The lockdown came in the way and at first I thought it would be another social-realistic alcoholism movie. Heaven knows I have seen enough of those. When I realized it is a lot more than that, the cinema window had closed and I am now waiting for it to be available on streaming.<br />I was super impressed with Promising Young Woman and it was my favorite at the show. <br />I tried to watch Nomadland, but gave up after 10 minutes. Just was not in the mood for another hillbilly movie.

Terrific storytelling, quite brilliant staging, sharply coherent action scenes, and a minimum of CGI. Plus the bonus of that 12 minute sequence.aceblackblog.https://www.blogger.com/profile/08404695143187261837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3166297507174717122.post-76139722200570777902022-01-14T15:29:06.905-06:002022-01-14T15:29:06.905-06:00I still haven't seen these films though I want...I still haven't seen these films though I want to thank you for mentioning the library as I found a Blu-Ray copy of <i>Nomadland</i> and a DVD copy of <i>Another Round</i> there hopefully to be watched soon. Right now, I'm dealing with the flu as I hope to catch up to these films. thevoid99https://www.blogger.com/profile/03055459287396592446noreply@blogger.com
