Yes, I agree with you and I don't think the issue will be with premiere storytellers, but as time goes by, and as with most things, imitation and fads seem to be guiding forces in storytelling in hopes of cashing in instead of producing compelling stories and acting.
One odd thing is how film noirs often clock in at just over an hour and rarely more than two.
And it makes me wonder if epics like Horizon are doomed from the start (another aspect of the impact of technology changes and stream includes how long films at home come with pause, rewind, watch again, or captioning, while none of this remains in theaters).
Just sort of rambling...
Hm, makes me curious how many performances of him the OP has seen.
This is more inline with his roles than Oppenheimer was.
Please do something about the political junk on the Trending page. Please. All those things do is create more hostility, fighting, and negative experiences here.
I find it interesting how interpretations of scenes can be so different. I felt those scenes were central to the development of Tye Sheridan's character. They were genuine in their depictions and visually explored his own changing behavior and personality, which to me, greatly enhanced the telling of the story.
As for the "manky' comment, wait until you age a bit then maybe your opinions of older people might change a bit.
Thank you for the link. It was interesting reading.
Your infantile reply shows not only are you clueless about sexual assault and abuse but you lack the sincerity of a longer reply. I just hope none of your loved ones never encounter the victimization his victims did. But then again, you probably wouldn't give a shit anyway.
Yes, let's placate your entertainment desires and forget his victims just so you can be happy.
I don't know too much about others, but my thoughts are the third season is like the splitting of the chrysalis with the beauty of what is inside slowly being revealed as the show has developed from an egg, to a pupa, to the chrysalis, to season four.
Or sort of like each season has been a volume of change and each volume has chapters on the characters following how they evolve and grow.
Have you seen the third season of The Bear, and if so, do you think like I do that many are missing the point of the third season of The Bear and possibly the overall arc of the series so far?
From the responses, I'm pretty surprised more don't use YouTube for movies and programs. YouTube is like a hidden, untapped source for so many movies. I'll use Plex to do most searches for programs and movies (it searches Hoopla and Kanopy, too - two other free resources for movies and programs), and if it doesn't show up there, I'll try YouTube, and often times they will be there and especially, older film noir movies and movies not as popular as the big blockbusters, like slasher/horror flicks from the 60s,70s, and 80s.
Not only that, the algorithm for finding similar titles isn't too bad, either. I watched this one crime flick, The Touch of Flesh, from the 60s that had a beatnik-hip and lurid vibe to it and after watching it, three or four others similar to this genre that I had never heard of popped up. And all without commercials.
It is especially good for us cheap ones.
Is sites like this were more viral, this would be a heck of a marketing ploy.
Her hubby dropped out and endorsed Donald Trump.
They are out there if one is willing to look. With streaming, world wide quality programing is available and especially if one has no issue with subtitles or dubbing.
I was a teen when the first video/VCR/beta machine rentals started and became popular. First, there was one business doing this, and then shortly later a second opened after it was realized how popular such a store became.
We would go in and rent either a VCR or Beta machine and then videos of a limited supply. Also, back then, a movie on VCR tape was around ninety dollars.
I wonder if it was two real pig snouts and the reason he gave them to her was to encourage her to become her own Piggy and not allow herself to be victimized again.
And how you had to go back again and again to try and snatch the latest popular release.
Or how, in these rental places, copies of the movie would be behind the video box/sleeve and the disappointment when none were left.
Here is another......eating horribly sweet cereal with Saturday cartoons and waiting until wrestling at noon (and where wrestling fans would curse local broadcasters when Saturday wrestling was pre-empted with things like spelling bees or bowling or some other interrupting local event.

Ah, you and I have similar thoughts about holiday seasons. I just read that it is now felt that July 5th is the kickoff to the Halloween season.
Also, I've noticed with the changes in the Christmas holiday season that the intensity of that season is not what it used to be because it has become so diluted by the extension of shopping days.
