I hear ya, Rap. I find that I end up watching most movies online or on DVD, older titles or things that someone may bring to my attention. I realize that I may miss out on some good stuff by being a hermit, but it is just my way. Now, something like Winters Tale, will be something that I will look for at some point (assuming my memory can retain it!!).
For example, a friend and I just watched Message in a Bottle (Kevin Costner, Paul Newman) a couple of weeks ago on Amazon Prime; wonderful movie, had never heard of it at the time it was out.
The man who produced Winters Tale was on with Glenn Beck last week and was almost in tears about the panning of the movie from the critics since the death of his wife is what drove him to make a film of the book.
I won't waste time on movies from Quentin Tarantino and I'm not a Baz Luhrman fan, though I would like to see his version of Gatsby, somehow I don't think it will come close to the original. I like Matthew McConneghy and just about anything he is in and he worked very hard on Dallas Buyers Club - so I would like to see it.. I also want to see American Hustle - set in the 70's and fictional, but based on things that went on in the 70's.. plus I like Jennifer Lawrence and Bradley Cooper and Amy Adams...
Want an entertaining Clint Eastwood movie watch The Trouble with the Curve with Eastwood and Amy Adams.
