Dirty Dancing...guilty pleasure of mine. Not the best movie obviously, great soundtrack. Next up: Clue. Hilarious to me, not so much my father. Eileen Brennan does a fantastic job.

Funny Face
(Edens, 1957)
* A pure delight. Almost cannot think of a single scene I would change... that's almost, 'cuz there is one:
Scene set @ "underground cafe" @ which Hepburn and a couple of garçons get into a bit of, as Danny Kaye would'a put it re: the film White Christmas, "choreography". I'd have found a way to fit Astaire into that scene, @ least near the finale. Probably jus' me, but I'd have loved to see a genuine hoofer, one who was minted @ the Golden Age of Hollywood Musicals, put that beatnick material through some changes.
With Astaire and Hepburn on screen, it's easy to look past some of the other performers and their characterizations, Kay Thompson (as Maggie Prescott) in particular. And some excellent numbers, of course leading the pack the wonderful "How Long Has This Been Going On?"

Watched Passengers again - on Bluray disc. Watched with a friend that had never seen it before, and she really enjoyed it. I always like seeing different ideas of what the future will be like. I'd be one of the first people in line to get on a ship that would travel for 120 years while I'm in hypersleep. The world has changed so much in my life - half of the length of that trip - that it would be amazing to see what it would be like after 120 years.

10 Cloverfield Lane. Great Movie!
Watch "A Boy and His Dog".
Glass. Good movie , a little disappointed in the ending but I guess they had to end the trilogy like that .

Umm, you do realize you wouldn't see how the world changed since you would be millions of miles away on a different planet? Provided you didn't wake up and then die on the journey.

All The Money In The World. Good movie, didn't know J Paul Getty was such a self-centered prick.
Don’t miss Cloverfield and The Cloverfield Paradox.

"Cut Bank" (2015)
This is one of those "small films" that often flies under the radar for most of the general public. It takes place in the tiny burg of Cut Bank, Montana ("The Coldest Place In The US"), where a young couple dreams of escaping the boring existence they must endure. After accidentally witnessing and filming an apparent murder, the young man decides to use his video to claim a big reward. But, all is not what it seems, and there are many twists and turns before him. There`s a great cast at work here, with Liam Hemsworth and Teresa Palmer as the couple, and John Malkovich, Billy Bob Thornton, and Bruce Dern in strong supporting roles. Definitely worth watching.

Enjoyed this movie. Worth checking out, but not for everyone.
Was Miguel Inclan superb as Cochise, or what? Very powerful when he states his grievances and says the corrupt Indian agent is “worse than war”.
