johnnyAU 3,630 Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 The Dig was good. Excellent acting by Ralph Fiennes. Nomadland was decent. Kind of a documentary style movie. You can't go wrong with Frances McDormand. Bit of a downer, but interesting. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShocksMyBrain 9,362 Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 (edited) Watched There Will Be Blood today for the first time. I can definitely see why No Country For Old Men won best picture while Daniel Day Lewis won best actor. I can’t say I’ll want to watch it again anytime soon, unless I just want to see an awesome exhibition of acting. Paul Dano did a great job as well, but I’ve always liked him.

Totally agreed about TWBB. I thought it was a phenomenal film, but that was a loaded category that year. But it was phenomenal primarily because of the acting and cinematography. And I've tried a couple times to rewatch it but it is grim and a bit of a slog. As for NCFOM, it was indeed a better movie. And tying the Coen Bros back to Fran McDormand, I finally saw Blood Simple recently and it is fantastic and she is fantastic in it. Highly, highly recommend if you haven't seen it.

DavidJo23 7 Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 Me and my partner are now watching the Snowpiercer. Jennifer Lynn Connelly's acting is phenomenal. I'm literally watching "Snowpiercer" just to see her. She's divine. In my opinion, the plot is just great. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

augolf1716 21,103 Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 Some will not be interested in this movie due to the type of music but I highly recommend watching. It gives great behind the scenes of the 60's music. Its not very well known but if you have time go for it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
