A Night to Remember (1958) about the Titanic, super film.

[Copa]

Scarface. I’ve never seen it before and really enjoyed it.

I’ll have to watch the remake starring Al Pacino a few months from now to see how it compares to the original.

Pacino's Stan Boardman impression is superb.

Haven't watched a "grown up" film in years.  When I babysit g/daughter I let her choose a dvd.  If it's The Greatest Showman I think "please kill me now" although her interpretation of the relationship with the trapeze lady is sweet.  She explains very carefully to me that in the olden days black skinny-ed people and white skinny-ed people weren't allowed to hold hands.  My top four are Sing (Taaron Egerton's version of I'm Still Standing better than the original), Tangled (Mother Knows Best is excellent), Alladin and Coco.

Yes. It made me think that maybe it was a good thing that Matthew Broderick's Ferris Bueller revival turned out to be a couple of minutes for a car ad and nothing more.

Rear Window. One of my all-time favourites. Classic.

Mrs Shadow had a rubbish day yesterday and wanted something unchallenging and funny to watch.

Large glass of Sauvignon Blanc and this seemed to do the trick:

Movie magic this evening on Freeview; Passport to Pimlico, then Das Boot (the 1981 Wolfgang Petersen original).

[Liverpool Rover]

Last night I was going through the movie channels and ended watching Who Framed Roger Rabbit for the first time in years. It really isn’t a kids film.

[Futtocks]

Last night, I watched Excalibur for the first time in years. Still good, especially Nicol Williamson's portrayal of Merlin. The supporting cast is packed with British thespian talent.
