El Hoyo / The platform

She's only happy because she just spent the night with El OchoCinco

Is she up up to his standards? She is fairly typical by Colombian looks, better pics but her face is obscured here. Mind you those thighs could crack a coconut, or cook a hardboiled egg I'm sure.

I want to go to level 1. Only 7 hour drive and probably 2 thousand bucks in fines away.

The Man from Earth is another must see for a lockin and good intellectual sci-fi.

Keeps the very short lockin time in perspective and all filmed in a cabin.

Any real Star Trek fans will know it.

"The screenplay was conceived by Jerome Bixby in 1946 and completed on his deathbed in April 1998. The screenplay mirrors similar concepts of longevity Bixby introduced in Requiem for Methuselah, a Star Trek episode he wrote that aired in 1969."

Another good one to get cabin fever in perspective and showing the conflict between Trump types (Dafoe) and normal people (Pattinson).


Valeriia Karaman not bad either.
 
The Rover, a very decent flick to satiate cravings to kill the courier who has failed to deliver your spare car key four times now even though you had a lawyer call his supervisor who put the package in his hands personally he promised today.

If that's happens to you, good film to unwind the urge to hurt somebody during confinement.

 
Saw this on Netflix last night, Spanish language and very interesting plot. Quite easy to spoiler so don't want to say much but its an interesting view on solidarity.

Not nearly as well produced but also curious was Boketh though I am a fan of the genre. Its not the brilliant The Quiet Earth https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&sou...FjAZegQICRAB&usg=AOvVaw1eA2E3sR7a21mwCpy6AaD6 but sill watchable I thought. At least you get to see a lot of Iceland.


"Bokeh is a 2017 science fiction drama film written and directed by Geoffrey Orthwein and Andrew Sullivan. It stars Maika Monroe and Matt O'Leary as two American tourists in Iceland who find everyone else on the island has mysteriously vanished."


Anyone seen anything they thought well suited to these strange days of political insanity and lockdown?
Just watched Bokeh. Iceland a perfect place to film such a movie. Vastness of beauty and bleakness fit the theme nicely. Cinematography was spectacular and the score was pitch perfect. One thing that struck me is how the mundane monotony of "normal" is the first thing we want back when it's suddenly gone. My wife traveled to Iceland last fall so she loved the visual reminders. Thanks for the suggestion, we enjoyed it, though it was a dark ending.

Very glad you liked it, the crazy thing is I was to be in Greenland learning from a master bladesmith right now but he was on holidays on the Faroe islands (also amazing) on the other side of Iceland and all this happened of course.

The movie The Secret Life of Walter Mitty is also a must see for Greenland and Iceland, a movie I don't tire of. Beautifuly shot movie as well.

There is a recent episode of Black Mirror (on Netflix) filmed in Iceland called "Crocodile" (season 4) though beautiful, it is a bit gruesome. Its hard to identify at first as the characters are English speakers.

Another movie that is interesting from a "where is that?" kind of feeling is called Womb with Matt Smith and the beautiful Eva Green. A little slow (called Clone in the US because it has to be too obvious). Perhaps its as I know a lot of the world and knowing the house setting was Europe but no idea where (coast of Germany).

Today I'm in the mood for some Godzilla. 62 days in lockdown today. Brain is a bit sprained so some good old monster rubbish. :)
