Fantastic book! Surprised to see it pop up on here.

Maybe there's hope for us GG'ers after all.
As in most cases, the book is better (IMO), but they did a great job adapting it for the big screen too. Great acting and interesting characters. William H. Macy delivers another great performance, which reminds me I really have to watch Boogie Nights again. And Fargo.

The book is so obscure I was wondering if the film was even the same story. You might like Stoner (or might have already read it) as I think it has a similar feel. It has nothing to do with marijuana by the way.Maybe there's hope for us GG'ers after all.

I have and I did - quite a few years back, though, so might be time for a reread. Great book.
Train dreams yesterday became nominated for best picture at the Oscars too.

It's even more disturbing when you walk through all the locations where it was shot (Ruth's house, Jimmy's house, the pub, the high street) every day!
It is an incredible film. They should traumatise every school kid in the world with it.

Watched Marty Supreme last week...lot to like about it...great acting all round and nicely shot.
Then watched Oppenheimer on the iPlayer....more great acting from Cillian Murphy and Robert Downey.

What did you think of the film itself? The acting was spot on but just the subject for me was a tough watch, not really into it enough for it to watch a second time.

Thought it was great. Wouldn't be in a rush to watch it again, but wouldn't say no either.

I found it an interesting insight into the motivations and desperations of war...and how far it will push people.
I've not really studied the core events fully enough previously to know if all events were represented faithfully.
War films is a genre I like....not sure why..some weird resonation/fascination effect on me.

It’s nearly time lads for the film of the year!
Tickets sales for the upcoming Melania Trump documentary look set to be shockingly bad at UK cinemas.
On Friday, Amazon will release Melania, its documentary all about the first lady of the United States, in more than 100 UK cinemas.
But a total of seven tickets have been sold for the first two screenings on Friday afternoon at Vue’s flagship London venue.
Meanwhile, screenings in locations such as Blackburn, Doncaster, Leeds and Nottingham have so far sold no tickets.
Vue’s chief executive has described tickets sales for the film as ‘soft.’
You can say that again!

Why the hell would you put it on in cinemas? People might watch it on tv but hardly anyone was ever going to pay to watch it.

Allegedly it’s some form bribery/ money laundering scam. Not sure what be is is getting in return if true

The studios sometimes make cinemas take things as packages - you can have 100 screenings of Bone Temple but only if you show 90 of Melania etc. Then if the cinemas dont show them, they get financial penalties. Trump has his accolytes in several of the big Hollywood studios
