"GET OUT"
-
Directed by Jordan Peele and Keegan Michael Key, they are an inseparable pair. Mr. Peele just won 2018 "Best Director".
-(these guys should get proof readers for the spelling of their names)
-
Neat premise, whites stealing blacks bodies for health reasons.
K.M.K. are his initials, so close to K.K.K whom I think stole his mind to do their bidding.

"Ice Twisters"

-
2009
First, this is Canadian financed.
The movie starts out slow and dingy.
But as they realize they'll need to quell these storms they generated
their mitigation seems ----- useful ?
They put the Haarp to use.

Bad Rapper [or somethin ?]
-
Sara Silverman with SNL peeps.
"You look like Nazi propaganda."
I guess she saw the drawings. :o
There was a little disappointment to this show.
The lead did a skit on SNL where he was recording a
track that started off good but then he goes all off key and stupid.
He should've done that in the movie.

"Rabbit Proof Fence"
-
A movie about half-cast Aborigines in Australia.
Their best case scenario would remove Negroid traits in 3 generations.
Mostly adolescent females.
Brings up the question, who was making these half-cast kids ?
I'm guessing English felons and other out-cast from Great Britain.
They where herded to communes where their genes could be protected from degeneration.
Crude but at least they tried.

Sharknado 5 Global ...
*
Well I sat through it. Something about a Sharknado with a wormhole vortex.
Turns out the Sphinx has hieroglyphs with shark gods like Horus.
Maybe the CGI improved a notch.
I don't know I guess they had fun.
Anyway Sharknados all over the globe, but I'm calling BS on the Sharkzilla in Tokyo.
Bengy Bronk sighting.

Dunkirk
*
I guess no one knows the whole story about how the French and English
ended up beached at Dunkirk because the Nazi kick their tails so thoroughly.
Something about lack of armor and getting Blitzed.
I kind of liked it. But that Spitfire that shot down a Stuka without his motor
running lasted too long. They made it seem like he was diving and climbing
for 5 minutes with no power.
What would be a good movie though is "Pre-Dunkirk". Gruesome too.
Show you how a Blitz works.
---note: I did a short story about pre Dunkirk, called "Stories Winners won't Tell"---

They Did. BBC "Dunkirk"
2017
Nazis had surrounded .5 million troops, English and French.
Near Calais to Dunkirk [northern most France] and east or westward 35 mi.
It was no more than 35 mi. by 35 mi. to start. Meaning they knew to withdraw.
Churchill knew negotiations with Hitler or Mussolini would be at their mercy, so it was fight to the last Brit.
Apparently Nazis killed surrendered troops.
When Hitler knew he had them trapped he took a respite of maybe 3 days which gave the Brits a chance
to retreat. Its for sure he didn't think they could rearm, and he pretty much kept the big ships a bay.
Anyway that 35 x 35 mi. pocket shrunk to about 5 x 5mi. or smaller.
They say they rescued 300,000 and Churchill thought 100,000 would be blessed.(a success)
The Stuka, though very effective at ground support with bombs machine guns and a cannon was outdated
after 3 years. It was a sitting duck for any fighter airplane, what we now call Interceptors or air superiority.
The A10 Warthog is the modern Stuka, I don't think you'd let them out if Interceptors were near.

Mega Dino Pack 3
-
Dino's are always fun.
I remember tripping out on them as a 4 yr old. I couldn't read but I could read pictures.
The Paleontologist's are always updating their analysis of how they looked and behaved.
Because they often prove themselves wrong.
Take the case of the "Nano-Tyrannosaurus, was it an immature Trex or something else.
I'll tell you what it was. It had long arms so it wasn't a Trex. It was less than 1/2 the size of a Trex.
But twice the size of a Velocirapture. So it was the missing link. Possibly from after the first extinction.

Beguiled (2)
*
The first Beguiled starred Clint Eastwood. It was kind of fun.
But this movie didn't improve on it much. Except Nicole Kidman stars as the school master.
The male lead should've handled her first, since she was open.
He could've had his way with almost anyone after that.

Scalene

CR 2012
It's a story about falsified evidence.
It was done with good intention but ultimately it failed because someone dies.
If I know acting Margo Martindale does a great job.

"The 3 Faces of Eve "
*
CR 1957 stars JoAnn Woodward before she became Paul Newman's squeeze.
Maybe the first documented multi-personality story.
Usually brought on by some traumatic incident as a child.
It always helps sell the film when the protagonist is a righteous women.
In this case they forced her to kiss her dead grandmother. Maybe it was something else.
I remember something as a child where I was sent upstairs to say goodbye to a dying great-grandmother.
For some reason I became scared at this dark old wrinkled women lying in bed. I think she asked me to come closer
and I become even more uncomfortable.

Alfred Hitchcock directs

cr 1964 starred Sean Connery and a crazy female actor in fact [Tippi Hedren]
because she started a lion preserve on her farm.

Marnie had said personality disorder.

"Lilies of the Field "

*
cr 1963 Black and White feel good movie.
starred Sidney Poitier
This guy just passing through gets totally used by some nuns.
Poor as dirt, these nuns, take his easy going attitude and make him build a Chapel.

I thought this was the movie where the guy builds a spiral staircase that is a precison work of art.

Great follow-up to cleanse the pallet of Bone Tomahawk.
A comedy of horny Nuns during medieval times.

Manchester By the Sea
*
Only because some money was spent on advertising and it received good reviews.
Casey Afflect's plays character with bad karma.
He loses his brother to heart condition then his children to his own stupor.
Then needs help rise a 16 old due a will's decree.
This is typical of large families, every weak irresolute recessive gene "gets" to be lived.
Many recessive genes encumbered with illness or human excesses are sad stories buoyed by reckless carnal lust.
My opinion thinks it starts with female issues but males are just as guilty.
#metoo: I got your inappropriate touching and kissing and talking and promoting fat or short females like that's a wanted life !
