#MovieThread VII: The Kino Awakens, Chapter Three — March Edition
From 2020 to 2025 I watched 2370 movies.
In 2026 so far I've watched another 70, for a total of 2440 movies.
This month:
* John McTiernan.
* Ninja Turtles, probably.
Previous thread:
Starting John McTiernan, it's the movie "Nomadland" is not a sequel to, it's —
#71, or #2441, 1986's "Nomads."
It's the movie today best remembered for the "Seinfeld" episode of the same title where Elaine is the only person in town who hates it, leaving now for a screening of —
#72, or #2442, 1996's "The English Patient."
With this one I'm 8/10 for seeing this year's Best Picture nominees in the cinema, leaving now to go see —
#73, or #2443, 2026's "Sentimental Value."
Beautiful, very moving. Not got that much to say about it. Liked it, it's very good.
I've seen some interpretations of the ending that vary pretty wildly, but I'm choosing the happy interpretation — that despite everything, he gets to do it his way. (What happens to that house is a /murder/, though.)
(Wildest moment is when he holds a full roll of kitchen paper under the tap to then go clean with. A whole roll?? You made the whole roll single use???)
