Um yeah maybe. A bit busy these days. Gainfully employed in the Land of the Free (sigh) for the short term. Until I have enough in pocket to flee again.

watched a great 1992 film two days ago (totally by chance), called "Toutes peines confondues" by Michel Deville.

It can be watched here for free in 1080p and with English subs:

Yes, I understood that. My computer skills aren't sophisticated enough to mess with VPNs...

Neither are mine. ^^
But fortunately, for every stream one can't access there are dozens of alternatives.

[frisson]

haven't watched too many from this year yet, still too busy to watch films atm but might try and squeak in some watches during the month. might even do one tonight. I'll also put together a list of films which I'll pick from when wanting to watch something (I've never come close to finishing one of those lists, but it's nice to dream). maybe someone will find something from there interesting.
