly plans to meet with the man she sleeps with before he leaves to marry another woman. Wonderfully photographed period drama, great performances, with a touch more skin on show than normal for the genre. Worth seeing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
