I’ve never heard of this, but I love the cast, so will definitely give this one a look-see!

Oooh this will be fun! I spent a summer working for the company when they set up in Toronto for the season. As a result I was able to see the show anytime I wanted (and I wanted to a lot) as well as hang with the cast in the little village they had set up out of sight of the public. What a treat that was, and I have been a huge fan ever since.
The good ole days of society. Innocence
They just hid their dirty little secrets better back then.
did I miss something? Does she have the power to put endless poop on the bottom of someone’s shoes?
This could be compared to Enternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, almost…
Funny, I thought the same thing the first time I saw it. They’re both brilliant and thought-provoking, though those are not the only similarities of course.
Some news on 2nd season: Netflix officially announced season 2 in January 2023, giving us fans the news we had been waiting for. However, here we are a year later, and production has still not yet commenced. The good news is that it will begin in April 2024, with filming now taking place in Ireland. Unfortunately, that rules out a 2024 release.
Well that sux. Remember when we only had to wait maybe three months between seasons of our favourite show? And there would be much more than 10 episodes in a season, too.
Abused people, especially children, are susceptible to borderline personality disorder (which has dozens of classifications, not all of which are considered serious). I don’t appreciate the way the viewer never sees Natalia’s tears, but then again, I’ve never had to sit in front of a camera with my prolific abuser story-telling endlessly. Michael is a story-teller. He’s abused as well, but the biggest difference is that he was an adult and he is also accountable. The whole Orphan saga is kind of disgusting, unless the viewer realises it’s pure capitalistic propaganda.
Simply that it I hope it becomes a heartfelt classic for this day and age.
If you use the Google search above, you can find a link to what seems to be a production company website where this film is available for viewing, among others like it. Worth exploring! 💝
ok so can any one tell me where are the people who left gone too
They all died, just as shown on the screens in the silo. The outside is as toxic as they always said it was, however the video showing it as a green and life-filled biome was just for the people going outside to make it easier for them. What a twist. We cried!
Awesome show, great job by Stallone
I agree. We quite liked this. Waiting eagerly for the next season!
Every developed nation on the planet has abolished the death penalty, except for the US. Pretty much the only ones still doing so are oppressive regimes and Islamic states. The death penalty is a barbaric practice that has no moral or logical value. Most of the world understands this to be true.
Simply that it I hope it becomes a heartfelt classic for this day and age.
Always wondered about this movie and yup it is an amazing piece of film. The acting is on top and you get into the drama pretty quickly. Great picture ! :D
Right wing propaganda playing on the fear that Americans have been programmed to dread most, communism/socialism.
Isn’t that something?
I love it when they don’t know the meaning of the word fascist.
This is surprisingly entertaining. It’s certainly not deep drama or even a thriller in the more typical definition, but the performances are great and the relationship dynamics are fun to watch as a fly on the wall.
I haven’t seen the Hulu production of this true story yet, but I will certainly look that one up too.
Not quite but still fun—and also worth watchin’.
Yeah, I agree, but still worth watching if only to have a visit with some beloved characters.
Uncle Georgy would have plenty to say about that. He famously didn’t like those who compensate for their little winkies ¯(°_o)/¯
1969 John Carpenter student film that was rediscovered in the USC archives in 2011. Only notable because it contains the seeds of what would become the highest grossing horror series of all time, Halloween.
Peak 70s Carlin just before Cheech Marin & Rick Moranis attacked him for being irrelevant, causing him to ramp everything up & transition into the comedy god. But yeah, we all know who’s going after J & the rest of us by signalling their lack of virtues. Neocon clowns. Hilarious!
This was surprisingly well-done adaptation of an excellent novel. William Hurt (RIP) did a great job as a Soviet-era Moscow police officer caught in a web of corruption and official lies while just trying to do his job. Classic.
No, I meant people going around down voting for no reason. Jade’s comment wasn’t up more than 10min and received 3 down votes. I know they don’t mean anything and the option should be removed but wtf is wrong with people?
hugs I’ve been lobbying to remove the downvote function for a long time.
Hahahah! Those were gunshots *that “identified” as fireworks . Nutbag.
