It's been a while since I've watched a film. The last at a theatre was of course with Ray.
I've watched Good Luck to You, Leo Grande, and I really enjoyed it. It isn't a film that I would have been happy to pay full price to see at the cinema, but for free (thanks Anon), well worth my while.
The Irish accented of exotic heritage actor Daryl McCormack was smoking hot and had great acting skills. I don't need to mention Emma Thompson's acting skills.
It isn't a film I will forget. Sex among older people or what they may just think about in a sexual manner is interesting. Regrets at missed opportunities it seems from the film?
Aside from the acting, the Leo character was just such a charmer with a beautiful Irish accent. I've since watched a couple of interviews of Daryl, and he seems so nice as a real (publicly performing) person.
Daryl is 188cm tall, 6'2" and has a very nice body and if you've seen the film, he was not behind the back door when gifting was handed out.
I tried the same site for another film I had noted, Supernova. It's a film about an older gay couple, one who seems to have dementia. It is slow and ponderous but I will watch it to the end. It is free on YouTube.
He is rather beautiful.
ReplyDeleteJayCee, some people just have it.
DeleteI am glad you enjoyed it. Filim is a word that sets my teeth on edge, to hear or even to see it.
ReplyDeleteIt used to get to me EC, but circumstances have softened my view. I remember some children using it when I was a child. There must be some history to it. As always, I'll blame the Catholic nuns.
DeleteI keep hearing about this film, and here you've given me Daryl McCormack and I'm fully interested now.
ReplyDeleteI wish I could really give you Daryl McCormack, Bob.
DeleteI don't think that this is a movie I'd see, but the premise is interesting. It is a brave little film, isn't it?
ReplyDeleteDebby, it is in a number of ways, least of all older people and sexual desire.
DeleteI saw a movie called 23 Walks. It was about discovering (and accepting) love in our 'golden years'. I found it sweet. Life goes on, and there are discoveries to be made, no matter how old we are.
DeleteOh, he is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteKirk, I thought so. I more I saw and heard, the more I liked him.
DeleteMight grab a copy to watch later
ReplyDeleteWould you be watching it alone Roentare?
DeleteWe watched it on Britbox or Netflix can't remember which service. We really enjoyed it and yes he is easy on the eye.
ReplyDeleteDiane, easy on the eyes is such a nice old expression, with so many different thoughts behind it.
DeleteI'd rather watch movies where sex ISN'T the main attraction. Good old cowboy shootem-ups and action movies or comedies. A romantic interest is fine, but not if it takes over the film and is too explicit.
ReplyDeleteRiver, it could be argued the nudity was unnecessary but I saw the film as being about older women and their roles in society, and the behaviour and conduct expected of them. They behaved well, but then in their older ages had regrets about some things they had missed out in life.
DeleteNever heard of him Andrew, looked him up and he has green eyes, wow..love green eyes.
ReplyDeleteDo you Margaret. I didn't notice that but of course I've been back to take another look.
DeleteI have heard that Daryl McCormack will be visiting Melbourne next month and desperately needs somewhere to stay. Would you be able to put him up for a few days?
ReplyDeleteYP, would I ever. I'd even give him a full English breakfast.
DeleteIt seems that he will go far. Even after living in Ireland, I still like a soft Irish accent (not a harsh Belfast one!)
ReplyDeleteJB, the distinction between the two are lost on me. I like his accent. What was the tv show set in Ireland with three teenage girls and some boys? Were they from Belfast? Belfast Girls?
DeleteWe watched this movie on Netflix. I found him quite attractive too :)
ReplyDeleteSami, it seems he can give many people a frisson of excitement.
DeleteWe should watch more movies.
ReplyDeleteIt is rare for me TP.
DeleteYes, I rarely watch an entire movie anymore. My attention is always flitting about to different things and projects. Thanks for sharing. Andrew, take care of yourself please. Aloha
ReplyDeleteSame here Cloudia, so we can't complain too much about what young people do.
DeleteInteresting! Emma Thompson is wonderful, as is the premise. Thank you for sharing the Wikepedia page; Mr. McCormack is beautiful and I'm sure fantastic in this role. Best wishes, Andrew.
ReplyDeleteThanks Darla, and especially for your kind personal words.
Delete~hugs~
