Last movie of the night....Blade Runner 2049. #fridayFilm

Damm that man can dance.....Mads Mick..... #fridayFilm

Movie night continues with Another Round. So far a wonderful performance by Mads Mikkelsen. #FridayFilm

Watching the 1992 schlock horror Braindead again and cheered when Lionel ran in with the Victa.

Or was it a Briggs and Stratton?

Doesn’t matter, but it’s probably the bloodiest film I’ve ever seen.

“Haven’t seen mum yet.” 🤣🤣

Got a weekend to myself as my partner is going walking in the Lakes, so pizza?

That was easy, but what film should I watch tonight?

And the week's #FridayFilm

It's almost time for #FridayFilm food

Allied (2016)

A drama, love story and spy thriller set during WWII, in Casablanca & England. The movie is also of the type made in the same period, although there are some modern concessions made with regards strong language and violence.

The film didn't perform well at the box office, probably due to the understated nature of the film-making. Don't let this deter you, it is an excellent movie, and deserves a wider audience.

Recommended.

This week's #FridayFilm includes these two people in the cast. Do you know which film?

#films #movies

The character's name Elvis has no significance, and there is no music included in the film from the most famous bearer of that name. When discovering his name Anabelle exclaims "Really?", as one might in real life.

The movie does use some music, including "Via con me" by Paolo Conte. The song fits well with the film scene.

Anyone know what the Conte song is about? I'm particularly perplexed by the inclusion of "chips, chips".

Elvis and Anabelle (2007)

A love story.

A gothic, present-day, re-telling of the Sleeping Beauty tale. No surprises and nothing particularly novel, but, beautifully told. Compelling because the three leads portray such likeable characters.

Joe Mantegna is an old favourite, and I'd like to see more of Max Minghella and Blake Lively in the future. Writer and director Will Geiger also should be praised.

A definite thumbs-up. Watch it with your SO.

Top Secret! (1984)

A comedy gem.

A spoof on WWII movies, Elvis musicals, cold-war dramas, and many others. There are funny, spoken and visual, gags every ten seconds. You can, and should, see this movie several times to discover all the gags.

All the actors put in great performances, and Val does a superb job with the Elvis-style singing and dancing.

This movie was a moderate box-office hit at the time of release, but, has also become a cult classic.

A must-see.

Inception (2010)

A SciFi, action, adventure film exploring questions of morality by using multi-layered, induced dreams.

Nice cinematography, well acted, clever special effects, and an interesting concept.

However, the movie failed to get me invested in any of the characters. I couldn't care less about any of them. As I wasn't involved in the story, I found the 2 hours, 28 minutes really dragged.

Ignore the hype, watch something else.

American Made (2017)

An action, adventure, comedy movie, based on the exploits of a US pilot who smuggles guns for the CIA to General Noriega (Panama), and on the return trip brings cocaine into Louisiana.

It is a testament to the skills of director Doug Liman, and star Tom Cruise, that you will be rooting for this gun runner & drug dealer character.

Nicely filmed, great pace, & very entertaining. Plays fast & loose with actual history.

Thoroughly recommended.
