Palatkik Posted July 20, 2020 Report Share Posted July 20, 2020 Days Of Heaven [1978] Only just got around to seeing this, following the recent passing of Ennio Morricone who created the music, this is perhaps an almost perfect movie by Terrence Malik, a visually stunning period love triangle drama set on an early 1900s Texas farm ranch, a movie that stands the test of time.

cavanami Posted July 21, 2020 Report Share Posted July 21, 2020 LBJ (2016) Lyndon B. Johnson aligns himself with John F. Kennedy, rises to the Presidency, and deals with the civil rights struggles of the 1960s. Stars:Woody Harrelson, Michael Stahl-David, Richard Jenkins Director:Rob Reiner Who played it very safe with this movie. A very brief overview of LBJ as he became president. The movie did not get in to the real LBJ person and zero on his involvement in the JFK murder. *** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Palatkik Posted July 25, 2020 Report Share Posted July 25, 2020 The Adderall Diaries [2015] Based on the real life memoir, tells the story of a writer with a penchant for Adderall who hits a low when his father resurfaces to straighten out some past childhood truths. There's two other background stories of a love interest and another of a well known Linux file programmers murder trial that makes the movie a little disjointed but overall passable viewing.

Palatkik Posted July 25, 2020 Report Share Posted July 25, 2020 Come As You Are [2019] Feel good US road trip movie that works for the most part, based on a true story and a Belgium movie remake where three guys with physical disabilities go to a brothel catering to special needs people to loose their virginity.

Coss Posted July 25, 2020 Report Share Posted July 25, 2020 5 hours ago, Palatkik said: physical disabilities go to a brothel catering to special needs people to loose their virginity. I once saw a guy, with burns all over his face and torso be received at a Thai knock shop - several of the pretties were competing, to help the guy out... Genuine concern, hearts of gold. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cavanami Posted July 26, 2020 Report Share Posted July 26, 2020 American Wisper (2020) In June 2016, a loving family was found shot to death at their suburban home in Northern New Jersey, and discovered by father and husband Josiah Wisper - a brash businessman who owned bars, restaurants and real estate in Harlem, New York. A hard hitting movie based on a true story. No happy ending. **** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
