9/11 One Day in America (2021)
TheAbsintheFairey 6 points 2 years ago.

Wow! This is probably the very best documentary/series ever made about 9/11. Choked me up as it took me back to that dreadful day almost 20 years ago. It’s something I remember every year without fail, and very often at any random time. It still shocks and horrifies and probably always will.

I was kinda expecting this to not draw me in but I’m pleasantly surprised that it has. So good to see him back ♥

Transgender person says she is not responsible for what she did as a man bcause she was a different person then???

Like why did he even reach to catfish in the first place???

TheAbsintheFairey 4 points 3 years ago.

Totally! I think for fame. He’s plainly fame hungry but I do hope it backfires on him and he loses lots of his tik tokers. What an A**hole!

Hey, what a Lovely movie, sweet, romantic and charming, absolutely delightful! It’s a treat to see a young Leslie Caron, she dances beautifully. A young Mel Ferrer too, so handsome and Zsa Zsa Gabor, wow she really was exquisite back in the day! A great film to watch when your heart needs a boost, but be careful who you watch it with.. it had me in tears 3 times! :))x

Beautiful and totally accurate assessment ♥

Secrets of Playboy (2022)
TheAbsintheFairey 6 points 2 years ago*.

That lady who was part of “The Clean-up Crew”, who “Felt terrible” OMG she is trying her damndest to minimise her involvement and play down her role in it all. Sorry love, doesn’t wash with me. You knew exactly what you were doing and you did it for money, nothing more nothing less. I don’t believe she cared a jot about the girls on a deeper level any more than Hef did.
Ok so let’s talk about Hef. I had a fight once with a girl, who is a strong feminist, about Hef and his ‘using girls’. Basically I thought it hypocritical of her as a feminist to say that women can choose what they do with their bodies, as long as it’s doing what she considers ok. I’m playing Devil’s advocate here but if you look at the world as we know it, capitalist society where we depend on money and the making of it, is it so strange that young girls would choose this lifestyle? If a girl has looks and feels certain doors are closed to her as a woman, I don’t think it’s that odd that they chose this over some of the even less appealing alternatives.
This kind of stuff goes on in every strip club, escort agency and red light district around the globe. Sex is a very lucrative commodity in this world and that will never change. It’s not called the oldest profession for nothing. It will continue to exist in ALL it’s forms as long as humans exist.

One Strange Rock (2018)
TheAbsintheFairey 5 points 4 years ago*.

This is one of the best, maybe THE best, shows on how our world came to be and how it functions. Loved hearing the perspectives of the astronauts and the way Will Smith explains things. Oh and let’s not forget, the stunning visuals!♥ 10/10

Australian Survivor (2002) S8 E24
TheAbsintheFairey 5 points 2 years ago.

In spite of the previous comment, whether he was insufferable as a person or not, he is THE best player I have ever seen on any Survivor anywhere in the world. No other person has been able to manipulate everyone else from start to finish consistently, effectively and without fail. The jury’s votes, imo, was based on who they liked most, not who played the best game. Well f**k them all 0/10

Oprah with Meghan and Harry: A CBS Primetime Special (TV Special 2021) (2021)
TheAbsintheFairey 5 points 3 years ago.

I thought it was insightful (Of the royal family), honest and moving. I don’t think it’s easy at all to marry into the royal family, as we know from Diana. These were Harry’s own words, it was his idea to get out. Whatever you may think of Meg, he loves her and he shouldn’t have to put up with innate racism within his own family, no matter who the hell they are! He says himself, she saved him, he was trapped in a gilded cage. I don’t think the average person can understand how stifling that can be till they walk a mile in their shoes. I was discussing this with a friend yesterday before I watched it and did say, she was his escape route. We all know Harry was a free spirit always. I for one am very happy they got out and I don’t see any reason why they shouldn’t be allowed to make a living. I believe he was right and Diana saw it coming. His only money was what she left him. #RIPDiana I think she would be immensely proud of him and quite right too. ♥

Green Book (2018)
armeek 3 points 5 years ago.

✴ Mortensen and Ali both give fabulous performances in this feel good road-trip drama that’s part buddy comedy, part history lesson, and part social commentary on friendship and race…When Tony Lip, a bouncer from an Italian-American neighborhood in the Bronx, is hired to drive Dr. Don Shirley, a world class black pianist, on a concert tour from Manhattan to the Deep South, they must rely on The Green Book to guide them to the few establishments that were then safe for African-Americans. Confronted with racism, danger as well as unexpected humanity and humor they are forced to set aside differences to survive and thrive on the journey of a lifetime.This based on a true story film is an unexpected surprise. Few films are able to combine compelling drama and comedy without stretching one genre or the other…..Really well done, one of my favorite films of all time…. ✴Thank You Link Team.

