And reasonably gripping to appease my minimal attention span. Open.to suggestions,like documentaries, true crime, gritty drama. But also other stuff.

Giro/Haji - amazing

PremiumPony · 06/01/2024 22:31

Society of the snow
Movie on Netflix, just out.

Based on a true story of a plane crash in 1972.

Fool me once 100%

Illbefinejustbloodyfine · 06/01/2024 22:35

I keep seeing Giro/haji recommended.

I'll add that and witness No 3 to the list, I'm going for the film, thanks @PremiumPony

Yes, we’re in the middle of Fool me Once. It’s very good so far.

LadyGaGasPokerFace · 06/01/2024 22:38

Good grief is next on my list.

BigBoysDontCry · 06/01/2024 22:41

Godless mini series.

MargaritaThyme · 06/01/2024 22:42

The Crown.

Yes, really.

I was sceptical, but DP wanted to watch it, so we gave it a go. The wonderful performances & incredible production values won me over. Some episodes, eg Vergangenheit in S2 & Aberfan in S3 are just astonishingly good. I have watched Seasons 1-5, and recommend them, but bear in mind that you’re watching entertainment, not history.

By all accounts the final season 6 which features (spoiler alert) Diana’s death is awful, though, so I might give that a miss.

If you like comedy then I highly recommend Brooklyn 99.

Vallmo47 · 06/01/2024 22:44

A nearly normal family.
Scandinavian crime dramas in general.

Yeah series 6 was a bit naff but you’ve kind of got to see it though so I stuck with it!

Just finished Society of the Snow - thoroughly recommend. Harrowing to watch though.

Illbefinejustbloodyfine · 06/01/2024 22:51

I'm midway through S6 of The Crown. Struggling a bit with seeing the royals as I "know" them. Much preferred the years that I knew less about.

I did enjoy A nearly normal family.

Is it a remake of Alive?

I had given up on this half way through episode 1 then decided to watch it to the end of the episode at least and yup now I'm hooked

Blue eyed samurai - I don't watch anime but was totally gripped. Obliterated - hilarious Vegas action comedy. Lupin - French crime thriller.

I never saw alive. It is the same story according to Google but a different way of showing it. Some screenshots from online

We enjoyed Queenpins. I love true story movies and this was one I hadn't heard of before. Easy watching movie!
