Certain Women - Kelly Reichardt (2016)
Three stories of three women in rural Montana.
The sparest of narratives is really a framework on which to to hang a sketch of the melancholy, unsettlling emptiness and isolation of the country and the women.
Captain Fantastic - Matt Ross (2016)
Superficially resembles Mosquito Coast. Becomes more complex as the story of the missing wife is partially revealed.
What part did her mental health play in shaping the radical life style of the family ?
Viggo Mortenson is predictably excellent, many very engaging scenes, especially where his home education methods dazzlingly prove their superiority in the face of initial ridicule. Good cast and worth seeing but with a mediocre wrap up.
Working through Narcos S2, easy viewing, and Mr Robot S2, far from easy, one lapse of concentration and I'm lost.
Headphones mandatory to catch the murky dialogue.
Westworld first two episodes.
Brilliant !
