Tu 12/25/18- Xmas Day-
710am; mostly sunny to upper 40's
NIGHT MOVES Arthur Penn/ James Woods/ Melanie Griffith/ Gene Hackman. Perfect Detective Noir and Melanie Griffith played a sixteen year old and she looked about twelve.
NETWORK Sidney Lumet William Holden/ Fay Dunaway/ Peter Finch/ Ned Beatty. Lots of 'speechifying' but it was masterfully done. Great film.
FAIL STATE- doc. Watched most of a documentary about 'For Profit Education'- 'FAIL STATE' (Xfinity).
Walk 230pm; Up the street and over east on Parkview/ thru the park to MacArthur/ then back thru the park/ Parkview- almost exactly One Hour.
Wrapped the gifts and shaved; no shower. On the road to The Brandenburgs at 430pm.
All were present and they were opening gifts. Joe was suffering from a urinary infection. A lot of that going around these days. Had a chicken wing/ a couple of meat balls/ and some quiche....not much.
I received a Brandenburg Calendar, but I forgot it and I'll get it on my birthday.
Home to watch 'CARRIE'; one of the films that will be dropped by Amazon Prime at the end of the month. A very fine Brian DePalma film- with Cissy Spacek/ Nancy Allen/ Amy Irving!
More 'HARD TIME' (Netflix) So many millions of Americans are behind bars that it hardly makes an impression any more. This 'Lock'em Up' policy only benefits the private owners of the prison/ industrial complex, but most definitely leads to a dumber, hard-hearted, and more violent society in general.
