The Company You Keep - Documentary
Vanity - sort of | 08/10/2014 | Vendome

Posted on 08/10/2014 9:10:43 PM PDT by Vendome

So, I recorded this program "The Company You Keep" A former Weather Underground craptivist goes on the run after a journalist uncovers his real identity.

So! My question: I have the option of watching:

40 something (I think it's hilarious, no matter I've seen it 10+ times)

Jubal - A western, 1956, starring Glenn Ford.

The Big Red One - Awesome WWII film with Lee Marvin. Luv this one too.

Or, bonus movie.... Get Carter w/ Stallone and finally atman Begins w/ Christian Bale.

So, which should I watch?

I recorded the Undergroung thingy a month ago and keep finding other things to watch.

Part of me says hit delete, the other part says keep it like luggage that'll get used one day.

What say you Freepers?

I'll be walking while reading your replies.

Jubal is good. Glen Ford, Ernest Borgnine, Carroll O’Conner, Charles Bronson. (Just watched it today)

Big Red One is good.

I saw The Company You Keep last month. Typical propaganda that you would expect from robert redford. It’s not a good movie.

I know what you mean. Me too. I mentioned it just to point out the quality of movies that are there now.

Also a huge collection of film noir which another FReeper mentioned a few weeks ago. That post prompted me to poke around and see what else was available.

Yep.

Obviously a plus.


But I actually like Starship Troopers, it's a guilty pleasure. [The animated one, Roughnecks: The Starship Troopers Chronicles, was actually pretty good; it got a 7.6 off IMDb.]
(I haven't seen the last two movoes, yet... I've got them slated for watching with family; if they turn out to be horrible then at least I've shared the pain.)
