Wife and I watched September 5 last night. It’s about how ABC Sports covered the terrorist attack at the ‘72 Olympics.
It was really good. Highly recommended. Free on Amazon for Prime members with only 1 commercial interruption.

Watched the last 2 scream movies. 5 had a decent plot but overall was bleh. Scream 6 just sucked.
They should have stopped at 3 or even 4

I was hoping to find some new stuff….instead I got The Birds, American Graffiti, The Jerk and Uncle Buck….
I just watched The Night Before. Good cast. Bad movie.
Joseph Gordon Levitt and Lizzie Caplan play former lovers, and even they can’t save the movie.

I recommend Talk to Me, and It’s What’s Inside for a couple lesser known Netflix thrillers.

Wasted 2 hours and watched Fountain of Youth. Tried to be The Mummy, National Treasure and DaVinci Code all rolled into one. Failed on all accounts. Writing was horrible.

Dear Lord, Jaws is not a Boston movie. It's not even set in New England, never mind Massachusetts. The Vineyard was the setting for Amity, a fictional resort island in New York State. Brody was a retired NYC cop, and Quint was a local. The only one even close to being from Boston was Hooper, because he worked at WHOI. Stupid internet!
Anyway, it should be Good Will Hunting. Runner up, Mystic River, which only loses points for the terrible accents. Honorable mention to The Friends of Eddie Coyle.
on the "Jaws" front.The movie in question, our first summer blockbuster, supplanted "The Poseidon Adventure" as favorite flick of my young life upon release (1975). I was crazy for sharks and used to draw them all the time in school. I even read Benchley's book.
All-time Boston favorite, probably "Good Will Hunting." I love "The Town" too; it's a hilarious cartoon.
" The Friends of Eddie Coyle" evokes early to mid '70s Boston, a rough time on several fronts.

I was 10 when Jaws came out. My mother was a stickler for the MPA Ratings, so there was no way a 10 year old was going to see a PG (Yes, it was PG!) rated film. Especially after my older sister saw it and refused to go to the beach that entire summer. So I had to settle for reading Benchley's far more racier book out of my mother's sight. The movie is easily in my Top 5, and has been my July 4th annual viewing tradition for almost 30 years.
Damn, Manchester by the Sea sure got a raw deal on that Bracket seeding...Bracket: What is the best Boston movie?

Its the #3 seed in the same Regional as The Town AND The Departed?
It should have gotten a #2 seed and been slotted into a different Regional.
Love Story is garbage. One of the most overrated movies of all time. No way it deserved the #2, and it was deservedly upset in the first round.

I saw anything I wanted as my mother was none the wiser.
I think it was '74, so I was about 11.
Me and my friend Jeff convinced his mother to take us to a drive-in double bill.
"Dirty Harry" and "Magnum Force."
Not rated PG.
When she realized this, she hit the roof (metaphorically).
The opening bit from the latter flick, exposing our ignorant eyes to a vengeful pimp force feeding one of his ladies Drano (she had the temerity to hold out on him) was an interesting introduction into the world of adult cinema.
I remember I also felt queasy and had to go out into the theater lobby for some air whilst viewing "The Towering Inferno" (1974).
This one featured a guy running around a lux high-rise on fire.
Good times.

I actually think Gone Baby Gone better captures Boston than most Boston movies.
Watched 28 days later last night. Watching 28 weeks later tonight. Hoping to get a date for 28 years later some time soon.
