"Forgotten Love" 

One of the best movies I've ever seen.

This is the Google story line.

A respected surgeon professor Rafal Wilczur, who, abandoned by his wife, falls victim to a mugging and as a result of his injuries loses his memory.. Years later, poor and still suffering from amnesia, he meets his daughter. It is a touching story about love that overcomes all obstacles and makes people destined for each other find their way to one another.

Set in Thailand in the early 70's this is a charming movie about a traveling cinema troupe screening classic films across different regions in the north of the country.

Looked at a horror film last  night - "Hellraiser". If you ever come across it dont bother - ridiculous crap.  Tried to stick it out to the end but got sick of it and turned it off...

Thanks Gerry.

Don't know the movie but will avoid it if it props up on Netflix.

Sean, it was the 1987 version. Dreadful stuff, no continuity between scenes, awful acting, worse "special effects"...

"Belfast"

A nine-year-old boy experiences love, laughter, and loss as he comes of age amid the music and social tumult of the late 1960s.

Absolutely true life movie set in the late 60's Belfast at the beginning of the "Troubles"

Good soundtrack as well. 

Naturally Van Morrison features.

"Pain Hustlers"

Based on true facts.

After losing her job, a woman who's struggling to raise her daughter takes a job out of desperation. She begins work at a failing pharmaceutical startup, but what she doesn't anticipate is the dangerous racketeering opioid fraud scheme she's suddenly entered.

"Hillbilly Elegy".

An urgent phone call pulls a Yale Law student back to his Ohio hometown, where he reflects on three generations of family history and his own future.

Amy Adams, Glenn Close and Gabriel Basso star in a film from Oscar winner Ron Howard, based on J.D. Vance's bestselling memoir.

This is a super movie.

"The Killer".

This is excellent.

The new Netflix movie The Killer is a stylish new thriller starring Michael Fassbender as a stoic and ruthlessly efficient international hitman. When a hit goes wrong, his very detached and methodical life begins to fall apart. The film from director David Fincher and also features Tilda Swinton.

If you like The Smiths they feature on the soundtrack.

"Red Rocket"

Mikey Saber -- charismatic con man and washed-up porn star -- plots his return to the big time from small-town Texas in this story of an American hustler and a hometown that barely tolerates him.

Brilliant movie.

"Malbatt"

First movie of 2024 last night.

Super movie based on true facts about the Malaysian army's heroic efforts to save US troops trapped by insurgents in Mogadishu in 1993 during the "Black Hawk Down" incident. 

Their success was shamefully not recognized by the USA until 20 years later.
