Popular Post Mutt Daeng Posted December 4, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted December 4, 2021 I've just watched Little Boy Blue, which is a 4 part crime drama set in Liverpool. Stephen Graham plays the lead role as Det. Inspector Dave (Ned) Kelly. Very good IMHO. Well worth a look. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt6816780/ 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post sanuk711 Posted December 5, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted December 5, 2021 Landscapers---HBO + Sky 4 parts--Starts Tomorrow---TVChaosUK I dont know if this is any good---I just found it surprising that HBO paid so much for the story-(that was written by one of the murders) then placed such well known actors to play the parts. The Crime didn't rate that highly in the UK at the time. Sky and HBO drama Landscapers stars Oscar winner Olivia Colman and David Thewlis as Susan and Chris Edwards respectively – a real-life couple accused of double murder. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
recom273 Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 I watched Venom last night, I thought it was terrible, there was a constant relentless dialogue between the main characters and the alien characters for the whole duration ending in a fight scene at the end, reminiscent of the ghostbusters final fight scene. Quote I didn't care for most of it, bad CGI, random story, unlikable characters, and way too many <deleted>ty one-liners and forced "humour". Low effort cash at its best.

Jingthing Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 (edited) BBC Scotland's Wha's Like Us Everything you ever wanted to know about Scotland's depiction in movies but were afraid to ask. Plus the Simpsons: So much more than Braveheart. Scots might know most of the scads of movies (from very old to more recent) mentioned in this show, but I only knew a small number. Based on the clips, many looked very intriguing and I don't think you need to be a Scotsman to like them. Some random examples: Edited December 6, 2021 by Jingthing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The legend of Barney Thompson was a classic---but you forgot the most famous one "Trainspotting"...the only one to make the top 10 in British movies. Another Favorite --way back in the early 90s, when you had to go to a "fringe" Cinema in Sydney to see anything decent --was the quirky crime one "Shallow grave" still running on Pirates, the movie that made Ewan McGregor a star. Anything by Danny Boyle was good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I intentionally didn't mention it because it is in very well known category internationally and of course I've seen it. I was trying to highlight little known outside Scotland, UK, etc. films that may be hidden gems to most. The tv show mentioned gives samples and commentary about scads of those. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xylophone Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 I must thank whoever recommended the documentary, "Platoon: Brothers in Arms", because I thought it was very good indeed and would never have thought that the "film stars" would have put up with so much hard training, muck and filth in order to get the film to seem realistic. Also downloaded the Russell Crowe version of "Robin Hood" and thought it far superior to the Kevin Costner version. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow, what a documentary/movie – – riveting and so well made, and quite emotional at the end, and I thoroughly enjoyed it, and recommend it. From what I could see on the IMDb info, it cost about $1 million to make and only just about broke even on worldwide takings to date, which surprises me no end, because it is absolutely excellent. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TVCHAOSUK I have just watched the first episode---a lot of it will take place in court---- *** ???? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hero, a young man from south London, is in the dock for murder. The prosecution barrister relates damning evidence to him in the closing speech. Hero decides he wants to tell his own story, rather than the version that his barrister decided was in his best interests, and exercises his right to present his own closing speech. He fires his barrister and tells the jury that he is innocent, sharing a very different sequence of events that placed a law-abiding car salesman in the frame for murder 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
