🎬 Living (2022) – Random Movie #1718
This week, we review Living (2022), Oliver Hermanus’s quietly moving adaptation of Akira Kurosawa’s Ikiru. Bill Nighy stars as Mr. Williams, a buttoned-up civil servant in 1950s London who, after receiving a terminal diagnosis, sets out to find meaning in a life he’s long kept at arm’s length. With tender performances and a beautifully restrained script by Kazuo Ishiguro, this reflective drama explores purpose, legacy, and the quiet power of small acts.

🎬 The Wrong Man (1957) – Random Movie #1106
This week, we review The Wrong Man (1957), Alfred Hitchcock’s stark and haunting true-crime drama that trades suspenseful thrills for chilling realism. Henry Fonda stars as Manny Balestrero, a real-life musician wrongly accused of robbery, whose life spirals into a nightmare of mistaken identity and bureaucratic indifference.

🎬 My Left Foot (1989) – Random Movie #39
This week, we review My Left Foot (1989), Jim Sheridan’s deeply moving biographical drama about triumph against the odds. Daniel Day-Lewis delivers a powerhouse, Oscar-winning performance as Christy Brown, an Irish writer and painter born with cerebral palsy, who learns to express himself using only his left foot. With Brenda Fricker in an equally stirring role as his devoted mother, the film is an inspiring testament to resilience, creativity, and the strength of the human spirit.

🎬 AVPR: Aliens vs. Predator – Requiem (2007) – Random Movie #15802
This week, we review AVPR: Aliens vs. Predator – Requiem (2007), the dark (literally) and brutal sequel that pits two of cinema’s most iconic extraterrestrial killers against each other in a small Colorado town. Directed by the Strause brothers, this entry in the AVP franchise turns up the gore but dials down the visibility, as the Predator and Xenomorphs clash in a chaotic battle that leaves the human cast struggling to survive. Is it a guilty pleasure or just a murky mess?

🎬 The Parallax View (1974) – Random Movie #7057
This week, we review The Parallax View (1974), Alan J. Pakula’s chilling conspiracy thriller that taps into the paranoia of the 1970s. Warren Beatty stars as a determined journalist investigating a shadowy organization linked to a string of political assassinations. As he digs deeper, reality blurs, trust erodes, and the film descends into a nightmarish exploration of power, control, and manipulation. With its unsettling atmosphere and sharp social commentary, The Parallax View remains a masterclass in political suspense.

🎬 Face/Off (1997) – Random Movie #1404
This week, we review Face/Off (1997), John Woo’s gloriously over-the-top action thriller where identity, vengeance, and slow-motion gunfights collide. Nicolas Cage and John Travolta go full-throttle as a terrorist and an FBI agent who literally swap faces in a mind-bending battle of wits, bullets, and doves. Packed with insane stunts, melodramatic showdowns, and operatic violence, this film is a peak ’90s spectacle that asks: what happens when your worst enemy wears your skin?

🎬 Paths of Glory (1957) – Random Movie # 7 on listener Rob’s all time movie list.
This week, we review Paths of Glory (1957), Stanley Kubrick’s searing anti-war drama that stands as one of the greatest indictments of military corruption and the futility of war. Kirk Douglas stars as Colonel Dax, a principled officer caught between duty and morality when he’s ordered to lead his men on a suicidal assault during World War I. As court-martial proceedings expose the arrogance and cruelty of the top brass, the film delivers a scathing critique of power, sacrifice, and injustice.
