Suit and Mrs Suit are totally faking it! And their love was the best thing about this show that isn't named Matt Bomer!

Frank: i didn't really know anything about it going in, but it was really really good. "i love you all" is amazing.

We Are The Best is wonderful: Swedish movie from the director of Together, about 3 12 year old girls who form a punk band.
― #Research (stevie), Tuesday, 13 January 2015 09:37 (nine years ago) link
^Yeah Frank is great! I was fearing two hours of the ultimate indie-quirk house band. Don't be scared off! Lots of left turns wld watch again.
Second We Are The Best!—I took my 11- and 8-year old daughters to see it at the local art house, replete with subtitled fucks/cunts/assholes which was kinda tough BUT it was "uplifting" in the least offensive way.

Watched the movie wondering how long it'll be till my 8-month-old daughter has enough hair to cut it like Karla's, tbh.

thought it was weird that The Interview is up already! but then i stopped watching it about a half hour in. wasn't funny to me. started watching the bag man with cusack and de niro but i couldn't do it. like a bad 90's movie. so i watched tim roth liar t.v. show instead.
― scott seward, Monday, 26 January 2015 18:16 (nine years ago) link
scott, that sounds almost exactly like what I would do in that situation, including falling back on Lie to Me even though I've seen every episode twice already. (Except I probably wouldn't watch The Interview in the first place? But everything else is perfect.)

The Painting (Le tableau) (2011)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G5NNf1lrj2c
If you're in the mood for a visually engaging French language animation that touches upon class issues/racism and theology in a narrative about painted characters seeking their painter, literate kid friendly (though with artistic toplessness), its rather fine.

TV Junkie, rick kirkham's video diaries of his drug addiction and fucked up life, is pretty good. he's comes off pretty badly - he def sees himself as the star of his own movie, and he's very manipulative and abusive - but v compelling to watch.

yeah, i noticed today (and just mentioned in the detritus thread) that it's now netflixable. kind of pisses me off, though, because i've been holding off on watching a crappy dvd rip for a while now, and the netflix stream - even forced to max resolution - is no better. cross >:[
not sure whether to just watch what's available or wait for better quality.

Last night I thought I had come out the other side of Netflix, unable to find a single thing I wanted to see. UNTIL, while scrolling through nature documentaries, I found LEAVE IT TO BEAVERS--and it's just the most charming thing. Everyone in it made me very happy.
So clearly it was important to break my heart as quickly as possible, and the best tool for that was the doc ALIVE INSIDE about playing music for dementia patients.
― Orson Wellies (in orbit), Friday, 6 February 2015 13:58 (nine years ago) link
I can't understand people who claim to run out of things to see on Netflix.
― Josh in Chicago, Friday, 6 February 2015 15:34 (nine years ago) link
Like, Netflix is great, UNLESS you hate movies, in which case, you're out of luck.

Well exactly. I'm going to need an endless supply of episodes of PEAKY BLINDERS and CROSSING LINES, and y'all can let me know when SCANDAL gets onto nf. Otherwise, nah.

i think the problem is more that netflix conditions most ppl to casual lazy comfort-viewing, like aw man look they have 5 haneke films ive been meaning to screen, maybe some day **checks hulu for new parks & rec episode**
― gr8080, Friday, 6 February 2015 15:39 (nine years ago) link
Really the other problem is that I don't have a DVD player or drive, so I only get the instant options. Which is especially disappointing after checking for a bunch of stuff I did want to see, and them not having it on Instant.
