Oh I didn't realise it was an adaptation. Possibly that's what happened then.

…maybe that was part of the criticism as well, if it was difficult to adapt so, so much more was hoped from it as the author is a Pulitzer Prize winner…he actually played a role in the movie as well as Anna’s psychologist …which is also very much a nod to Hitchcock …because isn’t it also said that he often made a small appearance in his movies…

…Amy Adams also had to go off to do some filming for Hillbilly Elergy as well while the reshoots for this were happening …so it all just sounds a bit disjointed…(…I’m not sure if disjointed is a movie filming term…a bit higgledy piggledy…?…)…

…The Doors…

Spoiler:

…I hadn’t seen the movie before, Val Kilmer’s portrayal of Jim was almost spooky, really…I mean, he totally became Jim Morrison…but also how it was filmed, we almost felt those ‘trips’ as well, we really did walk through his eyes, well his trippy eyes…I thought Meg Ryan was well cast as well as Pam…I hadn’t realised how short a time after his death that she died as well…he was such a brilliant poet, wasn’t he….anyways yeah, very absorbing and a great recommendation, Niamh……in the stage performances, Val really did become Jim…

The Doors

Spoiler:

great film although I agree with Ammi that you felt like you were almost on that drug journey with him, I nearly felt sick by the end from it I felt really bad for Pam, he treated her terribly really, I wonder how different her life would have been if he'd never persued her. I feel like I watched it with different eyes now compared to when I first watched it at 16. I suppose I saw him as less cool this time and more narcissistic and cruel, maybe not so much cruel but selfish? Still though, so unique and talented as well. Certainly a poet more than anything else

Jim Morrison, what a poet, what a vocalist, but equally, a total nutter

Just doing a bit of reading up on the true story and

Spoiler:

thankfully Jim never locked Pam into a Closet and set it on fire and also never threw a TV at his band mate. Oddly Pam was also 27 when she died

…I read that how his personality was depicted in the movie wasn’t that accurate to the Jim that closer friends knew…and Oliver Stone himself said that his Jim Morrison of the movie was more an abstract painting of the person, his ‘artist interpretation’….

…he was an incredible talent and his performances were intense …/…mesmerising…

….Detroit…WOW….

Spoiler:

…it took me a little while to settle into it, just because I didn’t understand how Will Poulter’s character was still out there and doing active duty when his superior had said that he was going to be charged for the first incident…but there he was and able to do what he did…I mean, what to say about a story like this, it was so harrowing and gruelling and terrifying…it felt more like a horror movie and them all waiting to die one by one…because it really was a horror and just staggering to think that this was just the late 60’s….I felt as though the courtroom part went too quickly but at the same time, it wouldn’t have worked for it to be any longer because of the verdict…how those poor people and their families would have felt …one of the most appalling of stories and injustice…… I was thinking while I was watching, with the emotional and physically torturous ordeal they were being put through…how it must be for an actor to play that….it’s not a movie/story that will leave the thoughts very easily…

Oh Ammi I meant to get back about Detroit, I started watching it but I had to turn it off, it was just like watching a constant news report and I just wasn't enjoying it so I turned it off

…that’s what I thought at the beginning, is this more like a documentary/real news blend type movie…but that’s just the first bit…if you do feel that you want to continue, I promise you’ll be gripped as it takes a completely different vibe…yet it’s all connected as well…it was important to establish how it was for the Afro American population moving into towns and cities at the beginning…and as slavery ended…

I'll give it another go at lunchtime

I actually watched Premonition after I turned it off, I had seen it years ago but I didn't remember it very well, it's pretty good, have you seen it?

…is that the Sandra Bullock one…?…if it is that one, yes I’ve seen it…but a long time ago and I liked it at the time …so I’m fine to watch when I can fit it in and do a review if you want to as well…?…I think that it might be that one because I did notice it was screening again and listed in the popular watches…

…it’s actually not too far in…I don’t want to give too much away obviously but I guess that it could be described as a three section story and establishing the emotions in Detroit between the police and the black community is important so that the actual ‘event’ can follow on ….we also have to be introduced to some significant characters which we are in the first half….I don’t know in terms of actual time but it didn’t feel that long in establishing it once the movie reached the specific story it was telling…

I think I watched up until there was a guy who was maybe a Politician and he was in amongst the rioters trying to get them to stop

….hmmmmm, it’s hard to think….maybe you’re 10/15ish minutes away from the actual event….Has Will Poulter’s character as a police officer come into it yet…?…I was thinking that if you’ve felt the tensions already, maybe you could skip over some…but it’s important to see all of his character scenes from the beginning, I think…
