    Green Book is a good watch, about the race divides in the South of USA.
    Didn't recognise any named actors but really enjoyed it.

    Brilliant Western that. The story is great, the directing is superb, the whole cast is perfectly chosen from the little old Grandma to the Old Indian played by Chief Dan George, all the bad guys and even the little dog Clint spits his baccy on. Classic film making at its best.

    Cidade de Deus, I'd not really bothered much with foreign language movies before this and it was absolutely superb. An absolute masterpiece and I've watched quite a few foreign language movies since as a result

    One of the best movies that i've watched (by best i mean got to me emotionally) was the Blindside. Call me soft but it choked me up a number of times.

    Loved that movie. Great movie and I thought it was one of Viggo Mortensen (The King in Lord of the Rings ) better performances
