Watched "Dark Shadows" ... again. I love that movie. "where off route nine?" heh Stupid politics aside, Johnny Depp is a great actor.
We're watching "Black Sails". It's not new (I believe it first came out in 2014) and Steve watched it on his own several years back. But he'd always told me he thought I'd like it and he was certainly right. I'm addicted! But we've only a few episodes left and I'll be sad to see the end of the series.
Oppenheimer on Prime I was curious... too long too slow watched in 1hr intervals Interesting but not great The Gentlemen series on Netflix Short series , lots of action, kept me me interested Had to pause in the middle of episodes, otherwise I just keep watching Warrior - Netflix 3 seasons kungfu action, San Francisco China town wars among clans I liked it
Warrior - Netflix 3 seasons kungfu action, San Francisco China town wars among clans I liked it[/QUOTE] I have just watched Warrior too, really enjoyed it. It’s from the writings of Bruce Lee.
We just finished watching the series “The Gentlemen” on Netflix. Loved it. We’re also watching “Shogun” and enjoying it immensely. But it’s like the “old days” where you had to watch a TV show week to week. Well, I guess it built patience.
We just finished binge watching two Harlan Coben series on Netflix, "Safe" and "The Stranger". Both were enjoyable thrillers with twisty plots and unpredictable (for us anyway) endings.
Back to Black, I am not a particular fan of Amy Winehouse, but the girl playing her was absolutely spot on, including doing the singing, sad story but recommended, if only for the songs, very atmospheric of the times.
This evening we finally watched Oppenheimer. I read the book (all 600 pages) and thoroughly enjoyed it and I'm not typically a biography fan. Since reading the book I've been very curious about what the movie would be like. My hubby, Steve, has yet to read the book. I have to say that the movie really focused so much on just a portion of the book that I was somewhat disappointed although I did think it was well cast and filmed. But there was so much important detail that was left out. Steve really liked the movie but now I'm curious to see what he thinks of the book and how it compares to the movie.
