We watched The Order last night. Based on a true story from the 1980's, Jude Law and Nicholas Hoult are both great in it. Well recommended.

A few we've watched recently on player all based on true stories. Phantom of the Open about a guy who takes up golf and ends up entering  the Open, gentle British comedy with Mark Rylance.

  Nowhere Special, a slow burner set in Ireland about a dying father searching for adoptive parents for his young son. We thought it was very subtle  the way they showed all the things the father was going to miss, if all out action is your thing you probably will switch off after ten minutes 

  Lastly Jim Broadbent in The Duke ,another true story set in the early 60's ,Jim Broadbent plays a working class guy in the North East  who steals a famous painting.

Hi Mick One of my favourite Guillermo Del Toro films. I recently watched it again. Brilliant film

[Woodbutcher]

Started the new year by watching one I've been saving for a rainy day , "Lee" starring Kate Winslet.

No spoilers from me , suffice it to say it's the best thing I've seen for many a month and I wish I'd watched it sooner.

Currently watching “Lockerbie - A search for truth”

Heart breaking stuff, opening episode extremely poignant. 
 

Colin Firth masterly portrays Dr Jim Swire who’s daughter was a victim and who searches relentlessly for the truth behind the atrocity.
