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 wink).

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?

One film that I don't think I've seen mentioned is Matchstick Men with Nicholas Cage and Sam Rockwell. Kind of a The Sting variant, but just who gets stung? The sub-plot involves Cage's character trying to make connections with a daughter he didn't know he had.

 

For those whose taste runs to Gothic Horror, I heartily recommend The Others. It stars Nicole Kidman as a mother with two children suffering from an odd malady (an aversion to sunlight), living in an old Southern mansion, waiting for her husband to return from fighting in the United States Civil War.

The story slowly (but not boringly) unfolds as strange things start happening in (and around) the house, all leading to a surprise twist ending. Very spooky and chilling!
