 Sa 3/27/21

920 am. 1245 pm. 1015 pm.

Up 8am: Partly cloudy with rain beginning this afternoon- temps almost to 70.

Watched 'BLOOD TIES' (Hoopla). Based on a French film that was based on a French novel, and the director of this English/American version is also French..."Back In The New York Groove"... Set in Brooklyn and Manhattan in the mid 70's and concerns two brothers- one's a cop and the other a criminal. Great set details, cars, clothing, and the soundtrack is excellent; with Clive Owen, Billy Crudup, Marion Cotillard, Mila Kunis, James Caan, Noah Emmerich, and Lili Taylor.

I also borrowed 'TAMMY'S ALWAYS DYING' from Hoopla.

1 pm: A walk to mail back the Netflix disc before the rain begins. PO box by Walgreens, across to Washington, Adams, Governor, South on alley west of Walnut, Leland, Wiggins, up the hill, Parkview, and down to 940...JUST UNDER TWO HOURS... Mp3... 'Already Free' ~ DEREK TRUCKS BAND, 'Armed Forces' ~ ELVIS, JACK BRUCE~ 'Cities Of The Heart'. 

Reading 'MOTHERLESS BROOKLYN' on the couch. 

6 pm: ON THE TREADMILL... 1 1/2 Miles at 3.4 pace and more of STANHOPE/ROGAN. 

In the tub with JONATHAN LETHHAM and listening to HERBIE HANCOCK, DEXTER GORDON, 'SIGN OF THE TIMES' ~ Prince. 

'Butt Trust' ~ the inversion of 'Brain Trust' from 'MOTHERLESS BROOKLYN'. 

Sarah Silverman on 'Getting Doug With High' was asked if she was feeling euphoric. She replied, 'I still remember death'. 

Watched 'TAMMY'S ALWAYS DYING' (Hoopla). A Mother/Daughter relationship that's totally Passive/Aggressive. Mom is an alcoholic abuser and her daughter is too weak to stand up for herself. Then mom is diagnosed with terminal cancer and in the final scene she does jump off a bridge so you could say this movie is a tribute to suicide. From a review: "...it skirts the line of overwrought melodrama and poverty porn..."' with Felicity Huffman and Anastasia Phillips. Shot in Hamilton and Toronto, Canada.
