What western doesn't pepper arrows....Christian Bale is astonishing as usual and I like Crowe.

Have you seen Bale's debut in Empire of the Sun .....birth of a superstar.

Spielberg was very canny in his casting. Wunderkin

yeah ....I do like musicals and I also like Meryl Streep but ....

•••



I like Emma Watson and this is pure pavlova.
Did not know she danced ballet professionally for 8 years. Thought she would have made enough off Harry Potter cycle for a life of leisure.
Emma trained at the Royal Ballet School and danced professionally for 8 years with London City Ballet and English National Ballet.
Top notch Brit cast and I need to get through a few British productions on my BritBox stream. I noticed Ghandi on the list.

I loved the original book of that, and the sequels...

If you've not seen the original it is worth finding, hilarious and all true.

Excellent mix of gore and humour - with an OC lead.

Struggled with the Scots accent but excellent production values and a good twist.


Saw Series when it first arrived ....did not realize up to Season 7 :o
Been there, miserable place but in keeping with the weather here right now, rainy and chilly, fits my mood. 2" of rain in 24 hr

Dog shit.
The first one had a fun energy. The second was abysmal.

There's a prequel too which I'll watch if I get really bored.
100% verifiable facts or your money back. Anti-fascist. Enemy of woo - theistic or otherwise. Cloth is not an antiviral. Imagination and fantasy is no substitute for tangible reality. Wishing doesn't make it real.