Totally agree. Is beautiful to see such a sensitive study of mankind at it’s best ♥

WOW!! Incredible battle at the end of this episode!!! Never seen anything quite like this before this series. Those of you who are Drag Race fans will be able to see where a lot of the iconic moves Drag Race use come from. 10/10

I’m FtM, and that excuse is bullshit. Just because a person transitions, doesn’t mean they aren’t responsible for past actions.

TheAbsintheFairey 3 points 3 years ago.

Exactly! They are still the same person inside. Most ridiculous excuse I ever heard LOL ;)

UGuess 4 points 2 years ago*. (Contains Spoilers)

TBH The best BB player for this season truly was Danny and they all know it including Marley. He played from the beginnng to the end-HARD! He didn’t win the money but no one will ever be able to take away what he has established for himself by himself. He deserves a lot of props for that. One thing’s for sure I’m not ever doing BB, I’ll forever be a spectator. Of the final 3, the winner played the most-Congrats! WHAT A RIDE

TheAbsintheFairey 3 points 2 years ago.

Yessss!!! Right result from who was left! Wasnt there a fan fave award tho? Have to admit I got fed up with all the chat and skipped to near the end lmfaooooo

Murder for Hire (2019)
TheAbsintheFairey 3 points 4 years ago.

Very interesting and moving series. This shows the very best, and worst, of what humans are capable of. It demonstrates what lengths a good person will go to to prevent evil, and how far evil people will go to commit murder. 10/10

The Rolling Stones Olé, Olé, Olé!: A Trip Across Latin America (2016)
TheAbsintheFairey 3 points 3 years ago.

What a brilliant documentary! Loved how it showed the politics and the culture of these countries and what the Stones mean to the people of South America but in particular, Cuba! Moved me to tears many times. 10/10 *

Australian Survivor (2002) S8 E24
bytebull -2 points 2 years ago*.

He wasn’t the best ever. Whats Show were you watching? All he did was run around giving away everyones plans to players not in group and really just messed up a lot of the other players games, but didn’t PULL OFF ANYTHING great own his own.

He was just a blow hard that skittled around told everyones secrets and made it to the end by PURE LUCK.

TheAbsintheFairey 4 points 2 years ago.

I don’t agree

Angela Carter: Of Wolves & Women (2018)
TheAbsintheFairey 4 points 4 years ago*.

What an amazing woman! I didn’t know she wrote Company of Wolves, which I thoroughly enjoyed as a movie. My introduction to her was Nights at the Circus and it is still in my top 10 fave books of all time #RIPAngelaCarter ♥

Cyn, well she is the dumbest person in there. Very sad to see Shana played like that. Don’t really care what happens now cos I was #TeamCarson all the way but now he can do one. I think Todrick made an interesting move using the Veto on Tod. Wonder if that will shake up the Todrick/Miesha alliance. I HOPE SO!

Big Brother (2001) S13 E20
UGuess 4 points 2 years ago*.

The nominations and voting has been my favorite as of yet! Didn’t know that one nominee had that much fire & I liked it! This twist was perfect timing and showed just how dumb people still are. SB: I eventually felt bad at end of their first challenge.

TheAbsintheFairey 3 points 2 years ago. (Contains Spoilers)

I think Mary is in big trouble now. I think SJ would have taken her through had she not known that Mary was turning against her. Oh well, you reap what you sow. I’m so happy they FINALLY introduced HoH! Which nominee had fire you didn’t know about UGuess?

thank you for all the links pertaining to this show. I used to watch it with my late husband years ago when we had a house and cable Tv. This is one of many that we enjoyed back in those days

Carson and Cynthia clearly have crayons for brains. I hate saying that because I don’t want to be mean but it is just true. Shrugs

I think Todrick told Meisha about that move before executing it. He doesn’t even yawn without her permission. I’m sure it was just a ploy to keep Todd on their good side since they were sure that Meisha would be safe.

TheAbsintheFairey 3 points 2 years ago*. (Contains Spoilers)

You’re probably right cos now Tod will be their ride or die cos he thinks he owes them. They have played a brilliant game, even tho I don’t like it! lol :P

Genius (2017)
TheAbsintheFairey 3 points 3 years ago*.

Aretha is amazing but is she a genius? I think of Prince when it comes to musical genius because he wrote, composed, produced and played every single instrument that was used on his music and more. Aretha is without doubt an increedible talent but I think rating her as genius is stretching it.
