Hello.

Okay so some backstory - since moving in to my new house last year I'm living alone for the first time.... well, ever in 40+ years, which means I get full control over my TV watching for the first time ever. Anyway, I decided I wanted to diversify my movie consumption, because I do love a screen evening to decompress. So. I asked my friends on Facebook to tell me their favourite movie. Then I was recced a podcast You Are Good (formerly Why Are Dads) which talks about feelings in movies. And THEN my LARP group came up with a "what movie should I watch" list of 200+ movies, of which I haven't seen 76, so... I have a lot of movies to watch! I started writing up some of them on Facebook, and then on Discord and I kinda figured I needed somewhere to collect my thoughts. So - Hello, Dreamwidth.

Ocean's 11 (1960) was my one addition to the list which I hadn't seen.... because I needed an excuse, I guess. So thank god RNG brought it up! I love heist movies, and I love the Rat Pack, so this was perfect.

Ocean's 11 stars Frank Sinatra Sammy Davis Jnr, Dean Martin et al as a group of WW2 vets who get together to use their crack military skills to pull off the greatest theft of all time, etc etc etc. It's early in the history of the heist genre, but a lot of the key parts are there.

What I wasn't expecting, though, was the ending, ( which I am putting behind a cut )
