Any movies you have enjoyed recently - Hoping by asking the PE thread I’ll get something half worth watching. TIA
Edit: no finance movies, I must have watched every single one at least three times over . Yes even that wierd one with Danny Devito.
2nd edit: so sick of long covid, I’ve never wanted to create shareholder value more in my life.

The brutalist, the girl with the dragon tattoo
Cheers - been meaning to watch the brutalist
It’s definitely one of the longer movies I’ve seen but I was a fan
Hope you get well soon, Covid blows
What types of movies are you into? Very open ended question but I really enjoyed Sing Sing and A Real Pain. Particularly the former given its written by former inmates of the prison and many of the actors are real life inmates who eventually were released. A Real Pain is pretty funny (imagine two 20 year olds traveling internationally) but also very emotional too and has resonance (what is pain is the open ended question).
If you like spy movies with more of a “who done it” feel then Black Bag was p good. One of Soderbergh‘s better movies in a while. We Live in Time with Andrew Garfield and Florence Pugh was great but it’s very emotional, particularly if you know anyone who’s dealt with illnesses.
Can also plug Anora as a really good movie / fun but I wasn’t the biggest fan (is it the best movie of 2024? Probably not but it’s still p good and especially on the low budget they made it on).
Good recommendations.
I’m open to most genres, less so the who done its, howver, enjoyed the night manager which whilst not fantastical deceptive maintained an allure of suspense.
I’ll certainly check out a few of these suggestions. Appreciate it.
No problem. Also don’t know if you’ve seen The Apprentice with Sebastian Stan and Jeremy Strong as Trump and Roy Cohn but highly recommend. Would avoid it if you lean either way on the political spectrum but for a neutral look at Trump and also how he became who he is today + influence of Roy Cohn (who apart from the 1950s McCarthyism I didn’t know much about), it was pretty good.
Some other recent movies (over past few years) would include Zone of Interest, Killers of Flower Moon, and Poor Things. I also liked Air a lot with Ben Affleck and Matt Damon / Chris Tucker (basically how Nike rose to the top in basketball by signing Jordan).
Has anyone else had long Covid in IB/PE - how long were you off for? What happened, did you get laid off?
Even if you know someone that got it, not yourself, would appreciate any info on what happened and how it was managed in the office.
TIA.
