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?

"Killer Joe"   Never seen Matthew McConaughey like this before. Never will again.

The Departed is on right now, and I've seen it enough that I am not going to watch it tonight (particularly with commercials), but what a great movie with a great starring cast (Leonardo DiCaprio, Matt Damon, Jack Nicholson), and a great supporting cast (including Martin Sheen, Mark Wahlberg, and Alec Baldwin)  that did a great job.  This was also on my top seven list and was also the movie that turned me into a DiCaprio fan.

I too, rewatched recently. Really love all the supporting cast. They contribute highly to the film.

The violence in The Departed was necessary and well done, and that was another aspect that made it a great movie.  I'd say the same for Black Mass.

with all due respect @immatthewj it was a weird movie. It totally missed the Whitey Bulger and Boston aspects. Nicholson (I love him) butchered it. The way Scorsese got New Jersey right in Goodfellas, he missed the scene in the Departed. I lacked the ambience a 100%. OK, maybe 90%.
