Been on my radar a long time and do not see a sighting sadly. Great film the 1st 1.

Indeed, and they set it up for a sequel but it's been ten years.

Guy Richie's best...

Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde with Spencer Tracy & Ingrid Bergman next on TCM...

The old one with David Bowie? I liked it, but the book was even better. Whitley Streiber wrote it before he went crazy and started claiming to have been anally probed by aliens. He was a major talent up until then.

he's done a few good ones although I have to admit I really liked the Man from UNCLE. A good score in that film too.

Watching True Romance again after decades. Heh. Still near the top among the Tarantino pulp.

Clarence Worley: In Jailhouse Rock he was everything rockabilly's about. I mean, he is rockabilly. Mean, surly, nasty, rude. In that movie he couldn't give a f*** about

nothing except rockin' and rollin', living fast, dying young and leaving a good-looking corpse.

Becoming Bond, an amusing look at how Aussie George Lazenby became James Bond, and how he rejected ever playing him again.

Just finished the very recent docudrama called Three Girls. A harrowing account of UK police/councils and associated pen-pushers failing young white girls from Asian grooming gangs in Rochdale,UK.

Yeah, with Bowie, it was okay, albeit a little tough to follow.

I loved that picture. Hopper: "You're Sicilian, huh?"

How about "Blue Velvet"?

Or "The Grifters"

Watched Blue Velvet again for maybe the 5th time a few months ago! Dennis Hopper indeed. An all-time fave. Blue Velvet influenced Tarantino and also Lynch's Twin Peaks, which will reboot this August. Looking forward to that. Saw The Grifters a couple times, been awhile so tnx for reminding me.

Six pack if you want a dark gritty funny one and you can handle some proper northern monkey scouse accent (subs recommended) grab this film it's a decent low budget geezers film. It's a northern version of lock stock it's decent but a bit darker.

Brilliant film. The Crew 2008.
Really enjoyed it!

Watched Shallow Grave the other day too. Another excellent film.

Any more gems from British Cinema?

Love to know. Pls

In the mid 90's I hung with some guys and we watched "Blue Velvet" & "Wild at Heart" every week go a year...

Good to hear you enjoyed the Crew.

 

There's one I like which I have a hard time finding online and is  forgotten film in the same vein as the crew.

 

Gangster no.1

A decent mini series with Peter mullan is called the Fear. About a Brighton based gangster turned pillar of community whose entering dementia and losing the plot and nobody realises. Shockingly good stuff

Hopper was the epitome of evil in Blue Velvet, made your skin crawl.

I think I read somewhere that the only thing he can remember about making Easy Rider was that it was the best heroin he ever had. Imagine going for a beer with him and Hunter S Thompson?????

Just watched Trainspotting 2 (T2) last night.

 

If you enjoyed the first one, you'll enjoy this one as well. 20 years from the first movie, all four of them get together (for better or worse) again. I thought it was good, a couple of real rib-ticklers in among the blood, gore & drugs.................. 

I've been following the series Dark Net recently and would recommend this for people who want to know what really goes on under the hood.

 

As the title implies, it is about the darker side of the internet from Silk Road type sites to hacking home CCTV systems. On season 2 episode 7 at the minute. Well presented, worth watching................
