#botd A day like today, in 1946, John Woo was born. With a unique career that went from melodramas and comedies to hit crime films, then to American with mixed success, and back to China, he has certainly left his mark in cinema. These are my four favorite films of him. What are yours? #hongkong

#botd A day like today, in 1947, the King of Horror himself, Stephen King, was born. Here are four film adaptations from four of his stories that, even though they are not my Top 2 favorites, are four great ones that might be often overlooked or dismissed.

AAARRRR!!! Today is International Talk Like a Pirate Day, so if you wanna talk like a pirate while watching a great #pirate movie, check out 1935's Captain Blood. One of the most entertaining adventure films I've seen, matey 🏴‍☠️

#botd James #Gandolfini was born a day like yesterday, in 1961. Known primarily for his role as Tony Soprano (a series I admit I haven't seen), he also made his mark often as a character actor in films. These are four in which I think he shines, even if the films themselves aren't great.

Today #Chile celebrates its independence, so here's a recommendation of a solid drama film from our Chilean neighbors. Like the title says, Pacto de Fuga (or Jailbreak Pact) follows a group of political prisoners trying to break out of prison.

If you want to see something 9/11-related, but at the same time different, check out this lovely #documentary. It follows the passengers of several flights that were diverted to the small town of Gander, Canada, & the residents that were determined to help these foreigners have the best of times.
