Netflix...

I highly recommend the Smithereen episode from Black Mirrors as well, one of the best thing to come from cinema. It's a self-sustaining story, so you don't need to watch other episodes to follow up.
 
Can't believe i didn't watch before The Big Lebowski. Atleast i cannot remember it fully watching it.


His Dudeness itself: The Dude, El Duderino, best intro ever


The Dude shamelessly writing a 0.67 cents cheque with a sip of milk on his beard is hilariously genius.
 
Black Cat White Cat. Very Entertaining film by Emir Kusturica.

Gypsies, Bulgarian crooks and a Serbian beauty who is to be married off.
 
RIP Gina Lollobrigida, una delle belle “maggiorata” del cinema.

Yes, I saw it too; just put a few pictures in the "beauty ideal" section.

There used to be so many beautiful actresses, and actors. Now it's all different.

Perhaps the movie I remember best is Solomon and Sheba with Yul Brynner, one of the sexiest men alive imo which I saw on television years after its release date. Whenever I read about how the Hebrews hated the fertility cults of the Canaanites, I remember it. :)

 
Anyone started watching The Last of Us?


The opening of the TV Show is interesting and scary.


Fungus pandemics looks like something surreal yet so based on realism. It's absolutely terrifying. We already had decent amount of zombie movies/shows but this one i must say is the most creative and scariest one.

I liked the first two episodes, although I didn't find the creatures particularly scary. Maybe because I found them sort of "pretty"? I didn't much like the third episode. It was like a Hallmark Movie about a gay couple.

The scariest "zombie" type movie/series I've ever seen was "Train to Busan". I think it was the speed of the transformation and their speed of movement as well as the non-stop action. TWD was scary too, but not as bad as that.

The movies that frighten me the most, however, are those which deal with the devil; movies about exorcisms, for example. I suppose it's all the Catholic education. The ones that scar me the most are the ones which deal with the abuse and desecration of children. I couldn't get True Detective with Matthew McConnaughey out of my mind for weeks, and I've had to deal with child abuse cases in court. It was just so VILE. Yet, having started it, I had to see how it ended.

I agree, 3rd episode was dissapointing. It was completely unneccessary filling up with thwt story. But considering modern TV propaganda i am not surprised.

And, i have to say the fungi infection looks way more scarier than any other zombie movie. I disagree iwht you here.

As for True Detective season 1, that was a masterpiece.
 
The last film I watched was a beautiful romantic and erotic drama. I can't call it a porn movie because that's not what it is at all. This movie had two characters playing beautiful love and unrestrained and passionate sex. It was great. After watching it, I also wanted to try to feel those emotions and so I turned to escort euro girls yerevan. It was wonderful and unforgettable. I'm glad I got to do it. I plan to follow the work of this director in the future. I wish I could remember the name of this film, but if I find it or remember it, I'll be sure to share it with you.

I like Nolan, but this movie is over-hyped and overrated. The marketing was completely dishonest. Boring 3 hours, though cinematographically and acting are quite good, the substance of the actual movie is not good.
 
I figured, so I gave it a pass.

From what I can tell, it's a post-modern, neo-Marxist movie about a Marxist fellow traveler if not card carrying Communist who, if he didn't directly pass nuclear secrets to the Soviets, associated with those who did.

Lillian Hellman was a silly writer in comparison.

What a week-end for movies: Marxist apologia and the most WOKE view of male-female relationships possible.

I would suggest that everyone go see Sound of Freedom instead.
 
TBH, I think the Barbie movie looks more interesting.

But, i read that last year the Energy Department revoked the decision made in 1954 that took the security clearance from Oppenheimer. That means he didn't have anything to do with Commies?

Dunno. To be honest, this whole movie marketing from the actors over-hyping feels like a scam to me, each passing 15-20 minutes i was trying to convince myself that it will become more interesting until it was done, superficial, a boring biopic with some thriller elements. No wondering they were saying no CGI was used, there was no need for it when 99.99% of the movie you have people just talking to each other, despite that, i didn't knew the context what was going, it was hard to me to figure out exactly what role/position has who, especially Strauss.
 
Oppenheimer was just another intellectual fellow traveler. Like the Cambridge spies in England, being pro-Soviet was acceptable during the 30s and 40s because the Soviet Union was our ally against the Nazis. However, once the war was over and the U.S. saw the route which the Soviet Union was taking, things changed.

Had it been my decision to make he would never have gotten his security clearance in the first place. Every important person in his life, including the women with whom he was intimately involved were members of the Communist Party.

"When he joined the Manhattan Project in 1942, Oppenheimer wrote on his personal security questionnaire that he had been "a member of just about every Communist Front organization on the West Coast".[59] Years later, he claimed that he did not remember saying this, that it was not true, and that if he had said anything along those lines, it was "a half-jocular overstatement".[60] He was a subscriber to the People's World,[61] a Communist Party organ, and he testified in 1954, "I was associated with the communist movement".[62] From 1937 to 1942, Oppenheimer was a member at Berkeley of what he called a "discussion group", which was later identified by fellow members Haakon Chevalier[63][64] and Gordon Griffiths as a "closed" (secret) unit of the Communist Party for Berkeley faculty.[65]"

"Oppenheimer's party membership, or lack thereof, has been debated. Almost all historians agree he had strong left-wing views during this time and interacted with party members, but it is disputed whether he was officially a member of the party. At his 1954 security clearance hearings, he denied being a member of the Communist Party but identified himself as a fellow traveler, which he defined as someone who agrees with many of communism's goals but is not willing to blindly follow orders from any Communist Party apparatus.[67]
In August 1943, he volunteered to Manhattan Project security agents that George Eltenton, whom he did not know, had solicited three men at Los Alamos for nuclear secrets on behalf of the Soviet Union. When pressed on the issue in later interviews, Oppenheimer admitted that the only person who had approached him was his friend Haakon Chevalier, a Berkeley professor of French literature, who had mentioned the matter privately at a dinner at Oppenheimer's house.[68] Brigadier General Leslie R. Groves, Jr., the director of the Manhattan Project, thought Oppenheimer too important to the project to be ousted over this suspicious behavior. On July 20, 1943, he wrote to the Manhattan Engineer District:"

"Throughout the development of the atomic bomb, Oppenheimer was under investigation by both the FBI and the Manhattan Project's internal security arm for his past left-wing associations. He was followed by Army security agents during a trip to California in June 1943 to visit Tatlock, who was suffering from depression. Oppenheimer spent the night in her apartment.[76] Tatlock committed suicide on January 4, 1944, leaving Oppenheimer deeply grieved.[77]
Many of Oppenheimer's closest associates were active in the Communist Party in the 1930s or 1940s, including his brother Frank, Frank's wife Jackie,[78] Kitty,[79] Tatlock, his landlady Mary Ellen Washburn,[80] and several of his graduate students at Berkeley.[81]"
