The performances of the two women at the center of BELÉN are two of the best I've seen this year. I just happened to be browsing Prime tonight and see the title pop up (I hadn't got to the screener they sent over yet).

There were brief stretches in the middle of "The Secret Agent" when my mind wandered — it's Friday and I'm tired — but the movie is generally so vibrant and deliciously weird, as well as a not-subtle reminder of the unsettling sensation of living under a regime that can just make people disappear.

Tonight: first-time viewing of BUTCH CASSIDY AND THE SUNDANCE KID. I assume the cast had fun making this movie. It's not much fun to watch, though. Still, Redford hot!

also just on a personal note having worked at both WB and Netflix, I have no faith in either company and anything leadership says about a love of movies is a big fat lie. TCM (where I also once worked) leadership does their best to navigate bomb filled waters every day.

Sometimes I remember the show Frank's Place (starring Tim Reid) and I wonder how many other '80s kids watched it with their parents. I wish it was streaming somewhere.
