Talk About Movies: Part 4
Somehow threads merged, so here's part 4 of our ongoing movie discussion.
Artistically, nearly EVERYTHING he's done is supreme and elite...

I come from an area were people laugh super out loud and make comments (not so much anymore ),and don't see that anymore outside of NYC ..

God, living in LATAM for the past half decade, I definitely miss the quietness found in North American cinemas - and have found myself giving the stink eye to peeps/literally having to tell peeps to shut the eff up (much) more often that I would like to... 😊
Just a couple trivial bits: Among the lead roles Albert Brooks has turned down are Midnight Run, When Harry Met Sally, Big, and Pretty Woman.
The original Lilo &Stitch was released on the same day as…

Minority Report
I simply CAN NOT get enough of Albert Brooks...

NOT BEING IN ANYTHING I WATCH
I think he's confusing Rebecca Ferguson with Rebecca Hall.
if you know anything about Dom, you know he's not confusing Rebecca Ferguson with any other human being.
Companion was a fun take on AI. Agree with another poster that the ending was just OK. Jack Quaid could be (is?) a star and Gage was good too. For anyone else who likes Curb, the KKK guy is the cop in this.
So we've got bully confusing Rebecca Hall with Rebecca Ferguson, thus confusing nhlnut, then mschu confusing dom with bully, and now dom confused by snoop talking about Rebecca Hall. Looks like we've come full circle.
I also like Rebecca Romijn.
If it helps I watched Dune 2 last night and thought Rebecca Ferguson was good in that.
Sinners was really great imo. Going to be hilarious when Jack O’Connell wins the only Oscar from it, and none of the original songs even get nominated.
JOC’s debut role was as a 15yo skinhead named Pukey. I did not know Steinfeld was engaged to Josh Allen.
Easiest ‘equation’ review ever:

Sinners=[(Django+Flower Moon)xDusk Til Dawn]^Black Snake Moan
Ha! I called it "Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil" meets "Django." I absolutely loved the first half of it. Didn't even know the vampire stuff was coming, I just thought it was Hoodoo "haints/spirits."
LOL me, yes I did, it was late, and at 59 I’m at least stretching before the Dementia Bowl starts, though I’ve spaced Hall’s name before.
Still inexcusable as I’ve beaten the drum from Day One that Ferguson’s performance in Doctor Sleep is a historically great one.
Probably my least favorite actress. Thought her and her character were brutal in The Town. “It was one of those sunny days my brother loved” lol
TBF it was a thankless role that was quite a bit different than the book to put it mildly. You’ll be shocked to learn that the book doesn’t have the same ending, and that Affleck didn’t want FBI Guy showing any romantic interest in her, though it’s hinted at by Lively in the DC.
She couldn’t keep a straight face on the phone telling Affleck “sunny days”, but then neither could’ve Rebecca FERGUSON.
Or Nicole Kidman, Meryl Streep, Helen Mirren, or Dame Judi Freaking Dench.
She wasn’t that great in Kong v Godzilla either, but if you need a pretty, vaguely exotic actress to look worried-suspicious, she’s your girl. GOAT furrowed brow.
