So there was sort of Film Noir marathon on TMC today and being me and while cleaning I watched it. So now I've decided that I like the film genre. However, the Maltese Falcon put me to sleep. Some might gasp because it is suppose to be 'according the critics' one of the best, but if that is the best...😢

Are there other good movies out there?

No I also watch period/historical films, westerns, comedies, romance drama aka chick flicks, some anime, and the occasional vampire or werewolf film.

Recently: Hero (I love this movie)
Elizabeth
Chicago (yes the musical)

I didn't see Sideways, it just didn't have that RENT ME AND WATCH ME appeal.

Tombstone is a 1993 revisionist Western movie written by Kevin Jarre and directed by George P. Cosmatos. The story involves Wyatt Earp and his brothers moving to Tombstone, Arizona where they and Doc Holliday face off against a band of criminals called the Cowboys.

Thank you Wikipedia. 😉

It is one of the greatest Westerns of all time.

I suggest you rent it if you want to explore one of more interesting parts of American History, da ole west!
