Casablanca - had never seen it before.

Really good.

It is Sprint! I find I am watching a lot of the movies my Dad probably queued up to watch at the local theatre. "The African Queen" is a good one as well

Hard to find any decent (new) movies on Netflix or Stan.

I find myself watching the old ones.

Seems to be. I've watched some of the movies that get rave reviews, and they're just pure crap. I find myself watching less and less on there now. Just the occasional series.

A really good Aussie movie, with that dry laconic Aussie humour. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Some of the conservatives on here could learn a thing or two from watching it.

Yes it’s brilliant but I kept wondering what the hell Americans would make of it.
