Evita (1996): A great fanciful but memorable musical drama. I happen to think it is Madonna's best work. She's terrific!; DVD ~~$19.95~~ $14.95
Lantana (2001): Yes, memorable. A great Australian drama well worth re–watching.; DVD ~~$20~~ $15
Whale Rider (2003): A damn silly film with nothing honest to say!; DVD ~~$24.95~~ $18.70
Good Night, and Good Luck (2004): Top movie, very subtle in places, worth re–watching. Strathairn & Clooney are outstanding.; DVD ~~$19.95~~ $14.95
In Bruges (2008): An excellent and very funny film.; DVD ~~$20~~ $15
Lion (2016): Moving, intelligent and very realistic. A great movie!; DVD ~~$25~~ $18.75
Salt Path, The (2024): Extremely disappointing. I walked this path in 1980, camping & not dining in expensive seaside pubs. There is something terribly bogus about this film. Anderson is OK but Isaacs unconvincing in his 'illness'. The original story by Winn is bogus too.; DVD $29.95 | Blu-Ray $39.95
Dressmaker, The (2015): A powerful, unique, funny & very eccentric Australian movie. rnHard to describe. Gripping un a mad sort of way. A romance & tragedy with comic overtones. Outstanding acting by all.
Deliverance (1972): Certainly a classic!; DVD ~~$20~~ $15
Rose, The (1979): Worth watching, fun!; DVD ~~$20~~ $15
