The Grey NATO – 223 – Film Club Vol. 9
It’s the ninth installment, so it can’t be too much of a surprise – welcome to TGN Film Club Vol. 9! We started the Film Club for episode #69 and the TGN boys are back with ten more picks for the collection that span fifty years, multiple genres, and a wide variety of our favorite subjects. From hauling ill-gotten gains over an unforgiving mountain range to possibly seeing dead people, grab your popcorn and give one a try.
From the start, Jason is recovering from a recent illness and James has secured a rowing machine and has been digging into Youtube rowing workouts. Stay in the mix for a round of Final Notes that will have you packing an extra bag and looking a bit differently at the Subarus in your life.

"I'm a writer and, therefore, automatically a suspicious character" - Alfred Hitchcock
Great episode. Was pleasantly surprised to see Ghost in the Shell get a mention. It's definitely one of my favorite movies ever.
With regard to Blade Runner, I prefer the director's and final cuts. I'm OK with the theatrical cut but Ridley Scott has said that he was forced by the studio to put in the VO by the studio as a condition of releasing it. That's my recollection from a making of documentary that was included in the Final Cut DVD box set. So, it wasn't the version he had intended. Harrison Ford also said that he preferred the version without VO in the same documentary.
Just catching up on episodes. Film club is always fun. Jason - if you liked the Sixth Sense, and haven't see it, check out Nicole Kidman in "The Others"...
