Simple & Effective). Partly cloudy with temps to upper 80's with crushing humidity. Weekly Cleaning ***50 mg doesn't pack as big a wallop unless you walk briskly while coming on. Began 'BRAVEHEART' (Kanopy).  The movie is not as much 'directed' as it is 'dictated'. I shut it down at 1' 37" and about an hour and twenty left. I'll watch it tomorrow morning. It cost me extra credits at Kanopy and I could have done it for less at Hoopla.  Finished 'MARLEY' (Hoopla). He died of cancer and he was only 36 years old. More 'MARCELLA' (Netflix). I shut it down 15 minutes into episode #6. This still makes little sense, but it's compelling as hell. Contemporary Londo...

Watched 'HER BODY' (Kanopy). A female Czech Olympic high diver suffers a serious spinal injury and becomes a porn star. She died of brain cancer at the age of 27.

The plot was insanely complicated and involved her 'passing as black' and a dilapidated apartment complex worth 500 million if it is burned to the ground; with Ray Liotta, LL Cool J, Mekhi Phifer, Chiwetel Ejiofor.

A Malaysian prison guard works the same facility as the man who was incarcerated for the murder of his sister. Later the guard learns that the man was not only innocent, but a virtual saint among men.

However, a major heat wave is moving in for the weekend with temps to the mid 90's. Mowed Lawn 8am- 9am; just a cut and no trimming.  Watched 'PROJECT X' (Hoopla). It's a well shot faux-documentary about a high school kid's party that spirals out of control.

She works herself to the bone and sends money back home to support her family. When she returns she learns that the family has been giving away her hard earned cash. The movie was so strange that it could only be appreciated by a Filipino audience...I guess. Also, this film boasts  the  ugliest looking cast that I've ever seen. I think the main character was a drag queen, but the character was so odd that I couldn't tell. The life insurance pay-off is ten million Philippine pesos and that is $178,300 usd. Watch...

It's got some grizzly scenes of violence and not much else.  The film is set and shot in the Philippines. Finished 'THE SECRETS OF THE GRECO FAMILY' (Netflix).
