What films resonate with your own life?

Featured Replies

I'll go first.

 

Gran Torino 

 

The character played by Clint Eastwood doesn't get along with his own family members ... but bonded with the Hmong Vietnames neighbors more than with his own family members.

The Big Lebowski. Someone in this fair city micturated on my rug, and I've yet to be compensated...

because you're lazy and you like to stick it to THE MAN by walking around in your bathrobe all day and don't even bother looking for a job? You see behind the bull<deleted> of the entire system?  

And you like to be called The Dudeness?

Now the movie is out, we will see if I still have the same experience of the movie looking back on my life when I had the adventurous courage and curiosity to not just follow on path, but dear to jump off and go in another direction, and always question my existence and dream big as well try to understand what true happiness is.

Deliverance.
Deer Hunter.

Once Upon A Time In The West.

None really.  Growing up on poor side of the tracks, but none of the trials and tribulation of Hollywood movies.

American Beauty and Fight Club!

I got the same deal from my work as the two stars, one year of wages to leave.

 

And I'll never forget "I'm wondering if another woman is really the answer we need"

Not forgetting, "you're one to talk, you bloodless money grubbing freak"

Definitely Passengers. Absolutely thought-provoking in a way I had forgotten movies can be.

 

The film was criticized by the woke fem brigades and the main female actress lamely and predictably  "regretted" having played the role.

"On Rotten TomatoesPassengers holds an approval rating of 30% based on 287 reviews, with an average rating of 5/10. The website's critical consensus reads: "Passengers proves Chris Pratt and Jennifer Lawrence work well together–and that even their chemistry isn't enough to overcome a fatally flawed story."[43] On Metacritic, the film has a weighted average score of 41 out of 100, based on 48 critics, indicating "mixed or average reviews."[44] Audiences polled by CinemaScore gave the film an average grade of "B" on an A+ to F scale, while PostTrak reported filmgoers gave it a 77% overall positive score.[42]"

But I didn't watch it, mostly stick to movies of the last century.

Growing up on poor side of the tracks,

 

I have read many statements which you have submitted concerning growing up on the poor side of the tracks.

 

Yet, you have, so far, never provided any incontrovertible evidence of this.

 

OTHER than the Fact that you say you were once a chimney sweep, clambering around on the slate roofs of the rich,....

On the Main Line.

 

Do tell.

I am very interested in reading more of your stories about slate roof repair in Gladwyne and Bryn Mawr.
