  7. This is one of the best films that I watched in 2020. I won’t spoil the plot for you, since I had no idea about this film other than it had Aubrey Plaza who gives one of the most amazing performances last year. I will say to try to watch it with someone following CDC guidelines, so that you can dissect it after. There’s a lot going on. (Available to rent on iTunes etc.)

  9. A somewhat interesting & innovative biopic that I found to be extremely familiar after watching The Current War (much more compelling film) a few years prior. Ethan Hawke’s performance is better than the kitchen sink style of the film. Hawke has a great singing voice in this film...about Tesla. (Available on Hulu, even though it is not a Hulu Original.)
  10. The Wolf Of Snow Hollow was a pleasant surprise that mixed small town humor with some decent horror. Robert Forster is great here in his last film role, but writer/director/actor Jim Cummings is fantastic wearing all 3 hats. (Available to rent on iTunes etc.)
  11. Here are 2 of the best directorial debuts that I watched in 2020: Natalie Erika James used the haunted house sub genre of horror to weave a tale about something that we all have to deal with eventually as we get older and so do the people around us. This felt like an extremely personal film as a form of therapy. (Might be on Hulu soon due to their exclusive deal with IFC Films.) Andrew Patterson’s The Vast Of Night was a breathtaking sci-fi experience and shows what you can do with a $700k budget. It felt like watching a hybrid of early Spielberg movies written by Richard Link
  12. Thank you for the kind words!

  14. Enjoyable late 70s romp about cars and Mark Hamill growing up to enjoy other things like Annie Potts. Cameron Crowe’s long forgotten follow up to Fast Times At Ridgemont High was an 80s blast (writing credit only). Music licensing fees have held this to obscurity for quite a bit. The version that I watched had songs from Madonna & Prince removed, even though they are credited in the end. Eddie Van Halen provides the original soundtrack. There’s even a Ron Wood cameo during the huge party scene. Chris Penn, Lea Thompson, Eric Stoltz, Ilan Mitchell-Smith & Rick Moranis are all g

  19. Crowded House - Dreamers Are Waiting due in late March. Very strange to see them having tour dates in early 2021 in Europe & Australia/New Zealand, but I understand why. Neil Finn said that they plan on filming at least one show for promo purposes, if they try to tour the States in late summer like he mentioned during one recent FB Q & A. I can’t see that happening. Definitely a bucket list band.
