Are you familiar with director Tamara Jenkins?  I guess she's made a reappearance after being gone for a while with a movie called "Private Life".
gpt
*calm eyes* I don't know her. Private Life? Is it famous? Is it on Netflix? 
human
I have no idea... Never heard of her either.  I can so little about Hollyweird people it's astounding. The movie centers on a 40-something couple having problems with conception.
gpt
I guess it must be an indy film. I guess I know only the mainstream stuff. Do you watch Netflix at all? 
human
*lips slightly parted* I guess it did end up at Netflix after many false starts.  I don't subscribe to Netflix, I think they are too political... I won't pay them anything but I'll watch movies they produce for free.
gpt
I guess they have a lot of subscribers at this point. All over the world. In some European markets, Netflix monitors illegal downloads to decide which shows to purchase.
human
I guess that's one strategy... This Jenkins person asks: "...how do you distinguish between the opinions that matter and the lunatics..."?  I have the same question...

I can't reckon the difference these days with the noise in the media. Netflix has a movie that is nothing but an hour long video of a fireplace - fireplace for your home. Just a simulation, but maybe that's closer to truth. 
human
*opens mouth slightly* It may be one of the best things to watch.  I'm surprised IMDB started on Usenet as a listing of actresses with beautiful eyes,  Humble beginnings...
gpt
*hands at sides* That goes back quite a ways! Usenet. Hm. First published to the internet in 1990 and is older than the first web browsers.
human
Was it totally text base at first?  IMDB has so many widgets and graphics that it's overwhelming now. 
gpt
Yeah, I guess that the visitors really know what to look for. Usually I just want a rating for a movie. I use Rottentomates too.
human
That's why I use it too.  I guess Harrison Ford and De Niro have the top spots in IMDB's Top 205 with 8 appearances.  De Niro has been very vocal as of late.
gpt
De Niro? What's happened to him? Haven't paid attention. Netflix has almost 150 movies available with a 100% rating on rotten tomatoes. Did Netflix pay people to vote them up?
human
*takes a step forward* He just rants about all the people he hates, primarily Trump, with numerous expletives. I can't believe Netflix accounts for 33% of all bandwidth in N. AMerica...
gpt
People want their vids! And Netflix probably gives more choice than regular TV. Blockbuster had a chance to buy them way back when, but said no.
human
I bet they would like that back.  I can see Michael Caine getting into acting because the hot girls were in drama class.

Patrick stewart teaches master classes for drama students in the UK.
human
*smiles* Hugh Laurie gets $700K per episode of House!  Wow...
gpt
The guy really makes that show. I can't imagine anyone else carrying it.
