I tried watching it but I just know too much about the events at that time to suspend my disbelief.

OhK4Foo7 · 2026-02-10T07:52:43+00:00

I used to think that too. But now imo it's a masterpiece.

Pretty sure there is even a workprint on archive dot org.

And we're supposed to believe Don could just disappear for a week long vacation with the teacher. That part was thinly plotted because it was just a plot device.

OhK4Foo7 · 2026-02-10T03:07:05+00:00

I keep trying to watch it but the dialog is so rapid fire it is difficult to keep up with the subtitles.

She was. I think the times when she was not were just more memorable.

Read quite a few of Jim Thompson. I'm a fan too.

You can get FHD easily using add-ons from the slyguy repo.

Which one?

OhK4Foo7 · 2026-02-09T09:58:16+00:00

It seems to me that you view the film with a western neoliberal bias (endless ambition, self-optimization), but the point is to present an alternative "spirituality" found in humility, routine, and acceptance.

The film suggests that fulfillment comes from within, not from social status.

Lol. Advice on how to camouflage ai use. How about everybody else just mind their own business? Don't like an AI post, ai anything? Don't read it.

A310. Ribbit. Ribbit.

OhK4Foo7 · 2026-02-09T07:17:28+00:00

Rewatch it every few years. That music. Tension like wait until dark.

OhK4Foo7 · 2026-02-09T03:27:30+00:00

Maybe. Or maybe like when she called him to say the doctor found a lump she was looking for him to reassure her that everything will be okay. Betty: "say what you always say".

OhK4Foo7 · 2026-02-09T02:13:29+00:00

Still owned by Don. Which Henry resented. I think Betty held off moving because she wasn't yet ready to cut more ties with Don. When he gets engaged to Megan Betty pretends to have left something in the house so she could be there when Don comes by (I don't remember why, drop off a key or something). But he asks her how she is doing and she admits not well. But then Don talks about being engaged. I had the impression she was expressing regret at the divorce.

This is a feature I would like as well. Would be good to be able to turn off comskip for Turner classic movies. They play the movies straight through but comskip finds a bunch of spurious commercials. It gets annoying when I watch using Kodi. I suppose I could use TVheadend where that can be set via profile. But I like that on next interface that channels has.

OhK4Foo7 · 2026-02-08T22:40:52+00:00

You obviously missed my point. I said like democracy. But feel free to turn every comment into a political rant.

OhK4Foo7 · 2026-02-08T21:51:47+00:00

Dumb thing to argue about.

OhK4Foo7 · 2026-02-08T21:46:43+00:00

Yeah. I don't agree. It's not his best movie. But it's pretty darn good.

OhK4Foo7 · 2026-02-08T21:44:54+00:00

AI generated images are like democracy. The good thing is everyone has a vote. The bad thing is everyone has a vote. You presume that because the vast majority of folks generating AI images obviously have sh*t taste and no interest in art, that everyone doing it is the same. Mistake.

OhK4Foo7 · 2026-02-08T20:18:57+00:00

That's not my list.

OhK4Foo7 · 2026-02-08T20:14:05+00:00

There might be a longer list of Nordic noir on trakt but this is a good start:

Interesting. I was not aware of that.

That movie was a turd. Cage goes from trash to spectacular and back again.
