What Was the Last Movie You Watched?

We started watching True Lies with Arnold Schwarzenegger last night, but I passed out halfway into it -- the result of one too many margaritas. We're going to finish it tonight. It seemed entertaining. I just can't stay awake after drinking any more.
 

The Midnight Sky with George Clooney on Netflix. It was okay, not extremely wonderful, but it held my attention. Cinematography was fantastic. But the story had too many plot lines going, not all of them particularly interesting. Very nice acting by a little girl, about age 9, whose name escapes me. Probably worth checking it out; if you're a science fiction buff, you'll probably enjoy it.
 
I started watching Midnight Sky and was fascinated by the face of the old astronomer. It was his eyes that were so compelling. I did not realise at the time that it was George Clooney. I did not finish watching but intend to go back and watch from beginning to end when I am not tired.
 
Finished True Lies this evening. It was pretty entertaining -- mainly due to the humor from Tom Arnold. Without him, it would have been boring. It did have some cool special effects -- not the CGI effects you see in all the action movies these days, but with stuff actually getting blown up! :)
 
Black Butterfly (2017)

Outside a mountain town grappling with a series of abductions and murders, Paul (Antonio Banderas), a reclusive writer, struggles to start what he hopes will be a career-saving screenplay. After a tense encounter at a diner with a drifter named Jack (Jonathan Rhys Meyers), Paul offers Jack a place to stay-and soon the edgy, demanding Jack muscles his way into Paul's work and the two men begin a jagged game of one-upmanship that will bring at least one tale to an end.

"The Gunfighter" starring Gregory Peck & Karl Malden. It was filmed in 1950. A great black & white film. It was abut a older gunfighter trying to connect with his wife & son after an absence of 10 years.

Was that on Netflix?
 
Last night tried to watch new Meryl Streep on HBO Max "Let Them All Talk"---unwatchable, at least for me. Got through 20 minutes before I screamed for mercy. Ended up on Amazon Prime for prequel of Prime Suspect. Liked it, will watch all episodes.
