(I went to the fancy-shmancy theatre with the reclining seats. It was nice, but I don't mind the usual seats in the regular movie house since I dont' have back issues.)
Just saw The Danish Girl as well. I brought plenty of tissues, but didn't really need them. The film was beautiful and captured the period in a text-book fashion. But for me something was missing...I can't quite put my finger on it.

Redmayne, who I think is a fine actor, just didn't do for me in this role. I wanted his character to have the impact on me like that of Vikander. He didn't. Yes, it was beautiful and I liked the pace, too. I just wanted more from Redmayne.

Buena Vista Social Club (1999) Director: Wim Wenders
Compay Segundo, Ibrahim Ferrer, Rubén González

Aging Cuban musicians whose talents had been virtually forgotten following Castro's takeover of Cuba, are brought out of retirement by Ry Cooder, who traveled to Havana in order to bring the musicians together, resulting in triumphant performances of extraordinary music, and resurrecting the musicians' careers.

I had seen this once before and just happened to catch it again on tv recently! It's excellent

The last Jurasic Park movie. Saw it last Summer when my sister and her kids came down for a weekend visit. I like going to the movies but my spouse is in a wheelchair and we have to sit up close and she says it hurts her neck.
