Makes sense. In French, in this context, if you say something 'est une folie' it doesn't translate literally as 'it's madness' but 'it's stupid / nonsensical'Charlton and on said:
Excitedly, when Folie a Deux came out, I wrangled a rare evening free to watch it back to back with the first film. Think it's the most disappointing film I've ever seen. A real "wtf".Bedsaddick said:

The now underused English word 'folly' has this interpretation: 'Folie à deux' is a folly.1 -

Just watched Oppenheimer which was recommended on here the other day (on BBC iPlayer)
A slow burner for me but I got really engrossed with the story and film. Well worth watching. Acting, dialogue, sound and visual were all very good. Can see why it was so highly acclaimed.4 -
Paddington always cheers me up. Great fun. Is Bad Santa on anywhere? Another feel good Xmas film I love.0

I know he is a supporting actor in three billboards but Sam Rockwell is one of my favourite actors of recent years. Great in fosse/verdon alongside Michelle Williams. Who is also another fav.
But yeah, also recommend three billboards.4 -
what happened with Love Actually @Bedsaddick, we all know it’s one of your all time favourite films 😂2

Train Dreams what a fantastic film great shout Beds1

I remember the days when terrestrial television showed TV premiers at Christmas. Back to the Future, for example, was shown on Christmas Day which was the first opportunity to see it other than at the cinema. Nowadays you need to pay extra to see anything decent.2 -

Echo 3 Billboards. And Inception is a pretty good film too.Karim_myBagheri said:I know he is a supporting actor in three billboards but Sam Rockwell is one of my favourite actors of recent years. Great in fosse/verdon alongside Michelle Williams. Who is also another fav.

Watched Exotic Marigold Hotel earlier. Very disappointed that they have sanitised it. Only watched the first 20 mins as they cut out a scene with Maggie Smith as she comes home from her hospital appt & has a conversation with the transport driver.
"My wife's Indian "
"Well, you married her".
(I'm well aware the bit before she talks about black hearts & stealing.....but hardly the most racist thing ever said in a film. And that's her character in the film.)1 -
Some great ones today but love Inception2

Banshees of Inisherin is fantastic with many fine performances.

Brendan Gleeson probably my favourite actor along with Sam Rockwell.4 -
Lots of good ones today0

First day of Christmas I have no plans so will be watching one of these or a previous Netflix recommendation. Thanks @Bedsaddick...
Being a bit cheeky, is there a top 10 netflix/prime list you would also recommend for a watch list...?1
