    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Somehow, I'd never seen Watchmen before. Fantastic movie.

    A Magnificent Obsession
    Starring Rock Hudson and Jane Wyman (Reagan's ex wife). It's a tear jerker.

    Heaven Can Wait starring Warren Beatty.
    Love the scene with Charles Grodin hiding behind the curtain.

    If you like that, give Man of Steel and Batman v Superman (Ultimate Edition) a shot. From the same director, Zach Snyder. Love the three of these films.

    Trumbo starring Bryan Cranston as Dalton Trumbo...blacklisted screen writer from the McCarthy witch hunt days...great, great film about Hollywood and the politics of a smear campaign..best movie I've seen on Netflix in a long while....Extraction sucked in my view...ugly video game type movie...not recommended.

    And after you watch that, read Trumbo's classic, Johnny Got His Gun, and you will never look at war the same way again.

    We watched Richard Jewell last night Directed and produced by Clint Eastwood. Interesting movie regarding the '96 Olympics bombing in Atlanta. Now I want to see the documentary on the actual bomber, (extreme right-wing wacko) Eric Rudolph.

    I watched Knives Out a couple weeks ago and found it as an entertaining movie. Daniel Craig played a little different part that most would be used to. Solid cast and some good humor mixed in.

    Daniel Craig was a bit funny. A British dude playing a southern detective. Go figure.
