@Bretrick Do you speak any languages other than English?
No, I can watch subtitled movies.
Then seek out any quoting Mondo Cane (aka dog world) from 1962. Gualtiero Jacopetti has a way of shocking which is never forgotten.
Thank you. I will have a look around.
More of a rockumentary than unusual, but definitely fun:
and pretty much anything by the Coen Brothers.
I saw this some years ago…
Quite wacky at times, certainly unusual in my book, terrific storyline loosely based on Homer’s Odyssey I believe and cracking soundtrack.
Must add it to the DVD collection
Totally agree @Chilliboot, a reaaallly greeeaaaat movie! I’ve seen it twice, love the music too. The Coen brothers make unusual but definitely memorable films, worthy of being watched!
Fargo, another one.
Yep, I do like to indulge in a little bluegrass from time to time. I might even ask Alexa to indulge me this evening
I’m still a bit skeptical about these hi-tech “invaders” , but I felt like this about smartphones a few years back, so I’ll probably succumb in the end.
If you enjoyed Fargo and *Oh Brother, Where Art Thou * then Saving Arizona and The Big Lebowski would be the next of the Coen brothers’ movies I would recommend.
Gosh!
I’d forgotten all about that film. Yes it was very moving in places. I watched it with my late wife years ago, I think we must have hired it from Blockbuster on VHS.
No Way Out (1987) from Kevin Costner is worth watching IMO.
No Way Out (1987 film) - Wikipedia
Believe it or not, France’s best selling film is Bienvenue Chez les Ch’tis. Great film. Les Ch’tis is slang for those who live in the unreconstructed north of France. Think Yorkshire with more sun - but as much bad teeth.
I’ll look for this, I love French films. Try “The New Girlfriend “.
Thanks, I’ll look out for this. Also, as its a favourite, find Untouchable with Omar Si (easy on the eye). Much better than the US re-make.
Yes it was much better than the remake, but they usually are!
‘Somewhere In Time’ with Christopher Reeve and Jane Seymour. An unusual love story (weepy) with a great soundtrack by John Barry.
