Rockers rule Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 2 hours ago, Anna B said: 'The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas' (David Thewlis, Asa Butterfield, Jack Scanion. 2008.) A truly mesmerising film about the Holocaust which manages to make the horror personal and all the more shocking for it. Awful for all the right reasons, but a brilliant film. (9/10) The book is the same, a little predictable but just as relevant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockers rule Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 The zone of interest. Finally watched all of it, without falling asleep Had to get up early, fathom out how to work the remote, & trawl something called 'apps' Unusual concept, arty type film that showed promise, and does. Spoilt only by a weak ending. 6/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PRESLEY Posted March 3 Share Posted March 3 Netflix. Father Stu, Mark Walhber over acting and my god does that man love himself, I wouldn't mind if he had the looks going on like Clooney, Errol Flynn, Padders, Hackey and Me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
echo beach Posted March 5 Share Posted March 5 Wild Rose. A gritty modern kitchen sink drama showing the realities of life for a young lass with two young children in Glasgow who has ambition to become a county singer. Heartwarming in the end. 8/10. echo.

hackey lad Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 Has anyone seen the Elvis film with Austin Butler ? Is it any good ? Me and the Good Lady are Elvis fans and settled down to watch it a while ago but turned it off after 40 minutes . Just couldn't get into it . Think it was how it was filmed . Just wondering if it was worth another try . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me and my son watched it at the cinema and loved it, Butler is great in the role, the first part is a bit frenetic as it tries to cram a lot of his early life into a short timespan, have some tissues ready at the end.

Reminded me of the glut of 'Kray twin' films that came out, been done before and done better. Keep safe out there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
