I watched a few films during the lockdown, saw Citizen Kane and the Third Man for the first time, both were pretty good.

Also watched the one where The Rock rescues people on a helicopter, that was good fun.

Citizen Kane was on TV here in the UK a few weeks ago. I had never seen it before and thought it dragged a bit, but I do very much like the Third Man. The Stranger is another Orson Welles film worth watching.
I finally found a copy of Two-Lane Blacktop one of thse films that I've long wanted to see but is never on the TV or at the cinema. One of the best road movies ever.
Coming up next week on UK TV is Dark City, a film noir with a very young Charlton Heston (his third film) and the very beautiful Lizbeth Scott. I am really looking forward to this.

One of the movies I jotted down was Aguirre, The Wrath of God. I watched it on Youtube. It was certainly different. Loved Anton Kraus's zither playing in The Third Man. It really made the movie. A movie I saw when I was a little kid was The Little Fugitive. For some reason it had always stuck with me, and awhile back I looked it up and watched it again. It had been hailed as a masterpiece in France, and just as the zither was the background music in The Third Man, a harmonica was the background music in The Little Fugitive. I didn't remember that title, but a search using plot descriptions found it.
And of course, that triumphant cinematic miracle, Wild Women of Wongo is a must see!
