Lost Horizon (1937): Or: 'How Shangri–La Got Modern Plumbing'. Too talky in the middle, but good fun.; DVD ~~$19.95~~ $14.95 | Blu-Ray $19.95
Andrew Marr's The Making of Modern Britain (TV Series) (2009)
What's Up, Tiger Lily? (1966): And the Lovin' Spoonful are an extra treat.
Young Man With a Horn (Young Man of Music) (1949): Story has little relation to Biederbecke's life and Douglas makes a pretty wooden jazz musician. Hoagy and the music make up for that though.
Flim-Flam Man, The (1967)
Sinatra: All or Nothing at All (2015): The good, bad and ugly of Frank. Terrific archive footage.
Years And Years (TV Series) (2019): 'Coronation Street' with knobs on. Some nice anti–Trumpian satire too.
Wrong Box, The (1966): Lovely trad farce, British as!
Story of the Jews, The (2013): Very good, very passionate.
Damned, The (1968): Rise–of–Nazis story starts well, but overlong and the melodramatic ending was too much for me!
