It looks great, but it's lacking that extra "something" that made the previous Gleeson/Farrell/McDonagh collaboration so compelling.

 

Well, compared to the previous ones, it "lacks" the incredibly black, but incredibly funny, humour. But it doesn't look like it's meant to have it. It's intentionally a far more sober, dreary affair, and as such it works wonderfully, even if it doesn't make we want to watch it again as soon as possible.

 

It's a shame it went up against Oppenheimer at the Oscars. It would have deserved its share of acting awards at least (and Gleeson at the very least really should have one by now).

But it didn't. Banshees is a 2022 movie that competed at the 2023 Oscars, where Everything Everywhere won for Best Picture. And Oppenheimer is a 2023 movie that competed at the 2024 Oscars, where it won 7 awards.

Whoops, that's what I get for watching it so late (and not noticing that I followed the wrong IMDb links)… I loved Everything Everywhere…, but I'm not sure it deserved its acting awards over Banshees.

Nice, didn't know that one. Feels like more than half of the frames of the entire film are on there!

And now they're here! (It's a very very pretty movie.)

I love how much Branagh was able to get out of this rather small and straightforward role:

 

There are times you realize he's probably underrated.

 

EDIT: I just realized that when I think of Dunkirk I think of the airplanes and I think of Branagh. After that the rest of the movie is only just terrific.

Which film is this from, @Marian Schedenig?

 

Fritz Lang's Siegfried.

 

I think it looks like one of Tolkien's illustrations for his own stories.

Was it? I only knew it didn't have the best reputation, but whether from critics or the general audience or both I don't know. I just saw it today and liked it. Worth watching not just for Colman and Deakins.

Thanks for those, @Marian Schedenig.

I don't care if it was demolished by critics and disappeared faster than the last packet of pigs in blankets from my supermarket on Christmas Eve (a true story!), I still want to see EMPIRE OF LIGHT.

Anything - anything - with Toby Jones is worth watching.

Not necessarily my favorite shots, just some of the best ones I found when I did a quick search for stills

Ok. Ignore everything I've posted about the stills. They are all from PRIDE AND PREJUDICE.

My mistake. I'm getting my Austens mixed up :)
