"Manuel 5:21 Sun May 23 Yep I bought ""Old Man and a Gun"" on DVD and forgot all about it so it's lined up this evening! ""All is Lost"" is a great film. Like ""Castaway"" as a film with one character you require a great actor to keep you engaged. He has done some great films, ""Butch Cassidy/Sundance"", ""The Sting"", ""3 Days of the Condor"", ""All the Presidents Men"", ""The Last Castle"" ""Brubaker"", ""Spy Game"" - even ""Sneakers"" was fun! Must make a point that I can't believe that Nick Nolte is still alive! Certainly looks like he lived life to the full! Off on a tangent I couldn't believe to read that they are apparently doing a reboot of Planes, Trains and Automobiles with Will Smith and Kevin Hart --- Why oh Why?! Ok Smith and Hart have their talents but why even attempt something done so brilliantly by Steve Martin and the great John Candy?! There is by all accounts a 2 hour and 3 hour directors cut of the original lying around in a vault somewhere so why not just release that in it's entirety?"

"Two films I've seen lately and loved (which is FUCKING unusual these days) are I Care A Lot with the eminently fuckable Rosomund Pike, and Nobody which stars Bill Odenkirk, Saul from Better Call Saul. Both of them are totally entertaining, overacted bollocks which will leave you smiling. Exactly what we all need while living through this fucking horror film occurring outside our windows in real life."

After hearing good reviews on here now planning on to going to see Nomadland at the pictures with herself this Friday. Frances Mcdormand is a brilliant actress and you can’t beat watching a decent film on the big screen.

Zico - If you like Redford look up An old man & the gun..was his last ever acting film and based on a true story about a bank robber. Also 'All is lost' when he is at sea alone on a small boat during a big storm.

A few years old but I stumbled across on Amazon Prime A Wall in the Woods with Robert Redford and Nick Nolte. Easy going light hearted comedy which I thought highly enjoyable.

The Woman in the Window is worth watching despite the so called expert critics giving it low marks. Like a modern day Hitchcock suspense film. On Netflix.

"Hallerinthemorning 8:53 Sat May 1 A couple of reasons. The first is budget. They've gone for volume over quality over the past 2-3 years. But the main reason is their core market is 18-35-year-olds, who have short attention spans. They're snack movies. Fills some time but are forgettable. Also, a great character arc is very difficult to achieve, as many other films testify."

"Haller - I imagine Netflix are spending the production budget on casting, costume, location etc not script development. US films used to spend four or five times in percentage terms more on script redrafts and pre-production than European films, hence why the formula was often so much more polished. Saw County Lines yesterday - very dark but the director had Come and See as an influence so it figures. Key scene in Leigh-on-Sea for all you Essex Boys."

"Can someone who knows movies or the making process tell me why all Netflix films struggle with character development, story progression and endings? They jump straight in, you don't care for the characters and the endings are always abrupt. What are Netflix doing wrong."
