And I BET there's at least one of those funky creatures that shakes it's head really fast, or a body that contorts and then walks on the ceiling, somewhere in this movie.

Okay, I'm going to have to put my flame suit on for what I'm about to post.

My wife and I went to the movie show yesterday and saw Where the Crawdads Sing. It was a simple, slow-paced story with beautiful scenery, great acting by the main character. This is not a shoot 'em up action movie. It's just a straight forward story-well-told based on a best-selling novel. We loved it!

Wait, what's this about needing a flame suit? Here it comes: One of the best parts of the movie was the soundtrack written and performed by Taylor Swift. She wrote this in Appalachian Folk style and recorded it in one take using all pre-1953 instruments to keep it authentic with the movie time period. She can actually sing! Possibly Academy Award soundtrack.

Check it out of you dare: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Q94kA7llGw

I love a great soundtrack, and great cinematography.
Some of my favorites are:
Leon the professional
Glory
Star Wars and the Empire strikes back
Star Trek 2
Last of the Mohicans
O brother where art thou

No need for the flame suit, the song is great, she's actually recently changed musical styles and gone a bit back to her roots further away from pop and with some slower more instrumental almost folk-ish songs with her last albums Folklore and Evermore and I think she's better for it.

After seeing Where the Crawdads sing and seeing the lyrics to the soundtrack, I'm really impressed by how well she nailed it. I cannot tell my grand kids that I'm becoming a Taylor Swift fan.

This is the Edison film I mentioned a day or so ago: https://amzn.to/3PqQ3br

It is free to watch on that rebranded IMDBTV Freevee channel.

stein_325i · 08-12-2022, 09:27 PM

This looks like it should be good, love a good satire.

Donut Lord · 08-13-2022, 01:00 PM

Watched a movie called Bushwick with Dave Bautista and Brittany Snow. Pretty good.

If you haven't watch The Alpinist yet, do so as soon as possible.

Still lifting my jaw up off the ground, you won't believe your eyes.

M5Rick · 08-13-2022, 05:57 PM

Watched this again and wouldn't offer any of these people life insurance LOL

M5Rick · 08-14-2022, 05:41 AM

The Legend of Tom Dooley.
Michael Landon's second movie playing Dooley hounded by the Feds and others for killing an enemy soldier not knowing the Civil War was over with no justice and only hanging as the judge and jury but help is at hand.
Watching it at breakfast.

Never saw that one, Rick. I like Michael Landon, though. Used to watch him in the TV western "Bonanza." He was little Joe, one of three sons to Ben Cartwright.

Here's a movie I saw him in when I was a kid.

I Was A Teenage Werewolf

Here's quiz for the movie buffs:

The young girl caricature represents Natalie Portman when she was twelve years old.

What is the name of the movie and who plays her sidekick.

^^ Léon: The Professional, and Jean Reno as Léon. A favorite movie of mine.

Originally called The Professional in the US.

Esteban · 08-14-2022, 09:04 PM

Why does it look like Léon and Mathilda (above) came out of a Mario game? lol

TXSTYLE · 08-15-2022, 11:16 AM

Watched DAY SHIFT on Netflix.

Good entertaining Fun! Vampires, Action and Comedy = Solid Recipe.

M5Rick · 08-15-2022, 05:20 PM

Don't usually watch these but I like Dolph Lundgren
