Yep. Love it. Also love Wenders, Antonioni and Fellini.
Once a year I have to visit Maryon Park where Blow Up was filmed. Last year I took my camera - amazing film.
Thanks, I never knew it was filmed in Maryon Park.
Tennis Court is still there and the upper level trees have matured but all recognisable. Well worth a visit.
I finally saw this, Pete. It’s wonderful.
Marvellous ![]()
Watched “Us” at the end of just week. I’m not a horror buff by any means but what a genuinely disturbing and haunting film.
A few more of my favourites:
One Hour Photo
Black Book
Memento
Thank You for Smoking
Twelve Monkeys
A Scanner Darkly
Das Boot
Four Lions
Paths of Glory
The Machinist
This is Spinal Tap
Going to see The Lighthouse on Friday night, looking forward to that one.

Here’s a couple from Norway; Kitchen Stories, (2003) and Troll Hunter (2010).
Both comedies in the Scandinavian deadpan tradition.
Kitchen stories is set in the 1950s, a team of Swedish researchers plans to revolutionise the home kitchen. After observing the modern housewife, they set their sights on typical bachelors. A scientist is sent to a rural Norwegian town, where he tracks the kitchen behavior of an odd single man. Very charming comedy.
Trolls are real but is a government cover up and are secretly herded in the northern part of Norway. Some student reporters investigate…references are made to fairytales and the history of Christianity in Norway…as Trolls can smell Christians. A comedy for adults for sure.
“Be like water my friend” …and for some expert nunchaku choreography and the late Jim Kelly’s big hair day…”I was too busy looking good” and the great one liners and 70’s Hong Kong coooooool. And the film title.
Good shout Mike , I love horror but mostly find modern stuff lame . This is very original and pretty spooky !
I actually thought it was better than Get Out.
Definitely
An American Werewolf in London

So, there not discussing the virtues of WAV over Flac then.
I love the movie. Hedgehog I love the movie. Run Lola Run I love the movie. Das Boot especially love the movies from the forties in the fifties known as film noir and I especially love. All of Alfred Hitchcock’s movies.
I don’t know. I must have been smoking something but I should have mentioned everything by the Coen brothers.
