Seen a Good Movie Lately?

Not contemporary, but just watched on TCM - again! - "Chinatown" - with Jack Nicholson. It's about 50 years old, but still a good one.

Reminds me, I recently watched the new Faye Dunaway documentary on HBO/MAX.

Not exactly ground-breaking, but an interesting piece.

My wife had never seen GOOD WILL HUNTING, so we watched that one last week. It's still amazing that Damon and Affleck wrote that at such a young age.

My wife is a Minnie Driver fan, and I've told her we need to watch GROSS POINT BLANK. I find the basis of that movie funny. Its worth a watch if you missed it when it came out in the mid-90s.

Another Damon movie we watched was THE ADJUSTMENT BUREAU. It's not a great movie, but it had an interesting plot about fate.

Since I seem to be a sucker for a great screenplay, this is my vote for #1 all-time. It's a Greek tragedy as a detective story.

I have The Hustler in my top ten, but I'll mention Altman's California Split also captures the psychology of the twilight world really well.
