Happened upon Phantom of the Open the other night, not a classic and won't be bothering the Oscar people but I really enjoyed it.
Basically a crane driver from Barrow decides he wants a crack at the British Open golf championship despite being pretty shit at golf.
When one of the professionals hits his drive on the first tee the reaction from our hero is hilarious 😄
Probably still on the BBC iPlayer.

True Romance (greatest ensemble of cast ever) Director Tony Scott Writer Quentin Tarantino Christian Slater Patricia Arquette Dennis Hopper Christopher Walken Gary Oldman Samuel L Jackson Brad Pitt James Gandolfini Val Kilmer Chris Penn Tom Sizemore Michael Rapaport The Sicilian/Moors monologue remains one of my fave film scenes ever So many great characters in it. Floyd ...get some beer...and some cleaning products.

The Punisher The Big Short 10 Things I hate about you All three star trek next gen films Green Mile Close encounters of the third kind Clockwork Orange Pulp Fiction Kill Bill 1 and 2 the list goes on Go on then he’s got a few weeks😉 fine lord of the rings extended editions though Batman Begins Dark Knight Dark Knight Rises which reminds me i call my little chap batman, Bitches love it when the dark knight rises The blues brothers Full metal jacket À la folie... pas du tout (he loves me, he loves me not) a french film which is truly superb, same story from two perspectives Some Like it Hot Goodfellas Scarface Donnie Darko Shaun of the Dead Hot Fuzz E.T. Indiana Jones : Raiders of the Lost Ark - ironically if Jones hadnt been in the film at all the end result would have been exactly the same Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade Ready Player One (highly recommend for a slice of 80's nostalgia and a black mirror look at the future) Rear Window UP (somehow pixar created a better love story in the 10 min intro than some films have managed in many instalments) Blackberry (literally the story of the phone company) Forrest Gump Silence of the Lambs Fight Club Alien Jurassic Park Back to the future 1, 2 and 3 Pulp Fiction be back with more later

fy favourite film of the last 15 or so years - and im very reluctant to try modern shit tinker tailor soldier spy gary oldman is brilliant i really need to catch the 70s series version next time bbc4 show it Brilliant watch,Alec Guiness is phenomenal in both TTSS and Smiley's People. A Perfect Spy is another very good BBC Le Carré adaptation but doesn't quite hit the same heights as the others,imho.

This is by no means a favorite of mine, but “Boss Level” is something that the wife and I watched recently and enjoyed. Action comedies are usually what we go for when we watch something together. This was fun.

Not a film but I bingewatched A Very Royal Scandal.
Martin Sheen is excellent. A real insight into Prince Andrew and that infamous News night interview.

Favourite recent non-English language films:
Riders of Justice - mad and violent action revenge thriller dark comedy starring Mads Mikkelson, possibly the best actor going
Past Lives - sweet Korean film about two childhood friends meeting again as adults
Godzilla Minus One - the best Godzilla film by far
Parasite - everyone here must know this film
Pain and Glory - quietly moving Spanish film about aging, Antonio Banderas is brilliant
Parallel Mothers - Penélope Cruz seems so underrated in English-language cinema, she's great in this and loads of other Spanish films, mostly directed by Pedro Almodóvar
One Cut of the Dead - mad Japanese comedy horror you have to pay attention to for the first 45 mins which can drag at times. The payoff comes in the second half
Happening - features a brutal scene of a woman attempting to give herself an abortion in 1960s France. And all it shows is the tool then her face as she does it
A Taxi Driver - another mad Korean film in the vein of Parasite
Bacurau - mad Brazilian film that takes a while to get going, but once it does...
The Farewell - beautiful film about the culture clashes between the Chinese and American halves of a Chinese American family. Great cinematography
The Guilty - tense thriller all set over a phone call
Balloon - solid German adventure film about trying to cross the border from 1970s East to West Germany in an air balloon
Your Name - fantastic anime, but the trailer is a big spoiler
The Handmaiden - like many South Korean films, The Handmaiden is no-holds-barred. Has a somehow erotic tooth-filing scene
Victoria - compelling German thriller all filmed in one take
Sweet Bean - really beautiful Japanese film about a baker that gives an insight into Japanese culture and some of its dark history
The Anthem of the Heart - sweet anime about a girl whose voice is taken so she can't hurt anyone with what she says
The Wave - Norwegian disaster film doing it as good as (if not better than) Hollywood. You don't need to rely on special effects

I know there’s a film thread somewhere on the board.
Thursday night I went to see Lee - true story about Lee Miller , model & photographer. Set in WW2 & was emotional at times, my film of 2024.
Recently I’ve seen See No Evil and enjoyed that as well.
