Along_the_Wire Great choice
jonattonyeah Love the idea that John Hughes was proper fuckin with everyone on a deep level, yet still making boss kids films.
Dubman
How long was he stuck for you reckon? Learning the piano, becoming fluent in a new language, and being so fed up he tried to do himself multiple times…that seems like over a decade.
jonattonyeah Have a google, loads of theories on that one.
Groundhog day ain’t to bad either.
Phil-McRackin
@jonnatonyeah Haha…thank you for the warning. I’ll save it for a day when things are a bit more stable
Mr. Holland’s Opus if you were any kind of a band geek in high school.
A Walk in the Woods was wonderful for me back when I had a really bad case of flu in 2015.
I’m off for a run and then heading into work.
Not the name of a film, what I’m actually doing!
I skimmed through this out of morbid curiosity last night. Fucking hell. Not sure what to make of it to be honest.
mono-stereo I’m gonna have to have a look. Phil is responsible for one of the grimmest films I’ve ever seen - can’t remember the name of it, he will - the one with the spider…
Along_the_Wire That will be Possum. Grim doesn’t really begin to cover A Serbian Film though.
Along_the_Wire I wouldn’t bother with A Serbian Film TBH. It’s designed to shock, but not much else going on IMO.
Spiderman?
Possum
Millsy That’s the one, Millsy. Horrific film. Watched that on a plane flying on my own - not ideal.
Kells, only birds have this kind of movie I think, paired with Ben & Jerry’s and then possibly a full bottle of Semillon.
That said, I did binge watch Eastbound and Down and 30 Rock recently as I’m stuck indoors, both as funny as the first time.
The Bill Cosby-joke in the latter is especially funny these days. They knew….
I find psychological horror quite good; something engaging to take the mind off how you feel, but nothing jumping out of the shadows or big bangs… so for example Picnic at Hanging Rock.
Good Will Hunting
Sexy Beast is another film that is so easy to watch repeatedly. Short, fast paced, great performances and dialogue. Locations are good too
