The Titfield Thunderbolt.
Even as one of the lesser regarded Ealing comedies, it's still an absolutely joyous and gentle satire of Britain's establishment and a sadly prescient dig at the decline of the railways.
If you like any of them mate, you'll enjoy this one.Not seen that one, and I do love the Ealing movies. On the list now
I don't know what your home set up is but part of what made it for me was the immersion which is tough to get outside of the cinema. The sound in particular is incredibly impressive. I can definitely imagine it being nowhere near as impressive at home.View attachment 313843
Warfare.
This was a film that I really wanted to see at the cinema, but missed due to it only getting a limited release.
The reviews had been pretty much overwhelmingly good, due to its realism, but I bit disappointed tbh.
Thought it started off really well, but then just became flat.
Maybe it was one you needed to see on the cinema to appreciate the battle scenes ?

Read something online recently regarding Ferris Buellerās day off. The theory was he was living each day in loop to create the perfect day, Groundhog Day fashion you might say.Fun fact pop pickers, her out of Ferris Bueller's (Mia Sara) married Sean Connery's son Jason.