LISTEN ! being the delightful enchantress that you are…if you DO hear gunshots you better put that poor dog in the tub and hit the deck! !! ✊🙄🤣. Ps. That lady on your wall is not a NASTY bitter 60 year old lunch lady on pcc 🤣✊ but she IS a a terrorist from the March on Washington 2017- silly wabbit -
Pee wee rocks! Mecca lecca hi mecca hiney ho - Jambi please’ Rid me of the green gobin —

Milla Jovovich, Juno Temple and “a bag of flour called Joa”. I’d love to check it out, but Mixdrop is on the fritz.
This looks like perfect unplug-the-brain and have-a-soda watching.
Wish me luck, I’m goin’ in!
Really excited for this. Marvels first adult rated project and not a single wisecrack in the trailer.
Let us hope this is the “wizard of oz” or Edward scissorhands?
Love Yorgos Lanthimos’ movies. I’ve seen quite a few of them. ‘Dogtooth’ was my first & it’s a very strange film but I loved it. So much going on in it. He’s moved in more mainstream directions since ‘The Lobster’ which was excellent but not for everyone due to it’s oddness. ‘Killing Of A Sacred Deer’ was quite good, creepy & quirky & ‘The Favorite’ was excellent & quite a bit more accessible. Looking forward to seeing what’s in store w/this latest film once a good copy shows up.
Well I don’t believe you will be disappointed. This is almost his magnum opus, I think.
Stand together! (* ̄▽ ̄)d
I don’t know what the point is when abuse and homophobic slurs are allowed to stand when they’re pointed at someone the only moderator left doesn’t like. Arbitrary enforcement of the community rules mean no rules at all.
Thanks. You guys really saved me. There’s no way I could have handled this, and also no way I could have stopped once I started watching. I thought this was a teen horror comedy.
Thanks again for the heads up.
Thank you. And you’re nice as well. And notice you got a down vote just for saying something nice to someone, so gave you an up. Someone else will probably come along and knock it out, but never know, it might stay. Always helps to try and be decent with others when we can. Makes the time go by a bit better.
you have made a brilliant synopsis of this film and spot on, I would also like to add. This film was so odd that I couldn’t find the words to break it down without revealing too much. Great job once again.
okay and thanks. It doesn’t help. our fam watched 46 minutes and that was all. We’ll wait for the HD. Thank you, Alien.
Yeah, I would wait for the good copy. We saw it in the theatre, and the colours, the scene settings, the props…all are important and have meaning.
Just came back from watching Wonka on MAX & honestly, it was the silly movie I needed. Lots of fun & music with the cartoony expressions & character. I absolutely loved it! I was not expecting Timothée to do the best as Wonka, as his other roles are more serious, but he nailed it. He was enjoyable & funny. He still has a long way to go for such a role, but this is a great start. I highly recommend it if you wanna watch something goofy, silly & just pure fun :)
It’s remarkable that a previously unpubished author could have a series on the air just 18 months after the book dropped.
And now the book is the most borrowed in libraries across the country. Would that I could…
This is truly the craziest movie I have ever witnessed. It was genius. I loved every minute of it. Emma Stone will win an award for this role, no doubt and Dafoe was incredible too. I loved the ending. It was long but well worth every second. A true masterpiece
That’s the bomb! When we lived in Colorado Springs, we were determined to find the place where he did his research for wireless transmission that JP Morgan shut down, but didn’t find it.
We saw this last night and wow, what an impression it made! I can see how it would be polarizing in the extreme, and its lack of ‘splody pew-pew will immediately alienate a large chunk of the movie-going audience. But with some thought and attention, one can find a real message and a wonderful exploration of the human condition here. It is rife with metaphor and representations of various philosophies and ways of thought, and the main character, Bella (played wonderfully by Emma Stone) is the tabula rasa left to absorb them all. She comes out the other side an amalgam of most, the best parts of each and not all of any one. It’s that last point that finds her at odds with some, who cannot stand the idea that she has made up her own mind and not adopted their own rigid forms of thinking.
Brilliant. Had us talking for hours afterwards.
Lucky you! Anyone remember the old Three Stooges bit? NIiiiagara FAaallls! Slowly I turn! Step by step! Inch by inch! And besides… Niagara Falls is where Tesla had his triumph over Edison & AC conquered DC. It’s a magical place.
Yes, I used to show off the statue of Tesla and the first power generating station he installed there.
The Jesse Stone series is pretty good. Robert B. Parker was one of my favourite authors when I was younger, and these adaptations do not disappoint.
OMG YES PLEASE!
