Marc, you go to the head of St. Peter's line to enter the Pearly Gates. I just hope it won't be until we're long out of this mess.

I loved it, one of the best of the year, but I'm surprised it broke that record. But it's about time!

We should be accurate here. The full quote gave the sense of "[They say] I'm a dictator. but sometimes you need a dictator." What he said is awful enough without de-contexting it, which is what MAGA always does.

So much weirdness in his text that people have ignored his saying he can NOW begin thinking about what is best for the US. Hey MAGA, is that America First?

Saw it at the theater when it came out. Our group LOVED it, fell in love with Mary Steenburgen en masse, and then I watched it endlessly on cable. "The first one to raise a fist is the one who has run out of ideas" has stuck with me all these years.

If you want to take a left turn, read something different but something that still grabs you, read one of the four great ones by Wilkie Collins (Victorian writer). The Moonstone, The Woman in White, Armadale, or No Name. His writing style is very modern for his period, and his plotting is tops.

Fabulous writer. She is so underrated and wrote a good bit of her hubbie's stuff.

Probably Hitchcock's masterpiece, though there are several of his films I love just as much. Herrmann's music!

I concur with other comments. Huckleberry Finn is the greatest of American novels, despite a terrible ending that undoes the emotional depth that preceded it. But it's Twain's story, and I'd always want to see his ending. Many good books have poor endings. We love them warts and all.

Everything Trump touches dies. And now the rot is spreading up the hands he touches with. May that rot continue, and continue rapidly enough that this is the last holiday season marred by his loathsome personality.

The transfer has been processed so gradually, over decades, that those who have been robbed don't even realize it, and often defend and support the robber barons.

Any future Bond movies need to be made as period pieces, matching the era when Fleming wrote them. Go back to the books, rather than making them the generic techno-action films they've evolved into. Audiences would love it.
