ivor bigun Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 23 hours ago, xylophone said: I did watch this one and as you rightly say it did bring out a few things which hadn't done the rounds before, including the fact that both of the Krays were homosexual, whereas before only Ronnie was fitted into that category. Also in the doco was the fact that Reggie hadn't touched his wife sexually all the time they were together, and reading between the lines it was that which was a major factor in her committing suicide. IMO a worthwhile watch for anybody who remembers aspects of this era. When i lived in London in the late 60s and 70s ,my then girlfriend was friends with a girl who had been in school with them(not the same class) and she told us then that as youngsters they were right bullying barstewards . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew Dwyer Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 “ Three Girls “ (2017) 3 part drama from BBC based on the grooming of hundreds of teenage girls by several middle age men, many with wives and families, in Rochdale, U.K.. Focuses on the mistakes made by the police in assessing the enormity of the situation. A YouTube documentary called “ Betrayed Girls: The Rochdale Scandal” also available if you prefer a more factual account. Either way , a harrowing story. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Several middle aged muslim men, which is largely why social services and the police brushed it under the carpet for so long leading to 1500 children being abused over a long period by gangs of these people, actually they don't deserve being called men at all.

dukeandduke Posted July 17, 2021 Share Posted July 17, 2021 On Rotten Tomatoes, Black Widow currently has an 80% Tomatometer and a 92% audience score. I'm in the camp who liked it, and I will see it again. Then again, I would watch Scarlett Johansson and Florence Pugh pulling weeds. It's not a documentary. It's a modern superhero movie. It's not The Dark Knight in my book, but I'd like to hear what 20 superhero movies people rank higher. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good cast, including, Sean Bean, Stephen Graham, Olivia Coleman, Juliet Stevenson, Christopher Eccleston.

His last flop, Midnight In The Switchgrass, he just puts in a 5 minute appearance for his paycheck, yet he gets headline billing. He pretty much gives the kiss of death to any movie he appears in now. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

samtam Posted July 18, 2021 Share Posted July 18, 2021 Last night could only manage about 10 minutes of Limbo: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt9138170/ The first and second scenes were just long drawn out pointless pieces of self-indulgent cinematography. Compounded my ill-chosen list with Leverage: Redemption https://www.imdb.com/title/tt12197698/ which I abandoned after about 20 minutes, and then Gossip Girl 2021 https://www.imdb.com/title/tt12197698/ was as dire as I anticipated. I'm embarrassed to say I even considered it☺️ A few episodes of Mr Inbetween thereafter made up for a slew of bad choices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
