Phil Likes Dogs ♿
@phillikesdogs
I like dogs, westerns, and film noir. Autistic. Chronic pain has ruined my life but gives me more time to watch movies, so shrug. Autistic daughter and incredibly proud of her.
THE FURIOUS - Yep, you guys were right. This one is the shit. Maybe not as immaculately polished as THE RAID 2, but the story gives you a lot more to care about emotionally. And some terrific borderline unkillable bad guys.
#LetterboxdFriday #LastFourWatched Don't sleep on THE BATTLESHIP ISLAND, it's one of Ryoo Seung-wan's best films.
#lastfourwatched #letterboxdfriday WESTWARD THE WOMEN is an excellent, underseen western.
#LetterboxdFriday #LastFourWatched BEYOND THE INFINITE TWO MINUTES is astonishing filmmaking. Catch it on Prime.
#LetterboxdFriday #LastFourWatched Holy shit, ATONEMENT has one of the best long unbroken shots I've ever seen.
If you're looking for Sam Neill that you haven't seen before, check out the 1982 TV movie IVANHOE. Neill is menacing at first, then emotionally complex as the story unfolds. On Tubi.
#LetterboxdFriday #LastFourWatched Letterboxd, don't sell to fucking Netflix. Thank you.
IT'S ALIVE (1974) - I had a great time with this Larry Cohen gem about a mutated killer infant. The real treat was everyone's extremely '70s reactions to the horrors. Great social commentary and characters.
#LetterboxdFriday #LastFourWatched All bangers. First time watch for Night Has a Thousand Eyes, which pairs well with Nightmare Alley.
My kid drew a Father's Day card including my current walking cane and boot due to a busted ankle. I love her dearly.
#LetterboxdFriday #LastFourWatched Can't complain, it's been a good line-up.
Oh shit, I fucked up this time. Ankle surgery Thursday! Wooo!!!
My kid designed #ShauntheSheep fries and a Lula burger! Her obsession continues.
#letterboxdfriday #lastfourwatched I feel like Verhoeven's incredible World War II film BLACK BOOK is a bit slept on. Don't overlook this one.
#LetterboxdFriday #LastFourWatched The supernatural Shaw Brothers films just aren't my cup of tea, but everything else this week was fun.
D.O.A. (1949) - Pretty fun hook involving a guy who has to solve his own murder. I also enjoy films like this as a snapshot of what life was like in San Francisco back in the day.
#LetterboxdFriday #LastFourWatched Great stuff this week. Also in the middle of rewatching RED BEARD, which rules.
Share an 80s tv show you love My choice: Wizards and Warriors
#LetterboxdFriday #LastFourWatched Man, TO HAVE AND HAVE NOT is nearly as good as CASABLANCA. And I can't get over how well THE LONG WALK turned out. Waited ages for that one.
Spotted in the next door driveway. My neighbor sleeps with the fishes.
Caught a mouse in our kitchen! Drove him to a nice field near a pond, set him free, and gave him some marshmellows. Came home and heard the SNAP of another trap catching mouse #2. Rinse and repeat.
THE RASCAL'S GANG (1977) - Come for the Eurocrime, stay for Tomas Milian's gimmick restaurant where he curses out the customers. Nothing special story-wise, but still entertaining. Some good action.
