I recently watched a film that featured Joe Meek's "I Hear a New World" in it. Anyone help me out here?

Pretty sure this isn't it, but there is a Meek biopic, from about 10 or more years ago, made by Nick Moran, one of the actors from Lock Stock... and with Kevin Spacey in. It's OK,

Length aside, loved it. By far and away the best modern Batman movie. A great surprise.

Yeah that was good. Pattinson is great. Still don't think Zoe Kravitz is a good actor, but quite the looker.

Navalny. Outstanding.

No that's not it, it was a feature that used the track. Thanks for that though!

Thanks for the heads-up on this. I briefly saw it is now available on CNN on demand but forgot about it. Will watch this weekend.

I just finished watching this. Somewhat to my (pleasant) surprise, my wife and one of my daughters sat through all of it, too. I did not expect that this kind of documentary would have kept their attention; I suspect it could be attributed to their awareness of what’s going on in Russia, the quality of the film, Navalny’s heavy reliance on social media to spread his message, or a combination of all of the above.

In short, I thought it was really well-done. I hope Navalny is somehow given the opportunity to run for office again in Russia, but I realize that won’t happen until after Putin is no longer in power.

Midnight Sky is really really bad.

Essential Killing, featuring Vincent Gallo as a Taliban fighter on the run in Poland.

Of course Gallo plays a Taliban fighter.
