Film

  • Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore (1974) - An early Scorsese very much of its time. Ellen Burstyn's performance holds up well, but it is difficult to find much else of enduring value in this one today - other than a portrait of the times.
  • Moana 2 (2024) - Entertaining and wholesome enough, but adding nothing new.
  • Minikillers (1969) - a short film without dialogue starring Diana Rigg immediately following her role in The Avengers tv show, and playing on her Mrs. Peel character: pitting her against a criminal gang that uses killer dolls. Rigg shines, and there are a couple of Avengers-like moments, but this is largely a curiosity for fans.

TV

  • Miles From Nowhere - kiwi Moslem comedy not a million miles from We Are Lady Parts.
  • Whiskey on the Rocks - Swedish satire based on an incident with a soviet submarine in the '80s. The first episode was great, but not sure whether it will hold up.
  • Thou Shalt Not Steal - excellent aussie comedy that improves with each episode.
  • Obituary - Irish dramady with a cold-case mystery underneath, Siobhán Cullen puts in a fine performance.
