I've discovered one movie, from the ones that I recently viewed while exercising, that I would consider notable enough to comment on. There's others worth mentioning... but this is the one that comes to mind at this time. It's titled "Laurel Canyon". This movie kept me interested through the majority of the story, primarily because of the music and as the below Internet review indicates - it takes some interesting twists and turns:
Newly graduated psychiatrist Sam and his fiancee Alex move to Los Angeles for Sam's residency, into Sam's mother's house in upscale Laurel Canyon. Only problem is, Sam's mother is still there, supposedly finishing up a record that she's producing for the band of her new boy toy, Ian. She seems more interested in smoking pot and drinking than actually working, though. Alex doesn't mind, but Sam is quite upset. Alex starts off focused on her work (finishing a dissertation on genomics), but is soon distracted by the rock-'n-roll lifestyle going on around her. Meanwhile, Sam is equally distracted by beautiful Israeli intern Sara.
The actors make things believable and the setting reminded me of some happenings commonly associated with the sixties and seventies. I can relate to that.
You might want to check it out, if you like movies of this genre.
