Up 545am: A chance of light rain all day with temps to the upper 40's.
I wrote up 'THE WRONG SIDE OF GOODBYE' by Michael Connelly.
Watched 'WHY DON'T YOU PLAY IN HELL?' (Kanopy). 'FUCK BOMBERS- The Fantastic Cinema Club' make the most important film in the history of movies- "THE BLOOD OF WOLVES". Two rival Yakuza gangs become the actors & crew in the extravaganza and a young woman who made an enchanting toothpaste commercial a decade previously leads the charge. It's very Absurdist/ Surreal and willfully irrational yet hilarious. 8 wins & 11 nominations. "68" Metascore.
Began 'DIRTY PICTURES' (Amazon Prime). A look at the life's work of, an American scientist {The Godfather of Psychedelics} who developed more than 200 psychedelic compounds. He once worked for Dow Chemical and made millions for the company from his synthesis of new pesticides. They gave him full reign of their laboratories, but now he's more of an alchemist and works out of a very cluttered lab at his home. He looked pretty frail in the film and I learned on Wikipedia that he died in 2014 at the age of 88.
