It isn't fair. You're all the way over there in Russia and you've seen a lot more movies than I have. But I do love movies too.
Hollywood is a best factory of movies, in all other movie production centers there are significant percent of trash movies But if you're interesting of Russian movies, I can recommend you some good ones (for my taste, offcourse ))

There's a Russian super-hero movie coming out soon that's getting a decent amount of hype here in the US. It's called Guardians. I believe there is going to be an English dub available, I'm interested in seeing it.

Of course, the voice-overs in the English dubbed trailer are pretty bad. It looks pretty, though!

I'm glad to hear he's in good spirits! You got this, girl.
We must both be movie junkies, Sbiker. Only a fellow movie nut would respond "WOW!"

Thought that was clever.

I've built up quite a collection of classic movies on DVD, just in time for such a collection to become obsolete due to youtube and streaming services. But what you don't get in formats other than DVD are the special features sections. Short documentaries on the 'making of' and other interesting minutia.
Warner Studios packages something they call 'Warner Night at the Movies'. It's great! They have a short documentary, a news reel of the news that happened the week of the feature film's premier, a cartoon, coming attractions and then the feature film. It's just like going to the theater fifty or sixty or seventy years ago.
I started collecting movies by directors. John Ford, Frank Capra (I'm a sucker for 'Capricorn'), William Wyler, George Stevens. And then contemporary directors. Hal Ashly, Francis Coppola, Martin Scorsese, Stanley Kubrick.We must both be movie junkies, Sbiker. Only a fellow movie nut would respond "WOW!"

Add me to your movie junkies club, but for me there aren't very many 21st century movies that I really appreciate. I much prefer those that are or will soon be classics and even among those, I'm picky.

After a while, I realized that I was only a few movies short of having all the films listed on the American Film Institute's Topp 100 list. So I finished that list.
Then I filled in some gaps genre-wise. A few great musicals, westerns, gangster flicks, comedies.
Now I have over 700 DVDs in cabinets flanking my entertainment center.
My all time favorites include, but are not exclusive to; How Green was my Valley, Bonnie and Clyde, Lawrence of Arabia, Yankee Doodle Dandy, Stagecoach, The Godfather, Citizen Kane, To Kill a Mockingbird, North by Northwest, Being There and The Wizard of Oz.
I don't believe I could call a film "classic" if I could drive myself to see it. That's just too new, even though that distinction begins with films made in the mid 1970s, to be "classic".
I have a fascination with life during wartime, Second World War time. It ended twelve years before I began, but the experiences my parents and grandparents and sainted aunts and uncles had definitely formed my character and outlook. I'm the guy who listens to Jack Benny, Fred Allen, Fibber Magee& Molly on the computer while reading an actual magazine in bed each night. I was born too late for culture.
That's okay. You will have a grand time watching any of them! And there's no better time to watch them than the middle of winter.I started collecting movies by directors.

The only movie on your list of favorites that I've actually seen is The Wizard of Oz.
We saw the sun as a dim ball of light through the ice fog this morning. What a horror last night was, ice fog all night long!
Today I saw sun in window, through clouds - it was like Moon, thickness of clouds were just enough to provide this sight. Wonderful moment.
How old is your son? Do you have any other children?
I remember my milk teeth problems from childhood - it was terrible... And, it's strange, my returns from dental clinic strongly associated with funerals of another Soviet leader of "five-years of magnificent funerals"))) Now my son have the same problems with teeths, and it's terrible again...
Creepy, but true! But, what happens in hunting camp stays in hunting camp. My daughter bagged her first big game animal, a caribou, that year.OK,here goes:Your description of klutzy could be me. Wanna hunting camp story?
Well I learned how to fall from the expert ,my husband in how to fall and not hurt yourself.
The man has fallen a gazillion times since 78 from his MS.
There really is no excuse but to be honest and tell you all I'm a clutz sometimes.
Even when I was a kid I would hook my little toes on chairs and tabel legs.
Sometimes I accidently cut myself with a sharp knife in the kitchen.
Still it's rare and few times over the years.
My left little toe was broken so many times it was curled, by the time I was 30.
My 175lb. Mastiff accidently stepped on it and rebroke it but it's flat again now.
Yes I do.
Please.
The first year I worked in the camp I didn't have my guide's license yet so I agreed to run base camp. I took my (then 13-yr-old)daughter with me. Her job was to look after the master guide's young son. One morning I was preparing breakfast, which included meat patties made of fresh caribou. We used fresh meat off the rack as much as possible. I was cutting the caribou into chunks and my daughter was grinding the meat. Well, I managed to take a sizeable chunk off of my thumb and before I could stop her, the kid had already run it through the grinder. I guess I could legitimately claim to put myself into everything I cook, one way or another.
Awful!! Creepy!
