I've no idea.. Dad used to get us boys together if there was a Sabu film on and talk a  little of his childhood in India while sharing a bag of salted peanuts..

this was also a film but it was an amazing TV serial
David Janssen played'Dr Richard Kimble' who was falsely accused/ convicted of killing his wife.The real killer was the'One Armed Man'...lol... 'The Fugitive'

Thought the film was brilliant.. Really like Tommy Lee Jones and Harrison Ford was still young enough for the action involved..

Did anybody watch 'Singapore Grip'? I'd be interested in your views.. For myself I thought it was a good watch.. The obvious flaws didn't change that..

In my opinion yes..But it was just a story about a particular time. I'm a sucker for a costume drama..

"The quiet place."
Imaginative Sci fi at its best.
Refreshing change in that that  hero gets killed saving his children.
Also much in sign language as the aliens (well designed)
attack anything that makes a sound, hence the title.
It was on Freeview last night.


Can't wait to see, "The quiet place 2."
If the Buck stops here how can the Doe go all the way ?

Presently re-watching 'Sleepers' (1996).. Kids growing up in Hell's Kitchen NY in the mid-sixties.. I'd forgotten how good a film it is.. Well worth a watch..
