Movies 2023


 Movies 2023

Life in Antarctic- i bought this book right after I cam back from Antarctic but never read it.  Now, I want to spend three months working there.  But I don't think I am eligible to do so.  I would have to pass a physical and that isnt going to happen.

The Fablemans- I'm not sure if I liked this movie or if I would recommend it to anyone.

80 For Brady- This was a mindless, predictable, timely movie.  It was released right before the Super Bowl so, of course, I had to go see it.

Women Talking- There were some moving, profound statements made and then there were some slow, slow scenes.  I thought it was going to be great because Fran McDonald was in it.  But she only had a cameo role which was a disappointment.

Knock On The Cabin Door- this movie was terrible.

Living- I had high expectations because Bill Nighy was in it but it was boring, boring, boring.

Oscar Shorts- Documentaries- I think the movie about the white man converting to Islam is going to win.

Edie- I didn’t like the character and I hoped she failed. 

Beckoning Silence- written by the same author who wrote Touching The Void, he told another great, horrible story abut moutain climbing.

The Quiet Girl- I just took this book out of the library in March and listened to it twice so that i could adjust to the Irish accent before I went to Ireland.

The Lost King- the sotry of Richard II.  I know nothing about Richard II but apparently, Shakespeare maligned his character.

Air- the story of Michael Jordan's mother's efforts to get him the best endorsment contract.

Are you There God, It's Me Margaret- I was surprised how much I enjoyed this movie.

About My Father- medicare at best.

Blackberry- This was an interesting movie but it was so poorly shot that it triggered my motion sickness.

Asteroid City- I loved this movie and I have to go see it again as I missed too much of the nuances.

Songs of Freedom- There are some dreadful people in this world.

Barbie- OMG, this movie was so much fun.

Oppenheimer- This was no Barbie movie.

Hook- I think I've seen this move five times now.

Theatre Camp- this movie was fun.

Best of Show- Ive seen this movie about 5 times and I still laugh every time I see it.

The Endless Summer- This movie nurtured my wanderlust to travel the world.

Flora and Son @ BMFI- I couldnt understand much of the Irish accent so I missed important lines.

Golda with Jaye.  I want to watch it again.

Taylor Swift - with Tricia- I am not a Taylor Swift fan but I thought i had to go to the movie to see what all the hype is all about.  I had planned to stay for an hour or two nut not much longer.  And I found that I loved every minute of the concert.  She is quite a performer.  I am still not a fan.  But I get her appeal now.

I am The Noise @ Theater N with Jaye

Dave @the Uptown- I saw this when it came out and liked it and liked it again this time.

The Big Chill @ the Uptown

Bohemian Rhasopdy @ The Uptown

Holdovers @ BMFI- I thought the movie was boring.

Casablanca with Tricia- This is the first time I watched this movie.

Nyad @ Jaye's house- I loved this movie.  What determination!!!!

Elf @ Uptown

Wonka- Of course, I loved it.  I love the theme of this movie.  I've seen it with Gene  Wilder and then again with Johnny Depp and now with Timothy Challamette.
