THE GOOD, BAD & UGLY

REALLY GOOD FILMS - THEY MADE MY DAY

Battle of the Sexes

Frothy and thoroughly enjoyable, yet thought-provoking at the same time, this is based on the true story of Billie Jean King (Emma Stone), the top-ranked female tennis player versus Bobby Riggs (Steve Carell in an over the top performance) in what was billed as the Battle of the Sexes. In 1973 the notion that a woman could beat a man in tennis was laughable and Bobby’s outrageous behavior is so bizarre it’s hard to believe that this was reality for women in the 70s. A must see for anyone under 35 who doesn’t remember/know about this era.

THE GOOD, THE BAD & THE UGLY

I loved these films. they made my day:

an inconvenient sequel

Time flies, and it’s been ten years since An Inconvenient Truth warned us about the seriousness of climate change. Once again, Al Gore takes us with him on a journey to find solutions to the environmental disasters we have wrought. Engrossing and important.
