I watched it. For those that haven’t watched it it doesn’t focus on the massacre itself but the lead in years (it stops as he’s about to begin the shoootings). It’s very well done, understated.
I don’t know why people get all righteous about this topic, have you never watched a movie about Hitler, never watched a doco on 9/11, read a book about an atrocity?

wow that's a blast from the past... had some funny scenes
watched Ford v Ferrari the other day. Few years old now. Fantastic show. Ken Miles, what a man. Great on 2 levels, the amazing achievement of executing the plan from scratch and winning Le Mans for Ford. And also corporate power and the evil petty yes men. Ford said to Carroll Shelby we will write you a blank cheque and give you total control of the program, but they couldn't actually do that, and of course no big corporation can ever relinquish control. Ken Miles, Carroll Shelby, Lee Ioccoca, and Ken Beebe, Henry Ford II all great characters in the film, and the first 3 at least giants in real life, and the last 2 compelling in their patheticness. A sporting and political pressure cooker, loved it.
Well I for one loved 'Dune'. One of the best sci fi film's I've seen in years. A sumptuous epic.
Perfectly cast, Nicole Kidman ...... don't reckon she'd take much *smile* from the Hollywood heavyweights either. Given the the right role, she is a great actor.
Reading up on Lucille Ball has you realising what a force she must've been in a male dominated era and industry!
Sorkin as a writer is brilliant but he should never helm. The film was a mess but Nic was Oscar-worthy.
Just listened to a great podcast about the life of Lucille Ball. I saw reruns of I Love Lucy as a kid and always thought it was corny tripe (which it kind of was) but she and Desi were amazing innovators - they shot it on film, started the whole rerun and franchising thing, and the Desilu studio also made The Untouchables, Star Trek, and Mission Impossible.
Amazing life and career.
The Plot Thickens - Season 4: Here Comes Pam
This is the story of Pam Grier as only she can tell it. It’s a story of bravery, both onscreen and off. It’s a story about race in Hollywood and race in America. And it’s a story about how real life is a lot messier than the movies. Pam Grier joins host Ben Mankiewicz for the upcoming new season...

Just caught the last 30 minutes of the Lucy doc on SBS last night and noticed Debra Messing of Will & Grace played her part in one episode. They should've used her instead of Nicole Kidman as Lucy. Perfect look that even Lucy Arnaz congratulated her at the time.Just listened to a great podcast about the life of Lucille Ball.

First time in this thread.... if you want to see an intense and well directed movie on Netflix... "Calibre". Holy crap, hard watch, tension! If you want to see one of the most bizarre flicks ever, 'The Lobster" with Colin Farrel. WTF? Same dude directed "Killing of a Sacred Deer" with Nicole Kidman and Farrell. Equally f***** weird!!

Yorgos Lanthimos who also directed The Favorite. Great director.
