on a serious note, Inglorious Basterds. He is an annoying person (in interviews) but he gets some things very right.
Movie/film suggestions.
While this is of course a forum for the discussion of all things audio/hi-fi and music, pretty much all of us are also lovers of movies, the enjoyment of which is effected by the reproduction of the sound they contain (with the exception of silent movies 
).
I've been focused on David Lynch movies since his death, but with current events so much a part of our lives at the moment, I plan on re-watching a movie I’ve seen only once, and years ago. That movie is:
The Madness Of King George. Apropos, no?

Beside watching music reviews on videos posted on YouTube by amateurs (the term used without pejorative implication), I also watch film/movie reviews. The quality of the reviews varies wildly, and I have discovered an unusually good reviewer---a youngish woman---who named her channel Deep Focus Lens (a good name, don’t you agree?). She may be an amateur (though she has a Patreon account), but she gets David Lynch to a degree Siskel & Ebert---for instance---were incapable of I just watched her review of David Lynches final full length film, Inland Empire. Here it is:

I’ll say it again: a great movie! I am not a huge Brad Pitt fan, but he played his part and delivered his lines perfectly. There are certain aspects of this movie I gave up trying to figure out, but I figure that’s just McCarthy being McCarthy, and I can enjoy it without figuring out and understanding the ’why’ for everything. |
For me it's Blade Runner. There isn't a wasted frame. I'm torn between with narration or without but I've seen it so many times I still hear the narration in my head even on the directors cut. My guilty pleasure is "One From the Heart" Tom Waits, Terry Garr and and cinematography at its finest. (story on the hand....) |
