JCP Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 The movie "Thunderheart" is one of my favorites. I have always felt a close connection with Native Americans and their culture and this movie made me feel even more linked with them. Val Kilmer was really good in this movie but Graham Greene shined. Someone called "Nightbird" commented on YT under this video: For those of us with Native blood..this was more than a movie. It touched our heart. It was a reality check. A wake-up call. And a reminder of how strong our people are..and how much we have suffered and endured. It doesn't matter if you're a full blood native or a 10 percenter. This movie is a lesson to us all that in the end..after all the tears..and anger..and bullshit..we are brothers & sisters. And we must stand together..or fall divided. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pi3141 Posted May 16 Share Posted May 16 Oh I've got to many favourites, but I like films that portray real life experiences, they are best for me. This one is about the pointlessness of violence.

Cleo Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 Steve Martin's 'Parenthood'. A brilliant film, with a serious theme, masquerading as a comedy. Brilliant actng from a stellar cast, in particular a young Keanu Reeves. I love it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BFWLTS1 Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 (edited) https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=oK-2_OsBe0s If I could only ever watch a single film, it would hands down be this. It’s very open to interpretation, but there are some very strong Gnosticism themes going on in it; the Demiurge pulling the strings of the material world and man’s descent into matter, etc. Edited May 17 by BFWLTS1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pi3141 Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 How about some Westerns - Gregory Peck in a great film, again with a powerful message about the pointlessness of violence. One of the best westerns imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pi3141 Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 Billy Two Hats, an intriguing film, a different kind of Western with some hard hitting and magical moments. A great film. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pi3141 Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 Peckinpah's classic. Bob Dylan, Chris Christopherson and James Coburn, a tale of violence and where it leads, with a great soundtrack and beautiful cinematography and fantastic, realistic period western acting. I really reccomend this one - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orange Alert Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 On 5/14/2022 at 12:21 PM, Bombadil said: Clockwork Orange is pretty cool. Though I have loads of favourites. Depends on the mood My sentiment entirely. A masterpiece, very stylish and unique. I saw it on the big screen for the first time when it was re-released, after Kubrick's death, (after being withdrawn in the UK for nearly 20 years) at the Odeon, Marble Arch in March 2000. I thought back then the Minister of the Interior, played by Anthony Sharp, could very well have been the then Home Secretary, Jack Straw of the New Labour government, with those words and policy to free up prison space for political offenders and treating the common criminal with the Ludovico Technique (aversion therapy). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JCP Posted Thursday at 04:32 AM Share Posted Thursday at 04:32 AM I thought the Robin Hood movie with Russell Crowe was pretty good. The quote in the movie seems befitting for today: Rise and Rise Again ~ Until Lambs Become Lions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
