Su 4/4/21- Easter
845 am. 140 pm. 920 pm.
Up 730 am: Partly sunny with temps to the mid 70's.
Watched 'DERAILED' (Hoopla). A man meets an intriguing woman on his commuter train and they become friends and one night they visit a motel. Just after they enter the room, they're robbed, beaten, and she gets raped, but it's only the opening chapter in an elaborate con. However, in the end, the man is able to even the score and then some. I suspected that it was a scam from the beginning, but the film was much more clever than the usual 'revenge porn'; with Clive Owen, Jennifer Aniston, and Vincent Cassel.
Then watched 'PINK FLOYD- Meddle: Classic Album Under Review' (Amazon Prime). I had never heard of this album which was released in 1971, right after 'Atom Heart Mother'. The film is more than just an explanation of the album, but an insightful discussion of the band just before they developed their signature sound that came to fruition on 'DARK SIDE OF THE MOON', 'Wish You Were Here', 'Animals', and 'The Wall'. It seems this is the first chance that David Gilmour was given his chance to shine and Richard Wright provides the perfect counterpoint on keyboards. It's David Gilmour's best work before the recording of 'THE DIVISION BELL' in 1994.
1250 pm: The Weekly Cleaning and then an afternoon at Planet Fitness.
***Bridge closed for repairs and I was lost in the maze of Sherwood.
Same trouble with checking in, but I made sure that I was on Planet Fitness Wi-Fi.
45" Cross. 45" Treadmill. 30" Recumbent Bike. 30" Cross.
7 pm: In the tub with HARRIS and listening to THE BOX TOPS, ? & THE MYSTERIANS, THE YOUNGBLOODS.
***Listening to 'Echoes- PINK FLOYD ('Meddle). Hallucinatory lyrics and some very trippy musical ensemble work.
Watched 'MR. BROOKS' (Hoopla). A classy 'B-Movie' about a serial killer who is trying to stop his addiction to murder. He even attends AA meetings to curb his murderous urges, but his alter-ego won't let him stop. A careless act puts him at the mercy of a blackmailer and then he suspects that his daughter might also have his 'thrill kill' gene; with Kevin Costner, Demi Moore, Dane Cook, and William Hurt... "Would it bother you to kill a woman? No, an asshole is an asshole"...
