Re-watched this forgotten, unappreciated and underrated crime/drama.
Harrison Ford received his only Oscar nomination for this role... and when you see his performance, you can understand why.

Pretty meh...
It's got one robber from Home Alone 3 in it. But he's a terrible "proto-Edward Cullen". But Far less interesting... so imagine the awful.
It's not even worth it if you just want to see some random tits. I'd rather watch soggy cardboard grow mold.

Witness (1985). While protecting an Amish boy - who is the sole witness to a brutal murder - and his mother, a detective is forced to seek refuge within their community when his own life is threatened.
This is one of my mum's favourite movies, and I still remember her finally deciding I was old enough to watch it with her (when I probably wasn't, haha) and feeling every way this movie sings. And man, it holds up. Peter Weir really is THAT director, an uncanny touch with both the feminine and the masculine, with tenderness and violence, with languid lyricism and brute, effective punctuation. It's kind of insane to me that his body of work isn't given the same bated-breath treatment as some of his contemporaries. Anyway, this might just be a perfect romantic thriller, and far and away Harrison Ford's best work. 9/10.

THE MIGHTY DUCKS 1992
Have you guys ever seen a flock of ducks flying in perfect formation? It's beautiful. Pretty awesome the way they all stick together. Ducks never say die. Ever seen a duck fight? No way. Why? Because the other animals are afraid. They know that if they mess with one duck, they gotta deal with the whole flock.

Has anyone watched the movie Iceman (1984)? It’s the sci-fi one about a 40000-year-old Neanderthal man found frozen in the Arctic and resurrected in the modern day, starring Timothy Hutton and John Lone. I watched it a few days ago and neeeeeed to talk about it with someone. If anyone has watched it my DMs are open.

- Your sister says you don't have a family.
- No, I don't.
- She thinks that you ought to get married and have children of your own, instead of trying to be a father to hers.
- Yeah.
- Except she thinks you are afraid of the responsibility.
- That's interesting... anything else?
- She thinks you like policing because you think you are right about everything and you're the only one who can do anything, and when you drink a lot of beer you say things like 'none of the other police know a crook from a bag of elbows!'. At least I think that's what she said.
