Maybe I should swap out one OFMD icon for a projector icon or something
Movies: Went to the finale film in the noir series last night, 1981's Pennies from Heaven, after skipping what sounded like a Not My Thing Fraunch film and Richard Gere's Breathless. I have a vague memory of seeing this movie in my high school days when I--like many high-school-aged girls--had a crush on Christopher Walker circa Sarah, Plain and Tall. ( Spoilers? Thoughts? Who cares? )
I'm pretty jazzed that Trylon is doing a Herbert Ross double-header in May. That'll be a treat. Anyway so long noir series. I earned two free popcorns, saw several movies I hadn't seen before, including some Chinese, Korean, and/or Japanese cinema of varying eras that I may never have seen were it not for this series. Next up: Hitchcock's 125th birthday series in April.
TV: Mostly Abbott Elementary: I'm glad they gave Barbara a chance to sing/Sheryl Lee Ralph a chance to sing. I'm gladCam and Mitchell Jacob and Zach broke up. Not as many laughs in the past few eps--I feel like the Janine's weird sub replacements is not as solid a bit as the writers seemingly think it is.
Have also been watching Gizmoplex-era MST3K. They're fun on a bun. Also I can "watch" them while also singing songs to the cats/playing Candy Crush/looking at my phone/think about the journey of Stede Bonnet and how absolutely GREAT it was. Like, do you ever just think about how much he both changed and was fundamentally himself from S1 to S2? Really really solid work. One might advocate for a S3 just based on that. Yeah, I know. Not gonna happen. Guess I'll watch that Dick Turpin Appledy Ploos series that AV Club says is OFMD's spiritual twin.
Friday: Our work building shares space with a daycare. Once in a while, I get the joy of seeing what I think of as the Truffle aged children--like, 2 to 3, mobile but still round and wobbly--head out to play if the weather allows. Just truffle after truffle on one of those walking ropes with handles. A train of cute roundness.
