I just finished watching 'Unthinkable' on Netflix. A very intense, gory movie that really left me thinking about the unthinkable. I enjoyed it but others may not due to the torture.scenes.

I watched part of this movie on my flight from SNA to DEN last night. The flights aren't long enough to finish a movie. I'm curious to see more of it but I probably won't. I wasn't enjoying how she was treated so it was a downer to me.

I just watched "The Catcher Was A Spy" on Netflix. It is a pretty good movie. It kept me entertained which can be hard at times.

It's a tough watch but raises some questions about the weight of a few human lives vs the lives of many. It's the trolley problem turned up to 11.

I went old school tonight and watched The French Connection, I had never seen it before thought it was pretty good. I liked the cinematography I would guess it was pretty cutting edge for 1971.

I went and saw "Arthur The King" today. It was not my first choice but what I wanted to see wasn't at a good time for me. The movie was base on a true story and was a feel good type movie. I would suggest others see it but wait until it gets to Netflix or Prime.

I did learn one thing today which I guess I already knew but forgot. Some women can't shut up during a movie. I had two in front of me that had to jump and scream at each scene and about 4 behind me that just talked continuously. There were another two that had to describe each what was happening to each other.

Watching Turning Point The Bomb and the Cold War on Netflix. It is a documentary beginning with the finalization of WW2. It is very well done and extremely interesting. I'm amazed at the memories it brings back and just how much history I'd forgotten about the Cold War. Highly recommend it.
