Anyone going to see the new "Midway" flic? Woody Harrelson as Admiral Nimitz? Interesting casting. Wonder if old Chester is going to have a hot Blonde in every port?

This one has the makings of a 500kg armor-piercing bomb.

Parasite-A very good movie though a bit long and a bit unusual. In Korean with English subtitles. Very good character development though it takes a while to develop the characters, and a very good, if unusual story. Interesting ending. And very well worth seeing.

As is the case with most foreign films, the theatre was mostly empty. We went to the 9:30 showing and there were only about 12 to 15 people in the audience.

I just bought a reserved seat ticket for Ford vs. Ferrari on Thursday evening here in Loveland, CO. I hope it's more fun than the last movie I saw there, "The Art of Racing In the Rain."

We went to the theater yesterday to see JoJo Rabbit, a funny satire about a 10-year old boy in Germany, 1945. It's a dark comedy, not light-hearted. I thought it was very well done.

Patricia, I hope they give Ken Miles the respect he deserves in the movie. He was essential to the Shelby program. Not only was he a great driver, he was also a gifted racecar engineer who was robbed of win at the 24 Hours of LeMans.

^Yes, Dave! He got lots of respect and Ford not so much.

^I loved the movie! It was a blast to watch with lots of laughs from the small audience. I knew nothing about the story beforehand but looking around on the internet I think they got it right.
