Epstein’s Shadow: Ghislaine Maxwell

 

Summary: In this three-hour documentary, we investigate the powerful, connected, and mysterious Ghislaine Maxwell, who was once the heiress to the Maxwell fortune but whose life takes a sordid downturn when she meets Jeffrey Epstein, the serial sex offender. An investigative series that reveals a complicated story of power, sex, and money and leads to Ghislaine Maxwell’s arrest awaiting trial in the fall of 2021.

 

 

 

I don't need to spend time watching a movie to know that the world we live in is full of very, very bad people. To each their own, but I'd rather watch something that makes me happy than get even more depressed about the real world.

Most Ghibli movies are like that, and my absolute favourite category of movie. However I'll never watch Red Turtle or Grave of the fireflies again as they made me unutterably sad.

 

BTW, if anyone enjoys easy listening classical music, the Ghibli 25 years concert at the Budokan is on U Tube and well worth the time. A massive orchestra with a very large choir of hundreds played for 14,000 people. Joe Hisaishi really knows how to write a tune.

A lot of torrent sites have added the movies with the Tv series so it's all jumbled up.

 

The latest and last series just out is series 3.

I think the correct line up is :

 

Jack Irish:

Series:

Season 1 - 2016 ( 6 eps )

Season 2 - 2018 ( 6 eps )

Season 3 - 2021 ( 4 eps )

 

Movies :

Bad Debts  - 2012 

Black Tide - 2012

Dead Point - 2014

 

Some sites are mixing them all up together and confusion abounds  ( as happened with Strike ) , my streaming site claims 4 seasons of 6 episodes each !!

 

A good way to put them in order is by the year, plus , all episodes are roughly 54 minutes long and the movies 1 + 1/2 hours .

I feel the same way about any doco about the destruction of the Planet. Pretty obvious that world is being slowly destroyed and I'd rather not be reminded of it.

Watching this now. Pretty good so far.

Don't expect the Criminal Justice system to do anything not in the interests of the rich and powerful who control them.

Only way to get real justice is to wait until they are convicted and sent to prison.

Then it is an easy matter.

Who is "they"?

During this period of COVID-19 and lots of spare time, I continually seek good worthwhile movies to watch.

 

I recently found a good way of finding them beside this forum of course.

 

I found some success by selecting say a good actor like Denzel Washington and then watching all his lesser known movies or the ones I had previously missed.

 

My latest is the talented and beautiful Keira Knightly, I first became aware of her in The Imitation Game and now have recently watched Atonement, Pride and Prejudice, Begin Again, The Duchess, Seeking a Friend for the End of the World and Official Secrets and have not been disappointed.

 

Maybe you have a good actor you can recommend.

Can't go wrong with the 'Denze'. I haven't seen a bad movie from him yet. Re-watched 'John Q' again recently on Netflix.

This six episode series - Ancient.Rome.The.Rise.And.Fall.Of.An.Empire.Series.1 1080p.HDTV.x264.AAC.MVGroup.org -is very well made. (Rarbg)

 

When The Dust Settles

 

Danish TV series with 10 episodes, that doesn't seem to have any significant reviews. Looks ok though.

 

It's on ☠️. Not many torrents, so I hope that doesn't mean it's a pile of ????

If you like this type of series, Rome was outstanding.

Lansky.2021.1080p.WEBRip.1400MB.DD5.1.x264-GalaxyRG[TGx] is a quality rip.

Came across as a bit of a B thriller with pretty bad CGI.  A 5.6 IMDB score, but it's watchable.

Another question for the knowledgeable posters here, and it's not because I am not looking for this movie/doco cos I am, but with no luck!!

 

Someone mentioned a v good doco called: Indochine: A peoples war in colour,  but having no luck as I said above.

I've watched quite a few Danish/Swedish crime drama series and have never been disappointed. I'll be giving it a watch soon.

I mainly use VLC now for all media. It's also very easy to add subtitles, when available of course.
