Thank you!Sass, you might like Whatever Love Means too. It's mainly about Camilla Parker Bowles' relationship with Charles. She got around, if you know what I mean.
Found it and added it to my list.

Charlie Wilson's War- Tom Hanks, Julia Roberts
Pretty good so far
"In the early 1980s, Charlie Wilson is a womanizing US congressional representative from Texas who seemed to be in the minor leagues, except for the fact that he is a member of two major foreign policy and covert-ops committees. However, prodded by his major conservative supporter, Houston Socialite Joanne Herring, Wilson learns about the plight the people are suffering in the brutal Soviet occupation of Afghanistan. With the help of the maverick CIA agent, Gustav "Gust" Avrakotos, Wilson dedicates his canny political efforts to supply the Afghan mujahideen with the weapons and support to defeat the Soviet Union. However, Charlie Wilson eventually learns that while military victory can be had, there are other consequences and prices to that fight that are ignored to everyone's sorrow."

If you haven't already, be sure to watch the Oprah interview with Meghan and Harry. Unbelievable

I know the Queen has a hard heart, but it was surprising to me that Charles would just stand by and let that happen to his son, his daughter-in-law, and his grand child. I think Harry has a lot of Diana in him...

Everything for The Crown! LolI know the Queen has a hard heart, but it was surprising to me that Charles would just stand by and let that happen to his son, his daughter-in-law, and his grand child. I think Harry has a lot of Diana in him...
I agree about Harry.
Cooksie, if you get the chance watch the Gordon Lightfoot and Creedence Clearwater Revival documentaries on tubi.
I'm not a real big fan of CCR, but it was good.
The one on Gordon Lightfoot was superb.
It starts out in an interview with him fairly recently (like 2 years ago, man has he aged)- he talks about all his music, how he writes lyrics, his personal life etc.
I enjoyed it so much I may watch it again.

Going on my list, love Gordon Lightfoot....Sundown, you better take care
Yesterday tubi added a lot of good movies.
Unfortunately "Rock Star" with Jennifer Aniston and Mark Wahlberg wasn't one of them.?
I got about 20 minutes in and had to stop.
It was THAT bad.
Lol

We rewatched Full Monty The other night. There was a day I would have been all in on that caper.
Right now we are watching all the Brit murder shows on Acorn, Britbox, etc. Monday will be the final installment of Bloodlands and highly recommend it.

This!
It's from 2009, I'd never seen it before.
The performances were AMAZING!
Crosby, Stills and Nash..wow!
Stevie Wonder and Sting paired up, u2 with Bruce Springsteen and Patti Smith.
When Simon and Garfunkel sang The Boxer I was literally in tears.
Only got through half of it.
I'll watch the rest later.

Tried it, don't like Rock Star either.
I need a little more direction. Is it on Tubi? If so, what category is the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in? I looked and can't find it

So far it's really good.
Stevie Wonder is a genius. He's great on his own, but he can play backup for just about anybody. I really liked him with Smokey Robinson and absolutely loved him with BB King and Sting. Still have some to watch.
Simon and Garfunkel....bridge over troubled water
BB King blew me away!So far it's really good.

They all did.
Great film, one that I would watch all over again.
This is my current list.
There are so many to choose from it's unreal.
Cooksie, I highly recommend Sound City!
SilverSage
Resident Crone
The Queens Gambit was outstanding.

I'll check it out. You seem to be able to dig up things that I really like

I'm betting you'll enjoy it.I'll check it out. You seem to be able to dig up things that I really like
Also check out "I Saw The Light", if you haven't.
Story of Hank Williams from his rise to fame until his death at 29.
That's in the drama/music category.

Netflix
I guess they brought this back up because of Prince Philip's death. It's one of the best documentaries that I've watched about the royal family.

Watching The Nevers.
Last night I browsed the new suggested list of movies for me, based on ones I've viewed prior - on tubi.
I believe this one came up because of recent music documentaries I'd viewed.
It has a great soundtrack, but I found the movie to be entertaining and disturbing at the same time.
It's the movie Boogie Nights, with Burt Reynolds, Mark Wahlberg and Julianne Moore in the leading roles.
It's set in the 70s during the disco era, and deals with the adult film industry.
I never thought I'd hear those actors say such things. ?
After getting about 20 minutes in to the movie, it dawned on me that it was a mockumentary. It was meant to be making fun of that industry.
It's one that you get a lot of shock from because of the sex, violence and drugs, but there were also quite a few funny moments.
My takeaway was the good soundtrack.
