Popular Post xylophone Posted November 14, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted November 14, 2019 Watched, "Danger Close" about Australian and New Zealand soldiers face overwhelming odds as they fight for their lives during the Battle of Long Tan in Vietnam. As it happens a friend of mine from NZ was Battery Commander in that battle and was in charge of the guns firing on the enemy to keep them away from the soldiers positions. He said that it was quite a harrowing time because it called for some very accurate shelling, and on many occasions the relentless firing of the guns made the barrels are so hot that you could not even stand near the guns because of the heat. Eventually they began to run out of shells and had to call in helicopters to restock them. Thankfully the casualties were comparatively low, this especially in light of the huge enemy numbers attacking them. He was awarded a medal after that battle, but it was many years after the occasion I believe. That added a little "interest" to the film, however it was well worth watching anyway. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surprisingly no black actors cast, pretty sure there must have been a few in the USA navy in the war? I think all the pilots were probably assigned to the air force. Ie. Tuskegee Airmen and served in the European theatre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

newatthis Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 S04 Final Season of "Man in High Castle" (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1740299/) is available in the usual places. S03 was a bit over the top for me but I'll watch this last season and see how they wrap it all up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I read correctly he wanted to know where to download a 23 year old movie. If in 2019 he doesn't know from whence to do that he must either be or has been living under a rock. As I said.

FYI there are many download sites, not all of them have movies or series that old, and if they do there's no S & L's, so won't download. That's why I asked. Any more not so smart comments you want to make? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am looking forward to more in Chapter 2. Side note new series of "The Crown" is starting on Sunday on Netflix and the reviews I read shows it to be very good, New cast this time. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep...good flic....this is what a real whistleblower looks like. Enjoying The Impeachment Show...Vice does it's best not to look rabidly biased...appreciate the balance. Some other good stuff: Earthquake Bird....set in Tokyo about a love triangle and some shady goings on. Alicia Vikander is lovely as usual. The Tobacconist...about a young man who moves from a village in Austria to Vienna where he runs into Freud, at a time of rising German aggression. Stars Bruno Granz as well. The Morning Show....one of apple's better shows....about the #metoo saga unravelling at a morning network show. Timely and entertaining and tackles a complex issue. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xylophone Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 Downloaded and watched (again) the movie, "The man from the earth". I did this mainly because I find it quite an intriguing movie and although there is no action in it, because the movie takes place in someone's cabin, there is plenty to occupy the mind. On that score, look out for some very feasible explanations as to what happened in certain aspects of religion and history, right back to the beginning of time itself – – slow start, but stay with it because in the end it is a movie that (IMO) stays with you because of its viewpoints and possible alternative explanations.
