Blackhat 2015
Somewhat convoluted, too-long spy dealy from Micheal Mann. Sorely miscast Thor guy must track down a cyber-hacker who wants to, I dunno, make money on the stock market by doing absurdly crazy things? Terrible sound quality had voices at different levels (had to put on the subtitles) but good cinematography and some quality action scenes. Not bad, not great, expected more.

Pale Flower 1964
Super cool Japanese noir finds a recently released hitman from prison getting drawn back int0 the seedy life of gambling drugs and crime while falling for an unstable young woman. Great cinematography and score helps this stylish little number along. So much smoking.

What a wonderful, melodramatic, over-the-top western. Joan Crawford, baby! A barrel full of fun!

Local Hero 1983
Lovely little film that went a direction I wasn't expecting. Needed more Lancaster but this was a nice tasty small treat. Podcast coming soon!
