Mrs E and I rewatched The Deer Hunter tonight. Such a masterpiece.

@endo Don’t know if I could re-watch it.

Then just rewatch the wedding scene @Jett129 that alone is worth it. People often think about the Russian roulette, but the portrayal of this poor, squalid life in 1960s Pennsylvania is even more impressive. Like when the survivors come together at the end to sing "God Bless America."

It’s over, OBAA movie of the year.

[endo]

Another masterpiece, and the first time I watched the 3h version. Didn't know they are stealing Kilgore's board.

@endo
I love the scene with the French colonialists in the extended version. The meal is such a surreal juxtaposition in an already surreal movie,

[ARNC]

How did I not know about this? I guess 13 years late is better than never!

[endo]

Never heard of it. Sounds good and gets on the list.

[ARNC]

@endo I thought this would be up your street.

[Matt]

I liked Tron Ares.

[IrishHeart]

@ARNC great recommendation. Terri Hooley is a legend in Ireland and The Undertones one of my favourite bands of that era. I’m seeing them again on their UK tour this year.

what a waste of time, sheer nonsense

[tody]

did a half marathon on the row erg today for a competition, so i couldn't switch channels.
but this here was a real waste of time:

My wife and I really enjoyed this one. Surprised that Kate Hudson was the only one nominated.

[ÆRϺΔΚ]

Excellent movie, what roller-coaster ride!

[ARNC]

Thought the first UK screening of Shigeru Yoshida‘s film Shades of Indigo on 28 March might be of interest. General booking opens tomorrow, already open for Barbican members.

If anyone else is going, there might be an opportunity for an IH mini meet-up afterwards.

[endo]

Cheap thrills and narratively a string of clichés.

[flannel slut]

It took a second viewing but finally behind all the praise for One Battle After Another. Helped that I was ready for Leo to be more akin to the dude than some badass revolutionist (my initial expectations). And Benicio and Sean Penn

[SKT]

@flannel-slut good to hear I gotta get this watched

[Jett129]

Watched Is This Thing On. I really liked it,wife pretty much hated it,but then again she’s not really all that much of a fan of stand up comedy.
