Unbroken.

It is absolutely phenomenal. Angelina Jolie did an excellent job of directing. Jack O'Connell did an amazing job as portraying Louie Zamperini. Miyavi did an outstanding job making me hate Watanabe, the main antagonist, with a fiery passion I didn't know I was capable of today. The fact that it's based on a true story just proves what we can do when we put our minds to it.

I'm feeling decidedly unaccomplished but proud as Hell of him. He experienced so much in his lifetime and survived many times over events that would have taken the will and life of others. Loved this movie.

Jack O'Connell was in the original cast of Skins, my BBC guilty pleasure of quite a while ago (think it is on Netflix for those of you that never saw it. The opening sequence is a hoot of a classic, btw).

Jack is also outstanding in the more recent Starred Up. Also either on Netflix or Amazon Prime now.

Not a movie but first episode of Skins. Love the intro with Tony (Nicholas Holt, he of the blue eyes).
