I can highly recommend the CFF film The Man from Nowhere (1976).
It's a 1hr children's film that plays out like a cross between M. R. James' Lost Hearts and The Amazing Mr Blunden.
Some terrifying moments for a CFF production. Directed by James Hill of The Avengers fame.
Try and source a copy.

OK, I bought my son (who's at uni and didn't have room for his big telly) a USB/laptop projector.
He's a film fan and loves the cinema experience.
I heard about this budget model and took a punt. It's amazing - bright, quiet and clear, even in daylight.
Here it is showing a bluray onto a wall.

Really enjoyed the your 'dog/big' video. I have a possible avenue of exploration re: 'BOY'.
In this vid about Suffolk topolect, it mentions how 'BOR' (Alright bor') sounds like 'boy' but is a corruption of 'BAUER' (farmer/farmer's lad/peasant) - 7:14.

I've never watched a Tarantino film twice.
Take out the star names and pop music, remove the secondary, appropriated traces of other people's cool cultural works that his films wear as a shield to mask their vaccuity, and you're left with several filmed records of badly scripted/plotted acting.

There was a time when meadow, grove and stream, the earth, and every common sight,
To me did seem Apparelled in celestial light,
The glory and the freshness of a dream. It is not now as it hath been of yore.
Turn wheresoe'er I may,
By night or day.
The things which I have seen I now can see no more
To me did seem Apparelled in celestial light,
The glory and the freshness of a dream. It is not now as it hath been of yore.
Turn wheresoe'er I may,
By night or day.
The things which I have seen I now can see no more

I was just watching my dvd of CHANCE IN A MILLION and thought s1 ep6 was on FILM.
Not just film, but because I had my bluray player set on 24hz for films, I thought it was a colour telerecording...like those weird Benny Hill ones.
It wasn't.
