From the Vine (2019)
A moment of introspection
From the Vine is a wonderful time filler movie and a good choice for a few moments of dreaming. At its core, very much like A Good Year, is that our choices have far reaching consequences. Is it worthy of an Oscar? Nope. Is it worthy of a Razzie either? Absolutely not. It does however offer a good message.
Tin City (2019)
Art in a glass
This doc is truly about real folks in a business that rarely makes one wealthy. Their love for the process and result outweighs the rush that a huge bank account gives a small producer. Winemakers, brewers and distillers
are an interesting bunch and I know many. That first sip and recognition that the product in the glass pleases the drinker is what the vintner shoots for. Its that simple. Tin City is more than just a place. It's a feeling and belief that produces art.
Lilyhammer (2012)
Shame on you Netflix
It's a damn shame that a show so well written is cancelled for a business decision. Suffice it to say, I laughed, I cried and I'd dispense Lilyhammer justice on anyone whose fault it was to take this charming show off the air. Shame!
The Ballad of Buster Scruggs (2018)
A surprisingly good romp through the west
This is a wonderful representation of the short and often brutal life of the west. A story of real life of fictional people makes it no less believable. Stunning locations only add to the realism of life in the mountain west. We all can relate to every character, of course without the often tragic conclusions. Very well done. It is comparable to well written black English comedy and we all know how those end. Enjoy without our normal critical mind and see what happens. It's not Savng Private Ryan but it certainly isn't Howard the Duck either.
