I watched How Do You Know on Netflix. Didn't realize till it was over it is a 2010 film. I thought it was a made for Netflix movie. But the 2010 date does explain why Reese Witherspoon stopped aging.
Starring Reese Witherspoon, Pual Rudd, Jack Nicholson, and Owen Wilson.
Not a great film but pleasant and fun to watch.
Oh, oh. Just checked and it was a box office bomb and got terrible reviews too.

I watched Just Mercy starring Jamie Foxx and Michael B. Jordan. It was made in 2019 and is a true story based on a book. Very good movie! (the italics will not go off!)

I think this is the excuse I needed to get a free trail for Hulu.

The One and Only Ivan
An adaptation of the award-winning book about one very special gorilla, Disney’s “The One and Only Ivan” is an unforgettable tale...
Quite a good thriller and the acting was brilliant.

I just watched "Marshall" starring Chadwick Boseman, Sterling K. Brown, Kate Hudson and several other recognizable actors. It is the story of Thurgood Marshall defending a black man accused of raping a white woman. Really really good movie!
I just watched "The Thing" (2011). I can see that this didn't make a lot of money. Big plus for actual using Norwegian actors to play Norwegian speaking part of cause. That is something that has become much better than it was example in the 90ies. Then you found people speaking fake Norwegian.
But quite interesting of the two Norwegian songs they picked out for them to sing. Sami Ædnan and a children's song about a cuckoo.

Found another Chadwick Boseman film on VUDU while I was on the treadmill. "The Kill Hole" which is from 2012 and is a disturbing film about combat vets and mercenaries. Good acting but a rather strange movie.
RBG , not a movie but a doco about Ruth Bader Ginsburg she is an associate justice of the Supreme Court USA .
A good person that has a genuine unpretentious about her , and contributed a lot to society.

Thanks!I just watched "The Thing" (2011). I can see that this didn't make a lot of money.

It's always nice to see old videos of music contests, including Eurovision.What about this children's "Cuckoo" song,- i heard it translated into different languages, including Russian. They say, originally it was Estonian, but who knows... Here it is, performed in Russian (a little modified, but recognizable):
Thanks!

That's cool! And very easy to recognize! I guess a lot of children's songs are international, as I hear the notes on pianos in movies from different countries too.

I just watched "Get On Up" starring Chadwick Boseman and several other well known actors. It was released in 2014. This is the story of James Brown and how he rose to fame. A sad note, the actor who played Brown's best friend, also tragically died at a young age in 2017. I was never a James Brown fan, but this movie was really good.

The One and Only Ivan
An adaptation of the award-winning book about one very special gorilla, Disney’s “The One and Only Ivan” is an unforgettable tale...
So I watched it last night and it was really really good.
At the very end they explained that Ivan was a real gorilla. and the story was based on a real true story. I had no idea. They even had pictures of the real Ivan.
Although The One and Only Ivan is an entirely fictional story, it is inspired by the true story of Ivan,[8] who lived in a similar situation for 27 years.[9] Eventually Ivan was adopted by Zoo Atlanta in 1994.[10]

Ivan - Zoo Atlanta
Every life at the Zoo is a story worth sharing, but his story was once told so widely and passionately that it ignited a national movement that touched two coasts. From the jungles of Africa to the shores of the Pacific Northwest to The Ford African Rain Forest at Zoo Atlanta, his life has been...

Enola Holmes on Netflix. what a great movie.
I have a quirk. I hate when a writer takes the name of a famous fictional character and then completely changes it. Strangely enough, the best examples of this is some of the newer versions of Sherlock Holmes. So i wasn't so sure about this spinoff. Maybe the thing that saved this movie from me having That issue is that Enola Holmes never existed in any of the original books or short stories. So Enola is a blank canvas.
in this movie, Enola is Sherlock's little sister. and she is very captivating. In the movie, she is 16, and the actress who plays her is also 16. the actress is the same one who plays Eleven in Stranger Things - which i just loved. Although she looked familiar I didn't make the connection till the credits played.

Almost?! I'm hoping for a sequel. I just learned it's based on a series of books. So maybe we can read those in the meantime.
