Henry, A Room With A View is another good one. Book written by E.M. Forster. Helena Bonham Carter did win the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress for this one. Maggie Smith is her companion and her love interests are played by Julian Sands and Daniel Day-Lewis. Great performances. I will have to watch Wings of the Dove, but I want to read the book first (of course)!

Took your movie advice and watched "The Fall." That is a stunning movie and one of the best I've seen.

The richly layered screenplay, the exotic filming locales, the wonderful colors on the screen makes one feel like you're tripping on Mescaline without having ingested the drug.

It's easy to see why it bombed in the USA: No nudity, no sex scenes, no gory scenes of someone's head getting cleaved or their body riddled with bullets must have been a disappointment to most Americans, who seem to prefer movies that stimulate the head between their knees and not their ears.

And the little girl who played Alexandria was superb. It's amazing how kids seem to be the best actors, eclipsing most of that Hollywood crowd, but then again, they're movie stars, not actors.

Definitely recommend this to anyone who enjoys cinematic masterpieces.

The Man from Snowy River (1982 film) - Wikipedia

Not only is this movie beautifully filmed, showing some of Australia's wonderful mountains. It shows how a man must stand-up to his responsibilities.
And how society must work together for the betterment of ...all? Most

You didn't include my favorite, The Devil's Advocate, which shows very well how easily human being is manipulated due to their pride and vanity and how spiritual work works at every level. It tells an ultimate reality of the 20th century, that it belonged to satan [as does this century until the second coming]...remember Leo XIII mystical experience, where he heard a conversation between Satan and God, with satan requesting God more power and time to finalize his plan...God having said yes...Which resulted in Leo XIII creating the St Michael prayer to be used at the end of every Eucharist around the world. The ECC freemasons knowing the power of this prayer got rid of it during Vat II!!

Tells us that lawyers are the new priesthood - indeed, together with psychologists, the later dictate what is good or bad and the later make them into law.
This film is really brilliant ...

Thanks Luis

My take - its a manipulated “Fake" Twitter Account that exposes The Truth. Then either Giuliani can deny it or they can CGI make him deny it

Similar to when some upcoming female actress “accidentally” gets her sex-tape leaked. She is all upset but her publicist and her planned the leaked tape

Re: CGI - A very close friend of mine patented some Computer Animation Real Face Expression CGI stuff that he was forced to sell to the CIA and work/train their programers how to operate it

There's one movie that might deserve mention as a success, if we define success as developing a worldwide anti-drugs following. It was so successful, and it exploded into an underground worldwide following so fast, on a shoestring budget, and it was so anti-drugs, that the CIA and Hollywood were forced to respond. The movie was "The Harder They Come, the Harder They Fall," with Jimmy Cliff.

This little movie, still mostly unknown and still hated by Hollywood, was a shot in the late 1960s in Jamaica, by a handful of local amateurs who wanted to tell a story. In spite of its extremely poor audio and video quality, the film, once seen, is however never forgotten. Its methods of simplicity and honesty cannot be hidden. All of the actors and singers in the film were local Jamaican amateurs. They were "unknowns" who wanted to tell a story of how CIA drugs and Illuminati corruption was hurting beautiful Jamaica. It was locally produced, reportedly on a budget of only $60,000, using extremely primitive cameras and studio equipment. In a few years time, the film had a worldwide underground (or backstreet theater) following. In spite of its extremely poor, but extremely honest, video and audio quality, it has a loyal following still to this day. The native Jamaican brogue is so thick, the first English editions had subtitles.

The movie was a response/resistance to the CIA, Hollywood and the Pentagon, and their corruption of local police and politicians, through control of the worldwide drugs and porn industries.

Using the unknown singer Jimmy Cliff, the film introduced a native Jamaican musical genre, now known as Reggae. The power of Reggae was immediately recognized, for its combinations of simplicity and innocence. While the film is about drugs, it is also very anti-drugs in its overall theme. It will shock most people to learn that Reggae started as an anti-drugs genre. Hollywood and the CIA immediately saw its overnight popularity as a threat. A new and unknown musical genre had somehow been introduced which expressed the victory of the soul over Hollywood and CIA drugs and corruption. They wanted reggae turned into a pro-drugs musical genre, and they wanted Jimmy Cliff-who? off the charts. So, the CIA and Hollywood gave Bob Marley the big push. Marley took the bait. He didn't care that he was being used to push a theory that Jamaicans are as bunch of a perpetually stoned-out Rastafarian. However, the originator of authentic native Jamaican reggae, Jimmy Cliff, who developed the genre on musical innocence, dignity, simplicity and honesty, started reggae on the theme that Hollywood, the CIA and drugs were the essence of the problem. Under Bob Marley, getting stoned became cool again.

As part of the psyops war against Jimmy Cliff and his anti-drugs stance, the CIA staged the Virginia Tech mass shooting. One of the pictures of the alleged shooter was modeled after scenes taken from this movie.

An indie film from a few years back, brilliantly scripted and memorably shot, is "Next Stop Wonderland". Realistically explores heterosexual relationships and beautifully illustrates how missed encounters and split-second happenstance can change one's life forever.

Guy said (November 1, 2012):

I absolutely recommend the 2009 transatlantic Mockumentary 'Morris: A Life with Bells on.' An affectionate parody, yet a warm and affecting tribute to, the oldest and truest tradition left in England [Morris Dancing.]

Beautiful scripts and performances from a cast that are obviously in love with the script themselves. Lead Actor and screenwriter Charles Thomas Oldham should be a household name but isn't.

The nearest point of comparison would be Local Hero, and similarly , the Morris film is entirel lacking in malice towards any of its characters.

This is what life should be like - and if only everybody made a commitment to be just plain decent, it would be!

Alrighty, I've got netflix packed and I'm looking forward to another, An Education which blew my mind.

Millennium's specific episodes of interest are The Fourth Horseman and Skull and Bones (Both expose HAARP sub-rosa, from the same group who had an airliner pointed at the WTC as the plot of a spin-off of the X-Files) are worth a look.

"Movies used to inform, uplift and entertain. Now they are agitprop, designed to control the mind and destroy the spirit".

Doc,

Go watch a copy of "Things to Come" (1936) and there you will see the entire Illuminati plan for humanity played out in all it's "glory". This film was released 76 years ago...

Henry, you may also want to take a look at 'Machine Gun Preacher' as a film that wouldn't quite sit well with a sinister narrative & as a result, received very little fanfare despite starring a big name like Gerard Butler...

Especially when you take the real life story of Sam Childers into account.

When I taught philosophy of art for many years, I made Tom Wolfe's book, The Painted Word, required reading on the financial and other dynamics of abstract art. If you have not read it, you would enjoy it. It apparently makes points similar to the movie Boogie Woogie. Once again, keep up your fantastic work.
