    So I’m cast in a true blue action flick called Safe House. STOKED! First action movie! I show up for our fight training/choreography and the fight team comes to me and says “We are gonna make him more of a punching BAG, less a punching MACHINE. Let’s work with what we got.” youtu.be/eMfRemG2tUA?...

    It's from a delightfully unhinged 1998 TV movie called Safe House where Patrick Stewart plays a retired spy with Alzheimer's slowly deteriorating and I think has kept secret data/information and he's worried people are coming to kill him?

    A lot of people will rightfully mention Patrick Stewart in GREEN ROOM, but one role of his I really liked was in the movie SAFE HOUSE, as a retired government agent dealing with both paranoia and being diagnosed with Alzheimer's. It's on YouTube for free, so if you haven't seen it, give it a shot.

    SAFE HOUSE (1998) has an amazing Patrick Stewart performance in a movie I can't actually say is *good*. He plays an aging secret agent who might have Alzheimers or might be playing a con on other operatives or possibly both.

    In 2012, I saw the movie SAFE HOUSE at @amosposner.bsky.social's comparatively even more safe house. We rented it for three days on Apple TV. Due to a glitch, it became fifteen-year rental. For a few years I'd call Amos to check up on SAFE HOUSE, but I've lost touch with SAFE HOUSE.

Suspicions rise as it seems an inside job. Then the safe house comes under attack. Great small scale action. 9/10 #filmsky
