Last movie you saw?

[Bonaventure]

Dude, didn't know you had a podcast. Good to see you around.

Is Brady gonna get his fifth?

Thanks - just something I started last year because I couldn't find a podcast that discussed movies from a Catholic perspective; so I said, what the heck, I guess I'll try it.

But yeah, I think Brady will get it.  I actually (*ducks*) like the Patriots.  Who are you rooting for?

I think he'll get it too.

The lion in winter

It's been months since I saw it, but Hell or High Water will probably hit a note with a lot of the folks on this forum. Definitely give it a look.

Also, Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them was way better than I expected. If you read the Harry Potter series and didn't like most of the film adaptations(I'm looking at you, last 4 movies), then you'll probably enjoy this movie.

Lights Out, again. So good.

Oh Brother Where Art Thou. Amusing and entertaining.

Oh Brother Where Art Thou. Amusing and entertaining.

One of the most entertaining scripts ever written.

I have the soundtrack as well as the movie. Enjoy it, too.  I should watch it again.

Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge. My friends are big on the bollywood.

Arrival (2016) Very intense and suspenseful.

Hacksaw Ridge(best movie of the year) and Silence(don't know what to think,  dramatic and at times very moving but then again perverted in a way. Did Japanese villagers really didn't know that Jesus was God and had an inadequate or ever a tiny understanding of Christianity? In my opinion a wasted opportunity to show the real Kakure Kirishitan but then again it was based on a book. Does anyone know how closely does the movie follow the story-line of the book.

It is a difficult, engrossing, but ultimately disappointing (to me) book.  The movie was incredibly faithful to it, for better and worse, with some small but significant exceptions.

I talk extensively about both the movie book here:  http://catholicmovieguy.com/2017/01/27/126/.  I also did a podcast on Hacksaw Ridge that you might enjoy: http://catholicmovieguy.com/2016/11/07/catholic-movie-guy-podcast-episode-4-hacksaw-ridge-top-5-war-films/.

Fanny and Alexander, here:

Now this I would subscribe to, even after the free trial is up. SO many excellent movies! 

Fanny and Alexander is going to need another viewing. There was so much packed in there! I wish there were a book version. I do better with books.

Thank. Oh yes you have mentioned your podcast, sorry my memory ain't that good anymore I'll definitely listen to it.

My Life So Far.  Definitely not recommended.

Places in the Heart. Sally Field plays such a strong woman in that movie: what an excellent model of virtue.
