full moon february As disjointed as Tuesdays tend to be for me, Wednesdays are the one day of the week that can offset that awful feeling. Work is far from my life and I can spend the entire day watching movies and or reading without any feelings of guilt. Everything that I need is within the confines of my house and I am happy with that arrangement. In fact, the only reason to step outside my front door is to check the mail. Today all of those things were true. .... SOMA FM introduced me to yet another new band today and as is so often the case when this happens, I found out that the band is no longer around. After doing some research online to find out more about the band, I learned that Seam released their last album seven years ago. Sigh. Knowing this piece of knowledge didn't lessen my love of the song Little Chang Big City. I liked it so much I am thinking that I might need to pick up a copy of Pace is Glacial, their last album. ... A Man of All Seasons has joined my list of historical dramas that I want to own. Henry VIII and his offspring have always fascinated me, so I was curious to see a young Henry arguing with Sir Thomas More. In order to get his divorce Henry separated England from the Roman Catholic Church, an act that More did not approve. Not surprisingly there isn't much action in the film, but the incredible dialogue more than makes up for the lack of action. Paul Scofield is amazing. Listening to him deliver his masterful arguments was more than worth the rental. The only way that he was found guilty was through false testimony. ... Lost satisfied me with yet another good episode tonight and Alias redeemed itself after last weeks dismal effort. My wish is that neither program loses this momentum in the coming weeks. |
