  Black Bag 2025

  ★★★★½ Watched 18 Mar 2025

  Great spycraft movie.  And I can say that… I have read a John La Carre novel and I own two more.

  Also - Cate Blanchett is moving into ‘leading lady legend’ status.

  Sing Sing 2023

  ★★★★ Watched 16 Mar 2025

  Tender and touching movie, unfortunately about the power of theatre. Sincerity is like the most powerful thing in media ya know.

  But also, I liked that there was a guy named Carmine in it. Very relatable.

  Mickey 17 2025

  ★★★★ Watched 09 Mar 2025

  Really fun movie. The Mickey stuff was really well worked out, the surrounding story was less good.

  Robert Pattinson was really good - reminded me of lukefoods (that kid who eats in his car).

  Ruffalo was too on the nose for me.

  Gimme Shelter 1970

  ★★★★½ Watched 31 Jan 2025

  This movie fucking rocked. I think my future FIL may have gone to this show or tried - I’ll ask him next time I see him.

  Mick Jagger is an honorary Italian American.

  Shoutout to Corbin for recommending this as a companion piece to “Hell’s Angels” by Hunter S. Thompson.
