Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri

Phenomenal performances by Frances McDormand, Sam Rockwell, and Woody Harrelson, and a great plot that never seems to go where you think it will, yet remains true to how you would expect people to act. One of the best films we've seen in a long time.

Agreed. I loved it.

Absolutely Anything with Simon Pegg on Netflix. I really like Simon Pegg.

I'm watching "Christmas Icetastrophe"

Good grief, it has a 3.8 on Imdb. That's subterranean. See if I last 10 minutes.
You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really?

I'm not usually one for films dealing with the supernatural but I do hope to see Harmony when it is released next year. Shot entirely in the Illawarra it stars a young woman from Australia's long-running Home and Away. She was on the brink of stardom but is now seriously injured by a triple-fatality auto accident.

Saw Tomorrow Land on Cable TV. Was pretty good. fantasy/sci-fi It had a lower IMdb rating than I expected. I missed the beginning, but figured out what was going on. Maybe beginning was bad.

Saw “Get Out” It was a good film. Not a great film, due to a predictable plot, but well acted. I give it seven antlers out of ten.

Predictable? Some parts of it for sure, but what these people were actually up to before the blind guy explains it? I could see being able to guess it, but I wouldn't call that part of the plot predictable. As I remember anyway.

Illawarra ?
South of Sydney. A large area about one third of which remains unspoiled and unsettled beauty but which is becoming more developed. A good many films are shot there or atleast partially shot there, Corey Pearson, noted resident of the Illawarra, raised forty million dollars for his writing and directing debut, the supernatural thriller, Harmony.
