  Once 2007

  ★★★★★ Rewatched 14 Mar 2025

  An underrated golden gem of a musical. The music and the performances by Glen Hansard and Markéta Irglová are perfectly pitched.

  The Pride and the Passion 1957

  ★½ Watched 13 Mar 2025

  Why is this film so unbelievably dull and how did Frank Sinatra get cast in that role?

  Prince of Jutland 1994

  ★★★★ Watched 26 Jun 2024

  Gritty historical revenge tale. Based on the story that Shakespeare based Hamlet on. A really stacked cast of brilliant actors even in the minor roles. A young Christian Bale impresses as the main character. Not the perfect film but a great watch all the same.

  Irma la Douce 1963

  ★★★★½ Watched 10 Feb 2025

  A brilliant classic Hollywood romance comedy.

  Jack Lemmon and Shirley McClaine are excellent as the two leads. So engaging and watchable.

  The only downside is that it does run longer than it probably needed to. But what fun.
