Ah the mid 80ās. Yes, I do recall a cricket match being filmed in our area. I didnt make the cut for that scene, I was just in a scene with Hugh Grant in the Courtroom.
Well impressed to discover another Sotonian appeared in the same Arthouse Gay Porn movie Maurice!
Remarkable
Highly recommended. 
Classic dialogue, sublime acting 
Broadsword calling Danny Boy. Part 117.
Watched a couple of films today. Rush, the dramatisation of the rivalry between James Hunt and Niki Lauda. Very good film, even if Hemsworthās English accent seems a bit off. Genuinely recommended if you havenāt seen it already.
The next one is a bit more obscure, and to my mind, is an enjoyable 7/10. Office Uprising. Itās derivative. I can think of around six films it pays homage to, but itās not a spoof and exists in its own right. Reminded me of a good 1980s comedy.
I never knew they had 6 wheeled formula 1 cars until I watched Rush, I thought it was some stunt car that had made it on film by mistake.
Just watched The Sting for the first time ever. What a film, and it had me thinking how period pieces made closer to the time end up being loads better. There are people in that cast with a living memory of the 1930s.
Both the leads are excellent, as is Robert Shaw, a.k.a. Quint from Jaws. I particularly liked āThe Hookā, where they rob him of his wallet then do him up in a game of high stakes poker.
Up to Rocky 4 this week on Terrestial TV.
Damn they were great films.
Lots of faults but bloody great to watch in order again
Seat 25 (Prime) - British film about a woman who wins a one way trip to Mars. Earth based no spaceshit - all about family, relationships, emotions - really recommend it.
Mrs_CS has clearly been slipping oestrogen in my coffee
I watched this while sheās off watching Eurovision
( @Polski_Filip is probably the only other one watching it judging by the Eurovision thread 
)
Have you seen Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid? Made in the same era, also with Redford and Newman in the leads. They had a great chemistry on screen.
Indeed, saw it a few times on the big screenā¦even found myself in ghost town Grafton UT where Katherine Ross was school marm and the bicycle scene was shotā¦
My daughter said watch this film. We & the kids (3 & 6) loved it.
Some weeks later.
Start watching. Oh meh.
Sort of a cartoon that sort of goes a bit Scott Pilgrim v The World weird/Tik Tok ish.
I stick with it. Itās OK, and slowly becomes daft, then stupid, then full on silly.
The finale is tbh epic. Not from a storyline, not from cinematography but from some absolutely STUPID but brilliantly timed jokes.
Daft and obvious and, Iām in bloody tears.

Logic circuits.
Iāve only had one beer and I still have a dumb grin on my face.
No wonder the kids are still running round shouting

Total stupid bollox. Marvellous waste of 110 minutes.
Dog, Pig.
No stop it ffs
Warning.
May cause harm if watched with beers
Iām having increasing difficulty deciphering your posts Phil, what is name of film please?
The Mitchellās v The Machines.
Netflix.
7.8 on IMDB
98% on Rotten Tomatoes
Ratings wise.
Apparently its āquirkyā just like me I guess
Itās the plethora of drugs heās taking while building/ demolishing his place.
Plethora?!
Jeez, Iāve come over all @Fowllyd - errrmā¦not in the sense you automatically thought 
Iām still on my odyssey through early 70s film-making.
Just watched The Parallax View and canāt help wishing films today had the same cojones as those back then. This is obviously based on the Kennedy assassinations, particularly the patsy angle (especially Sirhan Sirhan).
Itās difficult to imagine something like this being made now, in the sense that it flat-out challenges accepted state dogma. Sure, weāve got a fair number of ādeep stateā type films, but these are all just villains of the week - the 70s films were clearly inspired by real events. Plus, most films today seek a pleasant denouement. This does not.
Loved it. Might rewatch Capricorn One soon.
First point - am in total agreement
Second point, for the love of God (or insert deity of preference) what the hell are you on?!
obviously
Just Google Capricorn One.
Youāll be on a search engine.
Nope - watched it way back when.
Should I watch it again with the years weighing heavily on me and find that itās a Marvellous film despite what a callow youngster thought?
