3 episodes into Ripley. Andrew Scott is excellent and plays the character in a much more subdued way than Matt Damon, who I also thought was great in the role. A very well crafted show.

crazy fookin brit kids, 1974 

just watched this wacky shit.

really slacking on my critierion movie output. this month looks promising. some podcast referenced the sorcerer recently which id never heard of and friedkin is highlighted this month so gonna give it a go. was gonna go in cold but post a trailer then i couldnt help being reminded without even watching it that it was a wages of fear remake. now im a little less enthused but its raining so why not get mired in the mud.

Watching Nolly on PBS masterpiece and Mme Blanc mysteries. Both a little retro in style

Watched a music school double feature last night, Whiplash and CODA. Wasn't that one of Dave's four dominant themes in current film? Evil and benevolent music  teachers respectively. 

I am stressed out, will explain later months from now, but in the meantime I thought I deserved a NCAA Elite 8 (womans) upclose seat, 3/31.

Sadly not IOWA nor the price to see them, LOVED watching her break the record, a pal watched in person, lucky him.....

My first womans game ever, and my third live big basketball ever....

#1 1970-something Celtics, Larry Bird etc, I think, my pop took me

#2 2012 Blazers vs Lakers, took my asshole biz partner and he said "its better on the TV"

#3 Winners of Gonzaga-Texas vs NC State-Stanford

cant find where i mentioned constellation. just finished up the first season. a lot of these start with promise then fall off but i still kind of liked this one though it ended with a whimper. wonder if they will give it a second season.

Oof. RIP Richard Serra nice career arc

perfect french film for someone who doesnt want to read subtitles because im an hour in and about five words have been uttered.

not sure ill make it through but this low budget 80s dystopian teen horror caught my eye. admitedly i didnt realize it was just a zombie flick when i started it. i guess "night of" should have clued me in.
