3. 'Noah' :: You can skip that one (Story, picture, and sound). ...Blu
4. 'The Keep' :: Atmospheric, dark, Gothic, sci-fi, ... (music). ...DVD (a favorite of mine since 1983)
And (in 2D) ::
An externally hosted image should be here but it was not working when we last tested it.

Agree with you about The Keep, Bob - one of those movies where the atmospherics are everything, made a big impact on me.
Frank, if we feel similar towards some movies we saw some thirty years ago or so, it must mean that we are somewhat related spiritually by bloodline.
But even if we didn't, it still stands. The red color blood of all humans and animals does not think, it runs.
Yeah, Michael Mann makes "atmospheric" films; with that touch of super realism, envoutement. And the music soundtrack (movie score) always helps.
'The Keep' - A dark horror trance without even seeing monsters. ...We just imagine them, as sometimes we hear of some of them, on the news, the local, and the world news... ...We keep that in mind when we are entertained/distracted by watching 'atmospheric' flicks onscreen.
Films are a popular entertainment; they help most of us (sensitive human beings) to look away from reality... Without them, the world would be an even sadder place, for a lot of people. ...For me for sure. ...And same with music; without it it can get quite depressive at times.
We are lucky; us living on the American, Australian, European continents.
Some people living in some other continents or the same, are not so lucky. ...Of all the tyranny.

Yes, we now have monsters among us, disguised as normal people - this craziness belongs to a time hundreds of years ago; the concern is that it may be able to spread outward, worm its way into gentler places, like the plague did back then.
My stepson liked the soundtrack of this movie very much, he introduced me to lots of the interesting music of the period ...

Yeah, Ebola, and the head hunters...

* I'm a huge Tangerine Dream's fan. ...Frank, your stepson has great music taste; tell him please, from Bob, the Canadian Frenchman (frog).

Finished "Harlock". Ugh. Now I regret it. Cool visuals. One neat plot twist; unfortunately I found it impossible to connect to the people; the animation is deep in the uncanny valley. Shows you how good Pixar's stuff is when it comes to the detailed emotions.
Also a huge Tangerine Dream fan. Because I couldn't find a copy of "Diamond Diary" from the Thief soundtrack, I recorded and edited the track from my copy of the movie. Still the soundtrack to which most of my code gets written.

Last night I revisited this flick ::
Easy going, ultra smooth, not an action genre, for peaceful people, with an eye for cinematic poetry, and an appreciation of life's celebration.
...Simple, just like a growing tree.
- Not for your average type of viewers, but for your out-of-average ones; with that special sauce in their brain, that higher level of natural simplicity.
And the music score is an excellent match. ...Puts you in a relaxed zone of comfortable numbness. ...Dare if you will. ...Will if you dare?

Just watched this "Let the Right One In" (2008). A beautiful romantic horror movie. Wonderful pacing, acting, and directing; definitely one of the best horror movies I've seen and a solid 5 stars in my book. Now I gotta find the book.
As a professional in this area with 40+ years of experience, I would say that CNBC has some of the dumbest knuckle-draggers, some of the most outrageous hucksters and charlatans in the investment arena.
Want some good advice on the telly, watch Consuelo Mack's interviews of professional money managers on Friday nights on WLIW.
Are you referring to (The Keep)..it was interesting. It made an impact when I first watched it a few years ago..

♦ 'Fargo' 2D: A revisit to a cool flick. ...Some scenes are plain outrageous.
♦ 'Need for Speed' 3D: Also a revisit but this time in 3D for the first time. I prefer it over 2D.
/// Flick is not great, only the picture & sound are. ...I'm thru.

Good documentary and introduction to digital cinematography via an awesome group of interviewees.

White House Down
yes, that boy can definitely Channing all over your Tatum

* Directed by Oliver Stone (1997). ...Love that flick to death; great performances by great actors/actresses. ...On DVD.
{I must have seen it over a dozen times...still waiting for the Blu.}
"The Man in the White Suit" -- Alec Guinness - this is a truly wonderful movie and a delight to watch!
