MOT was great.  But I'm a little biased when it comes to cephalopods

Crazy how they only live for like a year but are so smart

Cosigned on both. Nomadland is going to win a lot of awards.

I will say that Sylvie's Love on Prime falls in the category of a good movie.  Pretty typical romantic drama set to the backdrop of late 50s and early 60s Jazz, R&B, Soul music.  Not unlike Soul there it has lots of Jazz featured in the movie… it's a pleasant was to spend one's time.

Thanks for the reco… this was outstanding

FYI..that Miles movie is excellent, awesome footage/photos and miles audio speaking (which is kinda rare I think)

this looks like something Kozmo will loveCreation Stories, the biopic about legendary UK indie label Creation Records (home of My Bloody Valentine, Oasis, Primal Scream, more) made by the Trainspotting team of director Danny Boyle and writer Irvine Welsh, will be out March 20

this looks intriguing

and while I was in the area at the time, i was definitely on the periphery of this scene.. bought some 7" singles at the time which are probably worth a fortune at this point, but didn't seen many of the shows..

as a follow-up i went to high school with John Bannon of Negative Approach, he would have fallen in the Freaks category then and I remember him doing Alice Cooper covers at a battle of the bands…

Sound Of Metal-Riz Ahmed gives a notable performance as a rock drummer who loses his hearing
