Watched 'Mudbound' last night on Netflix.

Two families - one black and one white - struggle to make a living in deeply racist Mississippi during and after WW2.

Good script, fine acting.

for any fans of the Sergio Leone / Clint Eastwood westerns, Sad Hill Remembered is a great documentary on Netflix.

I rewatched Fury last night and it perfectly meets the thread title. It flip flops between glamourizing the war and hard realism, leaving an incoherent whole. But Chris Waddle is surprisingly excelllent in the lead role.

Some decent docs on the BT Sport app. Really enjoyed the one about Wimbledon (crazy gang not tennis) as someone who didn’t grow up with it. Fashanu if there were any doubt before comes across as totally unhinged and just a dreadful person.

I normally check out the reviews on IMDB to decide if a film will be worth watching but didn't with Thanks For Sharing. I found it on Amazon, saw the list of actors and thought "it can't be that bad with that lot in it". It turned out to be pretty good and then I saw it was only 6.4 on IMDB which I wouldn't have bothered with had I checked beforehand. So for a half decent film that you could easily overlook, I nominate this one.
