A Portrait of Glasgow - 1980. It’s amazing what hasn’t changed and what is now unrecognisable:

Arco. A delightfully old school animated film, featuring robots, rainbows and time travel. An easy watch. Would highly recommend.

How about a library carriage, it could get connected to other trains. Similar to how some royal carriages used to.
No Other Choice. A compelling watch. Never quite sure where’s it’s going to go next. Lovely supporting characters. Would recommend.

Kiss Kiss Bang Bang. It’s a lot of fun. It’s by the same writer/director as Nice Guys.

The Queen and I by Sue Townsend is a fun read about what if the Royal family were moved to a council estate and had to claim benefits.
Berlin. An enjoyable thriller, more le Carré than Fleming. Currently on Channel 4 in the UK

Basically yes.
Haha. I went through an “Generic Italian” phase. Now I’m “Faking Fancy”. It gets the job done without requiring too much thought.
Harsh, but fair.
Always the way.
Is it particularly good?
Maybe something like a feed with the filtered terms and one without.
Cells at Work. This was a lot of fun, surprisingly tense at times. Nice use of Ride of the Valkyries at a key point. Currently on NetflixUK.

The Eternaut. This was a good slow-build sci-fi series. The setting in Argentina was enjoyably different compared to other sci-fi shows.
