Jim and A.Ron cover another classic movie this week, with 1998’s “The Mask of Zorro”, starring Antonio Banderas, Anthony Hopkins, and Catherine Zeta-Jones. This is one of the last classic Hollywood movies, where stunt men did incredible stunts seamlessly and it was a lot of fun.
Jim and A.Ron continue a trend of covering movies that cover a time period of ’69-’92. They discuss the “H” word, prescient knowledge of future events, and what works vs. what doesn’t.
Jim and A.Ron discuss all of the details of the 3rd annual “Groundhog Day” charity marathon. They discuss the money raised, the charity chosen, and the pros and cons of the format this year.
Jim and A.Ron discuss the free-spirited classic, Easy Rider. They enjoyed the value of this kick-off to ‘New Hollywood’, and it’s resonance through the years.
In 2020, Bald Move is watching 24 consecutive hours of natural disaster themed movies in support of relief efforts for the Australian Bushfires. Direct Relief is a top rated charity according to Charity Navigator.
Jim and A.Ron have shockingly never done a review of the 1993 film, Groundhog Day, despite having watched it live on stream for 24 hours previously.
Tonight Jim and I went to see Sam Mendes’ WW1 film, 1917. It was a truly harrowing experience, and a strangely intimate piece despite the grand scale of the theater and war itself. George MacKay and Dean-Charles Chapman do incredible work forging an emotional connection with the audience in a very short amount of screen time. The movie is paced flawlessly, shot beautifully, whether it’s the pitiless hell of no-man’s land or a burning French town illuminated chiefly by the harsh flat light of flares as the British and German troops play a deadly game of cat and mouse. It’s an extremely tough watch in places, but an effective reminder of the horrors and pointless futility of war.
