Chez Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 Finsihed the HBO mini-series "Chernobyl" this week. Tense, bleak and fantastic. Link to post Share on other sites
Robby Posted June 15, 2019 Share Posted June 15, 2019 Watched Rolling Thunder Revue last night - what a hoot. Great documentary despite all the "fibs" sprinkled throughout the film. The best part was when Dylan covered Jeff Tweedy's Simple Twist of Fate and Sharon Stone sang harmony Link to post Share on other sites

brownie Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 I saw Echo in the Canyon today - Jakob Dylan’s loving tribute to the music that came out of Laurel Canyon from 1965-1967. This is some of my favorite music of all time. There were lots of old video clips, and lots of interviews with just about everyone involved in the scene. Totally worth seeing, but be prepared to see Jakob and friends like Beck and Cat Power performing this music. I was okay with that, and thought seeing Stephen Stills playing along in the studio with a guitar track recorded earlier by Eric Clapton was worth the price of admission in and of itself. David Crosby and Roger McGuinn both, separately, said some very enlightening things in this film. Link to post Share on other sites

Albert Tatlock Posted July 4, 2019 Share Posted July 4, 2019 You may be interested in watching a show on Amazon called Miranda. Ha ha. It’s quite old skool what I like to call ‘sitcom’ (see what I did there) but good stuff, and it ended after 3 series before losing any quality. Little Stevie always steals the scenes for me. Meanwhile, two Matt Berry comedy vehicles: What We Do In The Shadows (the tv spin off from the film) anf Year Of The Rabbit. At times reaching the dizzy heights he attained with series 1 of Toast Of London. Link to post Share on other sites
calvino Posted July 4, 2019 Share Posted July 4, 2019 Definitely will check it out - thanks. Link to post Share on other sites

Also - Endeavor - Season 6 is over here now. Link to post Share on other sites

hank Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 Had a busy weekend and haven't had a chance to get to Stranger Things yet. We'll probably start it tonight! Link to post Share on other sites
jff Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 Saw Amazing Grace - the Aretha Franklin documentary - over the weekend.It is pretty remarkable. There's no real story - it's just film of the live sessions (in a church) of the recording of her album. I watched this on an airplane last week. Just phenomenal. Every detail of the music was perfect. The choir arrangements, the sound of the bass, Cornell Dupree's beyond slick guitar phrases that came as little surprises. Everything. This was music on another level. I need to watch this again on a real TV through my stereo. Link to post Share on other sites

Oil Can Boyd Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 I binge-watched season three of Stranger Things this weekend We did too. I enjoyed it (to the point where my daughter convinced us to start again with season 1 right away). Link to post Share on other sites
calvino Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 We haven't gotten around to watch Season 3, yet ---- my kid has been begging me to let him watch it, but I knew it would be too much for him - he is 10 --- but last night, I turned Season 1 - Ep. 1 on for him---he lasted up to the point of Will running off the road on his bike, which is a whopping 6 minutes in or so, he then told me it was ok for me to turn it off... Also last night, The wife and I did watch episode 1 of Miranda -- definitely funny stuff. Earlier in the week we finished the 2nd season of Fleabag -- season 2 was even better than 1. Great, great stuff. Link to post Share on other sites
NoJ Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 Watched "Dr. Strangelove" last night. It still holds up as a masterpiece. I wonder why Hollywood hasn't made a sequel for it yet. Link to post Share on other sites

Probably a good thing. Season 3 is more intense/gory than the other two, IMO. We have 2 more episodes to go!
