Retired newspaper guy. Just sitting here watching the wheels go round and round. Classic and current films and TV. Arsenal FC, Lakers, Steelers, WVU, Detroit Tigers, Pittsburgh Pirates, Pittsburgh Penguins. Anti-fascist.

Enjoy every sandwich.
Robert Duvall has died at age 95. I first took notice of him as Frank Burns in the film version of M*A*S*H (a very different, darker Frank Burns than the goofball Larry Linville played on television). So many iconic performances since then, including his Oscar win for Tender Mercies.

Tara Lipinski was just 15 years old when she charmed the world with this gold medal performance at the 1998 Olympics (she looked about 12 😂). She became the youngest skater to win gold, breaking a record held by Sonja Henie for more than 70 years.

Train Dreams wins again, this time for Best Feature. That makes me happy. Such a lovely film. It probably won't win any of its four Oscar nominations, but if I had the power to choose the Oscars it would win for cinematography.

Train Dreams is a beautiful film. One of the very best of 2025.

Lurker was really good. Writer/director Alex Russell also won for best first screenplay. See it if you get a chance.

When I was growing up in the 60s, I thought TV repairman would be a great job. I was fascinated by the technology of the day. The hands-on nature of technology made it more accessible than what would follow (even if the advances have been amazing).

I enjoyed that. Had some great location shots along the 101. High-powered cast for sure.

Now seated in auditorium 6 at Cinemark for the 10:15 showing of Crime 101. If it's half as much fun as the movie I saw yesterday (Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die), I'll be quite happy. Catch y'all later.

Now seated in auditorium 11 at Regal Harbour View Grande 16 awaiting the 11:30 a.m. showing of Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die. The rail is too far away for me to settle my feet on. These reclining seats just aren't as comfy. But I'll probably survive. 😁

Catch y'all later.

@christylemire.bsky.social & @aduralde.bsky.social of @bfastallday.bsky.social seemed to have as much fun with Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die as I did. It was totally bonkers. I laughed heartily at the dark humor. But it had a lot to say about society. 👍

I'll bet there hasn't been a day go by in the past 50 years when I didn't wear a hat. Just not a fedora. I'm a baseball cap guy (5:07). That said, I love fedoras (I'd be kicked out of film noir fandom if I didn't).

Siskel & Ebert review the underrated The Dead Pool, the godawful Phantasm 2, the brilliant Midnight Run, a good but not great Rohmer film in Boyfriends and Girlfriends, and they split on Die Hard.
