Patrick Melrose and The Haunting on House Hill were the two best TV shows I watched this year.

The dialogue in Patrick Melrose was what I enjoyed the most. So many great quotes and monologues.

Haven't got any TV shows on the go at the moment.

Penny Marshall. And another part of my childhood dies. RIP, Penny.

Finally got around to wathcing The Hustler (robert rossen, 1961) and Requiem for a Heavyweight (ralph nelson, 1962) . Watched them back to back. That was a good double feature.

Just imagining a movie poster with "It was at least intersting enough for me to watch in its entirety"

Any examples of what we definetly wouldn't be going with? I'm just trying to fine tune my selection process.

Blue is the Warmest Colour is five years old already? Yikes.

I'm going on leave for six weeks at the end of this week, so I'll be seeing quite a few at home and in the cinema.

It's that time of year when people start releasing their best films of the year lists. Indiewire has also put out an article about the most under appreciated films of 2018

You Were Never Really Here. (Ramsay 2017)

Joaquin Phoenix is a treasure and they nailed the ending.

Spoilers

That final scene where they both didn''t know where they wanted to go was so apt. Because seriously where could you go from there?
