    Although there is freedom of speech in the USA, I cannot understand how carrying a Nazi flag and making Nazi salutes is deemed "ok". Surely this is hate speech and demonstrating? As for the car driving into the counter-protesters, this IS terrorism, but I bet Orange Don says nothing about it. He's too busy trying to start WW3 to deflect attention from his dodgy dealings with Russia.
    I despair ................

    He just did a speech. He blamed both sides and refused to speak about nazi's. Then went on to talk about himself.

    Just checked. Manolo Has only scored 1 goal since we changed the title of this thread to have his name. Mods, any chance of helping us out a bit and changing it to someone who we know won't score :)

    Tbh, when Chilco did his Manolo grammar gymnastic trick with Beefy's Corner my first thought was Saganowski.!
    Make of that what you will. Just don't tell me about it.

    That last post was just before I watched Deliverance [1972] for probably the umpteenth time. But I went into this believing that it would be quite dated by now. However, in the current political climate it somehow seemed relevant, so I gave it a go. On Rotten Tomatoes this film gets 93%, and it is extremely well regarded everywhere. And in all honesty you can easily see why. Take away the material items that date the scene [remarkably few, this is the backwoods] and you're left with a modern tale of four city blokes who are trying to rediscover their lost youth and adventure by canoeing down a river valley soon to be lost by the building of a huge dam. On the way they encounter the Appalachian locals, some inbred for generations, totally unexposed to modern education and morality, other than what has previously permeated into their remote environment. From that, the consequences go either way. It's a very powerful message and is still a bit difficult to watch at times. If somebody got around to making an updated version then quite frankly one would merely update the vehicles and the canoe equipment, but leave everything else the same. I don't believe that any of the actors have been better since [Burt Reynolds, Jon Voight, Ned Beatty and Ronny Cox] and I think this is director John Boorman's masterpiece. It never let's go of you until the credits roll. For the few who have never seen it - highly recommended.

    I have often referred to people I have come across as being similar to those Appalachian locals, with a little humming of Duelling Banjos.
    Very enjoyable film, full of tense moments.
