I got that from Amazon yesterday and watched it last night, brilliant film.
There's a documentary on the disc too which you must watch. But I was shocked to discover just how badly the Aborigines were treated. :mad:
I saw this first hand when I was over there. All the aussies just don't see it, bit like us 100 yrs ago.

'Yer give em an asse an they just rek eet, make a fire in the middle'

Course, fuckwit, thats how they used to live before you 'domesticated' them.
 
Through a Glass Darkly

A dark and bleak film depicting a young woman's descent into madness through the eyes of her loved ones. Strictly for fans of minimal, black and white, European existential dramas.
 
Paths of Glory.

Long live the kubrick god. I've seen them all now tho, shame really.

This is a classic anti-prat film, most say its anti war but it is actually anti prat.

Bit more Brideshead, a bit more Yes Minister, and Gosford Park. Clive Owen... :cool:

I finally got round to watching Gosford Park when I was off sick the other week ; I was sent it ages agon and thought it wouldn't be my cup of (camomile) tea , but I thought it was great.
That's what happens when you run out of things to watch and happy I am that it happened to me ; I always though Robert Altman was over-rated , but the casting is what really makes this film.

Nice generalization.

I don't know what Aussies you were hanging out with, but every friend and family member i have in Australia does, in fact, "see it," and thinks that the past and the current treatment of the Aborigines is something to be shocked by and ashamed of.
 
Last night i watched Constantine, Keanu Reeves horror/action flic...quite shite really. (as has been said by another...it's like the matrix without the cool bits)
 
Stand By Me - not as sentimental as I had remembered it was.

Finished off the superlative Brideshead Revisited. :cool:
 
Chronicles of Riddick

This film has some of the best scenery and imagery I've seen in ages.

It looks quite amazing. Up there with some of the best Tim Burton stuff.

Not the greatest film in the world but due to the way it looks its a very entertaining bit of escapisim.
 
Watched 'All about my Mother' last night so mango5 can practice her Spanish comprehension. Seen it before but it is good. :)
 
TROY-The Movie

We watched "TROY" last night at home. what a great movie.
Bradd Pitt is good as always.
Id love a night with him.mmmmm

After that we had one of our porn DVD's that finished the evening off nicely. :)
 
Rented Abagails Party and watched it this weekend, I had only previously seen snippets of it and had been dying to see the whole thing for ages, it lived up to expectations. What a hoot :D pitted olive anyone? :D
Continuing the 70s theme I'm going to watch The Towering Inferno tonight :)
 
Excellent Choice

I'm actually using Abigail's Party as a performance piece in my Theatre Studies A-Level, and I should really be doing an essay on it now, but I'm posting on urban instead.. But I'm a big fan. I'm pretty deep into the play at the moment, research etc, so it's nice to see normal people talk about it.

I'll be playing the part of Laurence (aka the heart attack victim).
 
I watched Basic last night, it has been hanging around in my video collection for ages but I never got round to it. The whole thing came as a bit of a surprise really. The last two films I've seen with Travolta were Get Shorty & Phenomenon neither of which left anything behind and were part of the reason that I steered around the celluloid accident which was Face/Off. It really is a twisty story and Connie Nielsen is as I always find her surprisingly sexy.
