I'm guessing hebrew hammer.
It was a piss-take.

I Confess - early 1950s Hitchcock starring Montgomery Cliff, not in the first division of Hitchcock films but still better than most thrillers.

Once Upon a Time in Anatolia. The critics loved it but I fail to see what all the fuss was about.

Leave the gun. Take the cannoli.
28 days later, 28 weeks later, Zombieland and Moonrise Kingdom yesterday.....
Nanker Jnr is having mid season Walking Dead withdrawels!
By dinner time I needed Moonrise Kingdom.......although not Anderson's best and it turned into a bit of a mess by the end with too many cameo's with nothing to do and a plot that wasn't sure how to end.

Moonrise Kingdom proved that Anderson has now got a formula he intends to keep knocking out, rather than an actual talent that demands he develop it. What I did like about it is that the bit of New England it's set in looks remarkably like areas of north Ontario and Newfoundland that I have some personal acquaintance with.
I've just watched One of our Aircraft is Missing: RAF bomber crew parachute in France after their 'kite' is hit by flak, and are smuggled out of the country by Dutch peasants. Nothing you've not seen in many similar flicks before, but quite well done.
Also watched some of Jane Fonda in Barbarella, but the file cut out about half way through.

So many particulars. So many questions.

I've started watching Threads. Four things spring to mind.
1. This is brilliant. Really good drama. This is what British drama does best.
2. I am glad I was born when this came out, I would have been proper freaked if I had to watch this in context.
3. Really well done mixing the mundane of life and the geo-political.
4. I am glad nothing like this will ever happen in my life time. I mean I have possibly sixty years left. But Europe's pretty stable. No one has ever thought, um, that, um before...

Note - they never show this. Loach was at his best when working with Jim Allen i think. None of this waffly bulllshit you get with Laverty.,

The frustrating thing about it was that there's at least two or three points in the first 30/40 minutes of the film where I thought, "this could turn really good". But it just doesn't happen, it plods along at the same level all through the film. It's decent but not great.
I did like James Gandolfini being James Gandolfini - what else do you expect?
Still sulky?

Well, I finished Barbarella, via the magic of youtube.
And what an awful load of rubbish it was.
I seem to recall that it was directed by JF's then husband, Roger Vadim, who ripped her off bigtime to feed his gambling addiction.
No wonder she took a career break to fire ack-ack guns at B52s.

I looked for it for a while, got it off kg.
It really is good. Need to find a couple of hours now to watch the last one. Seems odd that they're different lengths, (90, 90, 77, 120) Was that how it was originally screened?
Wish I could get a better copy of The Spongers but the copy on kg has no seeders.
