Quigley Down Under because Tom Selleck was gorgeous in this 1993 movie and it's just a colorful, interesting, fun Western.  What's that you say Dave, you're not really into gorgeous guys.  Trust me, it's still a great movie.  


 



You can NEVER go wrong with a Ton Selleck movie! Monte Walsh is my favorite or his!


You also can't go wrong with a good Robert Duvall movie! Open Range and Broken Trail of 2 of my favorites.


 


I really want to see 1917. I might bite the bullet and pay for it on Amazon to watch it. 


 



Tom Selleck Monte Walsh is a favorite in our house as well!!!


Also, A River Runs Thru It (the scenery and the family dynamics are amazing) , Legends of the Fall (scenery, family dynamics again) Hope Floats ( my mom and I watched and rewatched that a million times so it always makes me think of her) McClintock or War Wagon (for giggles and good ol' John Wayne)  Tombstone (can never get enough of Doc's sardonic wit)

I love Monte Walsh because he acts just like my husband, they are cut from the same cloth.

Watch the "Rounders" with Glen Ford & Henry Fonda it's a classic

It really dates us, doesn't it, when you saw this at the theatre.  I even named a horse Fooler.

Latest movie that I loved was "Togo."  It's on Disney Plus.  Overall good:  historical, true, animals, and kids can watch it.

I've been debating on renting Call of the Wild, but I wasn't sure I liked how computer animated the dog was. 
I might have to give it a try.

If you want to watch movies that are a bit offbeat but entertaining Hi-Lo Country with Woody Harrelson and Rudderless with Billy Crudup are both worth watching.

Trouble with the Curve       - Clint Eastwood, Amy Adams and Justin Timberlake.   

For the Love of the Game -  Kevin Costner

These are both great baseball movies with good life stories attached.

Rounders with Matt Damon and Edward Norton.   

Molly's Game  (true story of Olympic skier who had to find another life after injury)

These are both about poker, and both fabulous movies.

Adding those to my list!

 

I posted a long list, already, but I keep remembering others....

 

So I'll mention separately --- St. Vincent with Bill Murray and Melissa McCarthy (Melissa plays a pretty decent woman/mommy in this - and Bill Murray does a great job acting.  The parts with Naomi Watts could have been left out to make it a less adult rated movie, but I guess it makes his change more impactful).

 

This is not a movie, but on youtube you can watch "Grandfather" - choose "Full Documentary" to show him living all 4 seasons ....VERY interesting the way he lives off the land and respects it- his simple tools - his work ethic. His beautiful piece of land.

Here a few of my favorite movies.


Last Flag Flying. (very good)


Spotlight. (Eye opening)


I,Tonya.(FUNNY)


A Beautiful day in the Neighborhood (He was a Helper)


The Best of Enemies (good message)


Gifted (really loved this movie)


Whip it (funny with a message)


The Young Prodigious T.S. Spivet (a good ride, with great cimematography)


Little boy (good feel)


Hector the Serch for Happiness. (sleeper movie, loved it)


 


Almost a year old...can't let this go into archives yet! :  

 

Still tell people about TS Spivet - and they love it.  

 

(Watched Last Flag Flying, last night.  It WAS a very good movie.  Better to watch if you're not tired and it is late...or if you are in a sad time :)   But very good and funny parts - really good acting!

Along those lines, other good movies I saw recently (military) -

Ithaca (lots of well known actors)

Taking Chance)

 

A Good Year with Russell Crowe is a good one we watched, recenty. Wine, good acting, good romance story

 

Rosalie Goes Shopping  1990    --- this movie popped into my head after I heard a turkey all weekend gobble.  It brought back fond memories of my Grandma who is deceased. We watched that movie a lot and we could never figure out the turkey gobble throughout the movie.  It took some serious meditation (lol)  before the name of the movie came back to me. I looked it up and it has good reviews - if you like "quirky" --- and it was clean.  After reading reviews, now I want to watch Baghdad Cafe, because the same actress is in it.

If you can find it - Phar Lap.  We watched it in the 80's when you had to rent VHS tapes from Blockbuster lol.  It was an excellent movie.  It might have been an Australian film.
