hi JB
sorry for the pause, needed to think about other things
Films. There are so many good films but nothing which strikes me as much as the 2 i've mentioned - there's nothing else i've watched 5 times.
i've bookmarked "the way" to watch sometime later, and somehow looking at the preview from "wild" reminded me of "Silk" with michael pitt and keira knightly - but it's no longer on youtube ... Where else can we watch good films free? youtube seems to be removing them all, and for practial purposes on this thread it would be good to give links - and i can find none ... and i'm fed up with looking! ... so ask if you want more info on anything.
you seem to like the sort of film are these people alone in nature - sorry cant remember any
i like tear jerkers like Nell or anthropological stuff like Fire
"Temple Grandin" an autist who revolutionised cattle management - is the only film a bit like Nell - Claire Daines is the actress.
Freedom Writers with Hillary Duff is another which i cried at the sheer beauty of - Summerhill is another similar
Memoirs of a Geisha about japan in 1930s is wonderful
Apocalypto - about the 1400s in middle america (not apocalypse now) is amazing
then i could make a long list but somewhere near the top would be a lot of Kevin Costner films
especially The Postman, and Dragonfly (2002)
The Sleeping Dictionary is sort of a favourite - somehow reminds me of me
if you want to find out about eastern christianity The Island is excellant - a russian film
and Ghandi - obviously - you've already seen
and actually for these wild lonely films which you like - i've probably watched "The Trap" 5 times with rita tushingham and oliver reed - lovely film
that should keep you busy for a few hours - love - simple
