The Silver Screen Oasis

How is this for pulling up an old thread? The Foreigner. This is really a Jackie Chan movie that is only partly a Jackie Chan movie.

If it only took hair to make another cat I would have a herd.

I have been stuck on westerns lately. STARZEncore has plenty of them if you don't mind the status of "entertaining." Today it was "Six Black Horses." It starred Audie Murphy, Dan Duryea and Joan O'Brien. Notably, it was written by Burt Kennedy. Knowing that from the credits it wa...

Last week we showed this to some a young couple who had never seen it. (Quite remarkable considering how much the mother loves movies.) THey loved it after having some doubts initially. One thing that struck me this time around was the final scene. When Scout says "Hey, Boo" Atticus then c...

Here it is well over two years since the last post and still so much going on in the world of The Beatles. We have two new McCartney albums, remix releases of SGT PEPPER and the "White Album", McCartney continues his remastering of his older albums, McCartney and Starr still touring, YELLO...

IN case anyone doesn't know DOC MARTIN finally starts another season on PBS on Jan 2019. (At least int the Baltimore/Washington area.) Enjoy.
