The Morning Show still isn’t great but Marion Cotillard has been a great addition to the cast.

The Smashing Machine doesn’t deliver a knockout. boxd.it/bfnol7 @letterboxd.social

A ★★★ review of The Smashing Machine (2025)

Always loved the Drysdale quip after Sandy Koufax sat out Game 1 of the 1965 World Series for Yom Kippur: jewishbaseballmuseum.com/spotlight-st...

In 1965, the Dodgers had a big lead in the National League. It was announced that Oct. 6 would be game 1 of the World Series. Oct. 6 was Yom Kippur. They asked Koufax what he would do. He said,

“I’m praying for rain.” He also said he would consult a Rabbi. He never did.

Koufax told a Rabbi: ‘I’m Jewish. I’m a role model. I want them to understand they have to have pride.”

Thousands of Jews said they saw Koufax at various synagogues in Minneapolis. In fact, he never left his hotel room.

Don Drysdale, a Hall of Famer, pitched Game 1. He got bombed, giving up 7 runs. When the manager went out to pull him, he said, “Don’t you wish I was Jewish too?”

I keep thinking about OBAA. I'm pretty close to giving it the rare 5*. Maybe on viewing #3.
