If anyone's looking for a good movie to watch, here's the trailer for Stalker from 1979. Based off the 1972 novel Roadside Picnic by Arkady and Boris Strugatsky, and directed by Andrei Tarkovsky, it's a Soviet sci-fi movie about a character known only as "The Stalker", who ferries people to a restricted area known as the "Exclusion Zone", where there is a room that supposedly grants people their deepest desires. It was also the inspiration for the video game S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl.

Usually, whenever I have "movie night", I tend to watch 70s-80s action/exploitation/grindhouse movies. However, this month, I've been doing something a little different, what I call "Jeanuary". Basically, I've been watching the movies of the late Jean-Luc Godard, and the most recent one I watched was Alphaville, starring Eddie Constantine as secret agent Lemmy Caution. I thought it was a very good movie because not only did it have elements of film noir, but it even used a couple of tropes from the 70s-80s movies I like so much. I would DEFINITELY watch again!
