We watched "The Holiday", "The Starling" and" My Sailor, My Love". We saw them all on Amazon movies. It seems that most movies that we want to watch are about 90 minutes or more. We were in the habit of watching some show that ran in episodes but lately we have been enjoying movies. Once in a while, we watch half a movie and the rest of it the following night.
Lynn gave me a boxed set of 24 James Bond movies and Home Alone and Home Alone 2 for Christmas. We haven't watched any of them yet. Some of the James Bond and the Home Alone movies we have seen.
In a way that is similar to not being interested in sex scenes, we are not interested in horror. Personally, I have never found being scared a pleasure. Some of the sex and some of the horror is rather hokey.
I recommend the three movies listed above as unusual stories that are worthwhile in a surprising and memorable way. All three are unusual, not typical stories but all three are imaginative yet civil and believable. I want to add a note that both Netflix and Amazon have tons of movies available so if a title comes to mind, search for it. That movies may be available.
