I was totally gobsmacked at some of them, definitely some of the best driving I've ever seen!!!Gary the Enfield wrote:wigan white wrote:Watched "Need for Speed" last night. Story is completely bollocks but worth watching for the car stunts alone, theyre incredible!!!!
I saw an interview with A(a)ron Paul who said there was no CGI for any of the car stunts.

Some good films available on sky movies this week. Just watched 'Enough Said' (James Gandolfini's penultimate film
) and 'Nebraska'. Will probably watch 'Saving Mr Banks' tomorrow.

We watched Mr Banks becasue fair wench hadnt seen it, i tried to block out the inaccuracies and enjoyed it, still a great film. as are the other two! may be bias about Enough Said because as its Gandolfini and JLD in it but i really liked it. Nebraska tho is no doubt tremendous!!

It took me a moment to get past thinking 'Hey, that's his Kevin Finnerty voice!' (Though it's pretty much the same in The Last Castle).General Mannerheim wrote:yeah i saw all three were on ina row the other night - quality evenings veiwing if you've got the time!Beefheart wrote:Some good films available on sky movies this week.

Re: What are you watching tonight?
Did you ever watch this? (downhill) I told my dad about and he's just text to say how much he enjoyed it. For him to A. Enjoy a film enough to want to tell me. And B. actually send a text ! Must be testament to the flick...clapton is god wrote:^ Bought it from Amazon and received it yesterday. Hope to watch over the weekend but our lass was less than impressed when I suggested it yesterday evening so ended up watching Ronin again. I'll post comments after a viewing.

Re: What are you watching tonight?
Yep, sorry, watched it same weekend as above post, just me and Mrs C with lass opting out. Very, very good! Enjoyed it a lot. Loved the characters and the essential Englishness of it all. Thanks for the recco. Also watched your Aussie film recco from last week and found it a hard watch but what was interesting was that the three of us were still discussing and dissecting it the next day, which is always a good marker.

Spot of lunch time 'Dinnerladies'. Vickie Wood

A lunch of wrapizzas. Like a King.
Gave up on the lunch/dinner thing a while ago, it's too confusing down here. Practicalities over principles. Still tend to say tea for my evening meal. Feel like a charlatan saying 'dinner' for some reason.
Have to translate for our Maud when I'm back home. A few weeks ago we were going to Middlebrook at about half 11 and my mum asked if we'd be back in time for dinner. Maud's response was 'oh yeah, we'll only be a couple of hours'.

Tomorrow ... Macbeth is the open in Grosvenor Park in Chester. The weather is said to be OK. Taling in your own food and drink is, apparently encouraged.
Should be interesting.

Not advocating mass-murder as an entirely positive experience, of course, but it had its moments.

I thought I'd replied to this! I thought it might be the Bloomsbury set, but apparently it's New York in 1951.William the White wrote:In Tom Stoppard's wonderful play Travesties we are in Zurich 1917, where were encamped James Joyce writing Ulysses, the Surrealist, Tristan Tzara, 'writing' cut up poetry and Lenin plotting revolution. Might be a temptation...Prufrock wrote:Not tonight, but next week, the first in a 3 part series on cities that defined an age artistically - the first being Vienna in 1908. I'd imagine one of the others must be Paris, either fin de siecle or sometime in the 20s, but dunno about the third. Looks fab, anyway.

Just watched the 1st one and thought it was excellent. Recommended.

Re: What are you watching tonight?
Watching this think about 50 years of Match of the Day. Reminds of me pleading with my mum to let me stay up and watch it when I was a kid. It's still my favourite footie show, for all Sky and BT's techno bollocks.

Going to be weird watching it for the first time without the best pundit of the last 20 years.

That thing on ITV about the First World War, told from people's letters. Absolutely heartbreaking.
You can judge the whole world on the sparkle that you think it lacks.
Yes, you can stare into the abyss, but it's staring right back.

9-0'Clock. BBC4, Freeview 9 for an old classic tonight. The Eagle has Landed with Michael Caine. That's for me.
