The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly - 9/10
I haven't watched it in a while... Still the best Western of all time, IMO.

I really enjoyed it, Foster and Sheen were great and it was a well done thriller. I'd recommend it, especially to you, maybe not so much to somebody who expects a faster pace in their films.

Watched this a couple of nights ago and dug it too.


Last watched:

We Jam Econo: The Story of The Minutemen

Very cool documentary probably the best I've seen since End Of The Century. There's a bunch of great live footage of these guys in action. Inspirational. 666/10

ace in the hole (1951)

gripping, potent look at not only the power of the media itself, but the people that give it that power in the first place. it plays like a less satirical, but more intense network, and is very much still appropriate today (if not more so). everything is just so well-done, kirk douglas absolutely nails the main role.

highly recommended for alky, __v__, neverending, and despare.
