don’t call me a bee head…

Well yeah, it’s been a bit dry with the viewing lately. I did watch Out of the Past, it was rather good. Robert Mitchum is always good to see, another good job for him. Kirk Douglas’ role seemed a bit small, but maybe that’s because I don’t really like Kirk Douglas. Anyway, good noir. Good twisty plot, good Femme Fatales. Good action. The back and forth punches in the face out at the cabin, while almost a bit silly, is one of my favorite fight scenes yet. And the fishing pole as defensive weapon …

Anyway, very good. But then, so have been all of the films from the
Film Noir Classic Collection, another incredible bargain that I would recommend to anyone who is a fan of the genre.

I haven’t recently watched much else, except for yet another failed viewing of
The Raven (when am I going to give up on that dumb thing?) and then, last night at Bridget’s birthday party, I had my first exposure to The Andy Milonakis Show! Luckily I don’t have cable, or I’d be hooked! Pretty funny. Funny, funny… I mainly enjoyed the theme, the rappin’ at the old lady and the turrle parents over for tea. Catie like the I have no soul part. Which was pretty funny. The show just oozes NYC and good-naturedness, plus, it’s pretty funny. Who’d have thunk it with MTV? Well, I guess they did have (and then kill) the wonderful Austin Stories a few years back…
