This Beautiful Fantastic (2016)
Relax and enjoy! Great Sunday evening entertainment
The perfect film to sit down and relax while watching - that's why I have given it a 10. Really I'd say its an 8 but some of the reviewers seem to have marked it down because they thought the rating was too high so I am redressing the balance.
That kind of film doesn't need a devious plot. This one doesn't have one and why should it? Why do some people expect every film to have one - what's wrong with predictable - though I would say this has predictable options!
Enjoy the gentle unfolding of a pleasant story, played very well by a good cast. IMHO directed well in a stylised way. Don't expect too much and it could well deliver in spades like it did for us.
Moonstrike (1963)
One of the "must sees" of the week
One of the most memorable drama series of my childhood (not even a teenager then!)
Like the two other reviewers I was very young at the time but it was one of the programs the family always made a point of watching. (VCRs weren't needed then as we did much less than we do now.)
Don't remember any of the details but remember how I felt about it - totally gripped, always on the edge of the seat at some stage of each believable episode.
Probably long since wiped, if it was even recorded, but would like to see it again - for a variety of different reasons: nostalgia, to see if it's as good as I remember, check out the "primitiveness" (or otherwise) of sets, production etc etc
