Did you both enjoy it?  Cheers, D.

American Gangster. Netflix, 2 hours 30 mins. Can't believe I've never seen it before! Based on a true story of how a black dude (Denzil Washington) imports drugs from Asia during the Vietnam

Happy Gilmore 2 quite funny but I think only if you have seen the first one 

I slept through it, but to be honest I think I can't abide American humour any longer , maybe the very odd standup , but mostly they're all lame . I rarely find anything to watch outside of documentaries, or factual based historical or practical YouTube bits and pieces, part of becoming a grumpy tyrannical person I guess....

Not sure if I put this up a couple of years back when I first watched it but...

Land - Starring and directed by Robin Wright.

A grieving woman decides to escape to the Wyoming wilderness.

I found it a cracking film, with a gritty performance by Wright. For those wanting to 'escape' to wilderness, and for those that think 'feck that', it's worth a watch. 😉

I'm not surprised you haven't seen it they originally only broadcast it a couple of times after they made it. Iirc it was filmed and broadcast in 1984 and then again in 1985 for the 40th anniversary of the first nuclear bomb drop along with war games,a similar 1960's programme that was deemed too distressing to be shown at the time. I think it wasn't shown again until the early 2000's. It and War Games were on bbc2 the other day and are probably on i player and wirth a look
