Today, I saw three movies in my neighbourhood's theatre (That theatre is only three minutes away from my house!).
milewinkgrin:
The Bucket List:
This is really wonderful story. Two patients were strangers in a hospital room. But the doctor gave them a couple of weeks to live. They made the bucket list for things to do until they die. Then they decided to get out from hospital.
It's not simply tearjerker. It made me laugh a lot. What an exciting adventures!
This movie says "Not about how to die. How to live". Their last moments were brightest in their life. I want to live without regret like them.
Charlie Wilson's War:
It say "This is based on the true story."
But that "true" story is simple. US congressman Charlie Wilson sold weapons to Afghanistan. The Soviet Empire left from Afghanistan. But result is very ironic. [SPOILER]They fucked up. That result is 9/11![/SPOILER]
I'm Not There:
They're all different features, but they are one person. He is a poet. He is a revolutionist. He is an outlaw. He is a father, and husband. He is Rock star.
Yes, he is Bob Dylan.
It sound like "What movie am I?". But that's "I'm Not There".
But I'm still confused. What is this movie? This is not a documentary of Dylan. Not biographic of Dylan. Even his name is not Bob Dylan. He has many names in this movie. Jack, Jude, Woody, Billy, Robbie, and Arthur.
Some great actors and actresses played Bob Dylan. Especially Cate Blanchett was brilliant!
I recommend this to Bluesman Mike. I think he understand this movie. :thumbsup:

Today I saw "In The Valley Of Elah" in a theatre. It was not bad, but not great movie.
"In The Valley Of Elah" is partly a thriller. A father try to find who killed his son. But this movie showed also the psychological scars left on soldiers of this chaotic and brutal war.
Tommy Lee Jones's acting was great as usual. I'm his fan since I saw "Under Seige". But, actually I saw him in "Black Moon Rising" in a theatre. But I didn't imagine he become big star in the future. :alberteinstein:

My daughter told me that, for my birthday, she will sit down and watch any movie I want to watch with me...after all, I watch the dreck with Owen Wilson in it with her.
She was really surprised when I told her I wanted to watch "Underdog" and "Happy Feet".
After all, what's the fun in watching a movie at home if the grandkids don't come up and sit on your lap?
And, of course, I like both movies...I get a kick out of hearing Brittany Murphy singing "Somebody To Love".

"You have the right to remain silent. If you choose to waive this right, I may have to kill you in self-defense because you're boring me to death."
I can agree with you on that one, I do enjoy watching movies with my boys... But I do wish to have that time away once in awhile to watch what I want to watch thatis not age appropriate for them, and my birthday would be one of those times... Have the party, food, cake, icecream, presents, what have you. Then leave kiddies with a babysitter and go out to do my own thing

True, ma'am...but if it weren't for the grandkids, I wouldn't WANT to celebrate my birthday.
I'm watching "The Day the Earth Stood Still" while posting...I still love that movie.

I love it too! Classic, but then very few people I know caught that the words spoken to "control" the robot were used by Bruce Campbell to get the Necronomicon in Army of Darkness.......
