Rewatched "Bring Her Back" with a friend, and she noted that Sally Hawkins in "Aunt Gladys in a different font."

And, while both movies were produced independently, I can't unsee it.

(It is interesting that both movies are about abusive guardians.)

Ah HAH! Mstislav Rostropovich's interpretations of the Bach Cello Suites. 1991 and apparently per people who know this, incredibly well regarded.

Damn it, I am absolutely blanking on my head of what one of my favorite cello albums (more traditional) is titled and I think you’d kind of like it.

Also since I just saw it off the of the Mockumentary draft and would have been incensed, thanks for noting Mungo Lake was ineligible.

Question 1 made me howl in the car because I literally saw that movie for the first time this week and went “What the FUCK?” at that Joey Ramone dedication.

I remember walking through a Dicks (for non-Americans, the big sports equipment chain here) and being gobsmacked at how much lacrosse stuff costs. And I went to a high school that had a team!

Imagine having $50 million to give and instead of helping to house the homeless or feed the hungry you give it to Stanford football.

Sorry about that. We Newcastle fans are a rowdy lot.

It holds up pretty well! Hell of a way as a kid to be introduced to Robards and Pryce and Grier.

There’s a 30 for 30 on about the ‘80s heyday of Miami U football, and it opens with a little filmstrip from the ‘50s about the University opening in Coral Gables and the narrator keeps referring to it as “Miam-uh” and it’s cracking me up.

Happy #LetterboxdFriday! My #LastFourWatched has a very solid horror short, a kind-of-disappointing VHS entry, Godard getting silly as the bodies pile up and some great starter horror for younger kids.

LAST FOUR WATCHED:

Curve

VHS Halloween

Pierrot le fou
