Pretty good film. David Lynch has a cameo as director John Ford that's outstanding. IMHO he should be nominated for an academy award for best supporting actor even though it's a small role & 1 scene. It is a key scene though. I've read that Spielberg asked Laura Dern to set him up with Lynch for the role. Turns out they hit it off as both are huge fans of Ford's work. Spielberg was a fan of Lynch's work for years.

Had very high hopes for this and it delivered. Love Andrew’s work and this type of territory is extremely up my alley.

Haven't heard about that one, brett, will have to check it out.

Realized I forgot to post about The Fabelmans which I liked a hell of a lot. "Monument Valley" should have been the soundtrack.

Not bad. Mindless entertainment but well done. Might make you think about hopping on a plane next trip.

If you have a sustained and deep ability to suspend disbelief and if you like Idris Elba, you will probably enjoy a good deal of the new Luther movie on Netflix. I couldn't sustain that suspension until the end and I find it difficult to believe anyone could; it's just absurd, and more than that, boring. But until then it's entertaining enough, especially Andy Serkis's chilling villain. More overtones of Bond than a serious police procedural or spy thriller and on that semi-cartoonish basis it sort of works.

80 for Brady - Very cute. An enjoyable 90 minutes if you don't expect too much. The 4 lead actresses are unsurprisingly terrific. But, doing my best to avoid spoilers, did it really have to take place in that city and have that illness be a fairly major plot point? Man, that was hard in the way that only being unexpectedly blindsided by the very heavy during a very light entertainment can cause. Even so, I enjoyed it but I expect my experience of it will differ from yours.

"unexpectedly blindsided" Sheesh. My apologies.
