I finished The Mule last night. I enjoyed it. Clint Eastwood seems so genuine. He reminds me a lot of my dad in his mannerisms, the tall lanky way he walks and the way my dad just said what he thought.

Watched a documentary last night called Three Identical Strangers, about triplets who were adopted out at birth and did not know of each others' existence until they were 19 years old. Very interesting and disturbing at the same time, but worth seeing.

That was a very disturbing documentary. Something you may expect to happen, in Nazi Germany. Not, by a Jewish run foundation in New York, in the 1960s.

I think I'd be embarrassed to be there. Some things are meant to be private, to me.

Casablanca-I think I must have seen Casablanca 10 times (or more) already, I love it. We borrowed a copy from the library and watched it again tonight. I never get tired of it. Bogart is the perfect Rick Blaine and Ingrid Bergman as Ilsa is the most beautiful woman to ever be in a movie. She's not the most beautiful woman from Hollywood, but in Casablanca she is stunning.
Getting back to the movie, it is campy and old fashioned. The special effects are terrible, and the story, based on letters of transit, is completely false. Still, it's one of my favorites and I never get tired of it. If you've seen it, watch it again. If you've never seen it, watch it. It's the best 2 hours you'll spend. I might watch it again before we have to return it to the library.
"You played it for her, now play it for me. If she can take it I can take it"
"Round up the usual suspects"
"Here's looking at you kid"
"We'll always have Paris"
"This could be the beginning of a beautiful friendship"
and so many others.
