Good Viewing

[idun]

It is rare when I feel like I have watched a decent night's telly but that is what I did the other night.

First watched Bridge of Spies, which I have already seen and one of the rare films I can watch again, followed by Agatha and the Curse of Ishtar, which had a slow first few minutes and then, I really really enjoyed it.

It made me think of how little viewing that really takes my fancy.

Of the films I could watch again and again, and that made me laugh, both starred Brendan Gleeson, a wonderful actor. One is In Bruges, and the other is The Guard. Of other films, I would watch again are Paddington, and Eddie the Eagle without any hesitation.

It isn't as if there are not other films, but those mentioned I found rather uplifting and the first too very very funny.

To this day, the funniest french film I ever saw was Rabbi Jacob, I could hardly speak french when I saw it for the first time, but such was Louis de Funes acting that I laughed until I ached.
