What would you recommend
As a newbie is there a project (however obscure) that I should watch.

Re: What would you recommend
Well here are some projects, but you may have seen them before. I think they are available on DVD, but I haven't checked. Case Histories, Death of Stalin, Dig (lots of screen time, and the series is OK), Brotherhood (but you already bought that?), The Patriot (not a very good movie if you ask me, but it's important to the fandom), Dangerous Lady is the best from his younger days, I think. Civvies is also available on DVD, I think.
Some slightly obscure, and good movies that at least was released on DVD: Good, Skeletons, Dawn.
You can see Scars on Vimeo for free, and it's really good (but hard to watch).
The OA is really good, but it's only on Netflix.
Just to name a few....

Thank You. I am trying to get a dvd of Awake but I suspect that will take some doing.

Good choices, enjoy. I don’t think Awake was ever released on DVD. Maybe there are some unauthorized copies on ebay?

Re: What would you recommend
Just been checking some youtube clips and found one tiny clip of Jason singing Sinatra. Are there many projects where Jason sings.

He sings It’s not unusual at the beginning of Monster family, and he sings in Sweetwater too. The Sinatra singing is from The Last Minute, but the voice in the movie isn’t his. There may be more, but I can’t think of anymore right now

Re: What would you recommend
The OA and Death of Stalin are two of my favorites. Jason was brilliant in both of them. Peter Pan is excellent also.

Re: What would you recommend
Thank you for the recommendations. Not heard much about the OA although I know it is a recent project.
Re: What would you recommend
Annie, I almost forgot: Passionada. I am in the minority on this, but I really liked this film. Yes. He's wearing a wig. I didn't think he looked that bad in it. Again, minority. It's one of the few romantic comedies he's done. So. It's something different.

Re: What would you recommend
I have ordered a copy plus Sweet Watre being trying to get copies of of the Curse of Stepto and the period drama he did with Julia Ormond but cannot find a copy of those. Thank you again.
I think the first I will watch is Skeletons.

Re: What would you recommend
You are up for some great times ahead enjoying all his movies, Annie.
Re: What would you recommend
I believe you are in the UK.
Peter Pan is shown regularly here on TV around Easter and Christmas, during the day as it's "for children". So it's easy to watch it for free many times, and even record it if you have a PVR.
Enjoy Skeletons, it's really idiosyncratic - a weird story but also nice.
Do get Dangerous Lady if you can. Jason's performance will break your heart - and he has one of the two main roles, unlike some things he is in.
