"Stalingrad" 1993


A brutal antiwar film. War is hell and this is 2 hrs and 15 mins. of hell. Something about the lead actor bothered me. I noticed him from other movies but couldn't place him. When I did place him it changed my mood about the film. Even a doomed screaming soldier who had been sliced in half reminded me of Monty Python. The star was the same actor who played FEGELEIN, FEGELEIN, FEGELEIN! in the Hitler reacts series of clips on youtube. ( "Downfall" 2004 )

Did Anyone See This Yet?

Can You Ever Forgive Me? Dark humored but with brilliant performances. Melissa McCarthy and Richard E Grant should be award contenders. Loved it.

A Hard Days Night

It came to mind because someone started a thread about how different people reacted to a movie. Went to see it when it was first released with some neighborhood kids. 3 boys about 9 and 10 years old with 3 sisters about 12 to 13 years old. What I remember most was how the 3 girls sat there impassively when they flashed close ups of The Beatles while everybody else in the theater, boys and girls, went into a fit. The screaming was constant, you could only hear a word or two but they were silent. So that's what I remember about the Beatles first movie. Hope I didn't waste too much of your time.

Of Mice And Men : Spoiler Alert

Just watched the 1939 classic again last night. I've seen the remakes. Remember reading it about 40 years ago. So what do you think happened to George after The End? Did they lynch him before the trial? Did he go to prison and maybe serve on a chain gang? Was he pronounced guilty and executed? Did he do life or did the law take mercy on him with a lighter sentence? Did George do the right thing by Lenny? Just asking.

I Have This SICK Feeling

that Americans are already forgetting about the mass murdered gun victims in Parkland Florida. There wasn't much about it this weekend and the kids are kind of quiet. We have to keep being loud and in their face. The toxic NRA must crumble like a year old cup cake and be tossed into the trash heap of history. Don't stop till the only thing left of the NRA is their cold dead hands.

Why Doesn't The IOC Strip The Russian Hockey Goons Of Their Medals?

So should the Russian hockey team be forced to return their medals for breaking the Olympic rule by singing their stupid banned anthem? Wouldn't demanding that they return their medals be a good way to show that Russian rule breaking will not be tolerated by Russian dopers nor their murdering gangster ruler Vladimir Putin? We all know that toxic orange will side with his cheating Russian support team.

CNN Did A Promo For A Kennedy Series Coming In March

I think the next episode was on tonight.

GO WITH JOE!

GO WITH JOE! GO WITH JOE!

Wow for a minute I thought Preston Sharp was Barron Trump

After they cleaned him up and removed the 666 from his head. I guess Barron would dissolve in the light.

Maybe Someone Will Invite Hillary To The SOTU.

She doesn't have to do anything she can just sit there and read Fire and Fury like she did at the Grammy Awards tonight. Maybe all the Dems should be reading Fire and Fury just to remind everyone that America is not normal while that thing is in our White House.
