I Just Bought … (Non-SW Shopping Diary)

Welcome back, Toscano :slight_smile:

Thank you, Dean!!!

That means a lot!!!

New blu-rays:

‘WRINKLES’

I’ve posted an image of this Bluray…don’t know if it will show, or not…

Anyway: Every once in a while, an animated film comes along, that ‘REALLY’ makes you think about life, love, wants, and needs…

At Christmas, I watched the excellent ‘Ethel & Ernest’, by Raymond Briggs…a very poignant, very beautiful depiction (in animation), of growing ‘old’ gracefully. It was a hard watch…

‘Wrinkles’ is cut from the same cloth…a hard watch…but, a rewarding one.

The film revolves around several memorable souls, living out their last days in a ‘Home’. Each of them are afraid of dementia, and the approaches of it, through their actions, behaviour etc.

As I said…not an easy watch…but one that we will all have to face, one day.

What is amazing, is that the emotion, tears, shame, abandonment, sense of loss…are all conveyed via animation…

It didn’t work Toscano (Amazon images can be a bit of a bugger), but I’ve fixed it anyway. :slight_smile:

Cheers for that, ‘Big Fella’.

It is a good film. As I said, not easy to watch, but - with voice talent such as Martin Sheen, and Matthew Modine…

I’ve just pre-ordered the following Blurays, from 'Amazon. Germany:

It has been years since I saw ‘The Survivor’, so I’m looking forward to it…one of the few James Herbert novels that was adapted into a film; unlike Stephen King, who seems to have every thing he writes turned into film.

Cool cover for Syndicate Sadists. I always like to tease people with this particular film quiz “Which film has the first appearance of John Rambo?” :smiley:

Same here…I’m looking forward to ‘Amuck!’…

Syndicate Sadists of course :grinning:
