You need to hear the full orchestra with the full brass section!!
It's an amazing experience :emoticon-0159-music:emoticon-0159-music
Heard the same orchestra recently with different artist (no hipster brass section though) and the sound was amazing
Love PSB
Jealous of you and those that have seen the two together
 
There's some great European series on BBC 4 ON a Saturday night .
Compulsive viewing from October til April for me

Same here. Love my fix of subtitled European crime drama on a Saturday night on BBC4. Has the added bonus of the wife not liking them and getting out of my way to sit upstairs.

There was a discussion about film noir recently. Didn’t notice one of the best, Double Indemnity mentioned. It is on this Friday
 
For anyone interested in Latin American history, and how Venezuela, Colombia, Ecuador, Chile, and Peru won their independence from Spain in the first half of the 19th century, I strongly recommend the Netflix series "Bolivar" (a Mexican production I believe). Beautifully filmed and acted by an amazing cast, the only downside is that it involves SIXTY one-hour episodes, which may tax the patience of most viewers.!!

For those willing to give it a go, I suggest passing up the first 25 episodes which cover Simon Bolivar's childhood and misspent youth in Europe, and starting watching around episode 26 when the "Liberator" begins to lead the enthralling struggle for LAM independence. The last 20 episodes in particular are great watching, culminating in the collapse of Bolivars political dreams amid his growing ill-health and ultimate death.

Same here she can't do subtitles :emoticon-0148-yes:

MIND you none of the women at work can do subtitles neither !
Dark nights with a few beers and an empty living room is good stuff

Enjoying below the surface. My son and his partner not only won’t watch with subtitles, they won’t watch black and white movies. So they miss out on some of the all time greats. Especially the Third Man. They also will never enjoy Les Parapluies De Cherbourg.
