I think you'd really enjoy it. It's incredibly well done.

Yeah, it's very timely.

Watched this for the first time a few weeks ago and enjoyed it. Judy Holliday has become one of my favorite actresses.

Season 4 of Jack Ryan. New season of The Lincoln Lawyer just dropped on Netflix, so I'm anxious to watch that, too.

I enjoy this movie. The drunken fight scene is hilarious!

I used to have the book and somehow misplaced it? So I ordered another copy! I need a new show to watch - so I'll check out Billions. Thanks!

Tetris about how a Dutch-American name Henk Rogers obtained the licensing and patent for the video game Tetris. Seeing how Communist Russia freaked out over a video game was pretty eye-opening. Based on a true story, but I don't know how faithful it is to what really happened.

I like this movie. But like you said, it's good, but not great.

Mildred Pierce by James Cain. The Bird Way: A New Look at How Birds Talk, Work, Play, Parent, and Think by Jennifer Ackerman.

The Gilded Age on HBO Max or Max or whatever it is they're calling themselves now. This lush, gorgeous period drama is vapid and frothy, but still a ton of fun. The costumes are eye candy - so beautiful and detailed that I often miss what the characters are doing because I'm drooling over what...

Really great review, @Fading Fast . I'm now watching Flaxy Martin for the third time, which means I probably need to add it to my DVD collection.

Wichita, an excellent western with Joel McCrea.
