Just finished watching Darkest Hour on Netflix.
Gary Oldman was (as I expected) brilliant in it. He's definitely one of my favourite actors and I don't ever recall seeing him give an average performance.
I first saw him in The Firm (in which he was amazing) then Leon (again in which he was amazing).
Definitely one of his generations most outstanding actors.

Tonight we watched The Peanut Butter Falcon. Very entertaining.
The Peanut Butter Falcon is an adventure story set in the world of a modern Mark Twain that begins when Zak (22), a young man with Down syndrome, runs away from the nursing home where he lives to chase his dream of becoming a professional wrestler by attending the wrestling school The Salt Water Redneck. Through circumstances beyond their control Tyler (32), a small-time outlaw on the run, becomes Zak's unlikely coach and ally. Together they wind through deltas, elude capture, drink whisky, find God, catch fish, and convince Eleanor (28), a kind nursing home employee with a story of her own, to join them on their journey.

Just watched Hell Comes To Frogtown on YouTube. I'd never seen it before but I saw people saying it's a cult classic so I thought I'd give it a go.
It was very good in that 1980's b-movie sort of way.

Scloyd thank you for the info on Peanut Butter Falcon, enjoyed it tremdously. If you have Amazon Streaming I bet you would like Troop Zero, try it.
I had to take a bunch of foster kids to a movie last weekend, and I was trying my best to get them to go see The Peanut Butter Falcon. But... they all demanded to go see Charlie's Angels. They had never even heard of the TV series it was based on, or even the first Charlie's Angels movie with Bill Murray. Luckily for me the movie didn't totally suck. But, I still wish we had seen the peanut butter movie.
Just finished "Boston Legal" (all seasons)
Just started "The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel"
...with my wife of course.

One of our favorites. My wife has the hobby of doing stand up comedy, so we relate. I write funnier than her, but I suck at public speaking.
I don't have Amazon streaming, but I did see the preview of Troop Zero yesterday at the theater when I took my grandson to see Doolittle. Troop Zero looks good. May have to watch it at my daughter and son-in-laws.
Getting ready to watch some more Sherlock Holmes starring Jeremy Brett.
"Troop Zero" with the childgrands.
Third season of "Cardinal" with Swmbo. She just came home from a triple by-pass and murder seems to calm her.

Different strokes for different folks. I just saw it and would give it an A+, one of the best movies I've seen and a complete tour de force. Midway, on the other hand, was a C.
On the box, I've been binge watching Next Generation. Mostly I don't watch anything, it's more like using TV as radio while I'm working on other things.
Yep Jessie Ive been watching the Impeachment Debacle with the sound turned off.
