The Penn theatre in downtown Plymouth has been entertaining movie goers since 1941. That’s about as old as Dave Dahmer’s underpants.
Ever heard the "donut theory"? Certain things are only good the first time - like that first donut.
Someone made a list of movies that are good, but are a bit of a tough watch and only need to be seen once. Here are some highlights:
1. "A Clockwork Orange", 1971 . . . It initially received an X-rating in the U.S. and the aversion-therapy scenes are difficult to watch.
2. "Pink Flamingos", 1972 . . . This one needs no explanation: Divine eats a pig's face AND dog feces.
3. "Deliverance", 1972 . . . The rape scene is something you'll need bleached from your mind.
4. "Schindler's List", 1993 . . . Steven Spielberg's Holocaust film is deeply moving and won seven Oscars.
5. "American History X", 1998 . . . The curb stomping scene that is a tough watch.
6. "Hotel Rwanda", 2004 . . . The horrors of genocide are depicted.
7. "127 Hours", 2010 . . . James Franco cutting his arm off is . . . yikes.
8. "The Revenant", 2015 . . . BEAR ATTACK.
9. "12 Years a Slave", 2013 . . . Lupita Nyong'o's character receives life threatening lashes and is repeatedly raped.
10. "City of God", 2002 . . . This Brazilian film depicts kids killing kids in street gang warfare.
