    I am Legend. Make fun of me and we can meet at Mt. Tabor or wherever the fight spot is.

    I'm talking about where he has to kill his German Shepherd. I had one when I was a kid.

    About Time

    Little know movie that is currently on Netflix.

    The scenes with the father and son are heartbreaking.

    Watch, you'll like.

    Seconded. Men can also sell it to their lady friends as a romantic comedy (which it technically is) and stay for the time travel and father-son relationship stuff. Just a great movie overall.

    I was really surprised on how good it was and how little buzz it got.

    In the same genre The Time Traveler's Wife is also very good.

    Not a movie but a TV mini series, The Ascent of Man, written and narrated by Jacob Bronowski. It was riveting until I got to the part about all of his fellow Jews who were murdered by the Nazis and then it got both riveting and extremely sad, especially the part where he is just outside a concentration camp in Poland and he reaches down scooping up a handful of soil with his hand and declares that this is the remains of thousands of dead Jews. I can't recall how this related to the ascent of man because I saw it about 45 years ago. Good thing I was alone because no one likes to see a man cry and men don't like others to see them cry.
    It appears that there were at least 11 episodes to this series and I am linking episode 1 to this post. The other episodes should be easy to find.

    Love is a Many-Splendored Thing. Your generation wouldn't understand it. I feel sad thinking about it right now. Life sucks.
