I just finished watching Beautiful Creatures on HBO a few minutes ago. I guess it's directed toward the Twilight/Divergent/Hunger Games audience, but I thought it was way better than any of those other movies. https://youtu.be/r9rjhB7KWEc "I'm yet another resource-consuming kid in an overpopulated planet raised to an alarming extent by Hollywood and Madison Avenue, poised with my cynical and alienated peers to take over the world when you're old and weak!" - Calvin, "Calvin & Hobbes" | |||

http://m.imdb.com/title/tt0011237/ The Golem and How He Came into the World. It is a silent movie with the limits of the time period, but very watchable. The incidental music is appropriate but never too loud. Another quiet movie with a golem-like character is the original The Day the Earth Stood Still. TDTESS is a classic. Forbidden Planet. "It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye". The Little Prince, Antoine de Saint-Exupery, pilot and author, lost on mission, July 1944, Med Theatre. | |||

I just went though my entire Netflix history and pulled out the films that I remembered I enjoyed. An asterisk next to it means I consider it a must watch. Pan's Labyrinth* Departures The Swedish version of The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo* The Sapphires Hector and the Search for Happiness Nowhere In Africa* Burke and Hare(Be warned, there is a quite graphic scene with a corpse) The Sicilian Girl Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog Tucker and Dale vs. Evil Beneath Hill 60 The Way* The Perfect Host The Fighter* The Art of Travel Outsourced For My Father* Moon* As Far as my Feet Will Carry Me* The Wind That Shakes the Barley Flame and Citron Walk on Water The Boy in the Striped Pajamas | |||

This is a cult movie and is a must see. I'd add Pulp Fiction to the list as well. Jim ________________________ "If you can't be a good example, then you'll have to be a horrible warning" -Catherine Aird | |||

HBO (or was it ShowTime) recently ran "A Serious Man" This was produced and directed by the Coens. Some pretty good entertainment right there. Men fight for liberty and win it with hard knocks. Their children, brought up easy, let it slip away again, poor fools. And their grandchildren are once more slaves. -D.H. Lawrence | |||
