I seem to always begin with a title, and go from there. A main idea or five, to corral my thoughts.
No such luck today. I have about eight different stories to share, and no dots to connect, and here comes my rambling. ( I need to learn how to vlog, so I can just talk to you, and blast my thoughts all over the heavens!) ( Bon talks, instead of Ted talks) However I will try to hit the keys, and purge my soul.
The lawn people are cutting the grass before the rains come, and I feel intruded upon. Yet so very thankful for these wonderful people. Also for some strange reason, my beloved is watching a movie in the computer room with me. Not good, we have a TV in every room of the house, why this room? I also hear his computer keys clicking, I may not be able to think or write at all!!
Let me just throw this out here. My dad trained me to watch all the Oscar movies, every year. So I do. We just finished the last one, Minari. It is a Korean film, in Korean, so branch out people and use sub titles. It is fantastic, in a slow moving molasses kind of way. Sad, funny, different, touching, (sitting here thinking of better adjectives)Worthy!!! yes Worthy, you need to see it. You will have to rent it, pretend you are going on a date to the movies, with yourself or your better half. This truthful, decent, film will stay with you.
Now for a quick heads up Sound of Metal blew me away! Again, a very pure movie, off the beaten path of popular movie hoopla. No Marvel Comic book hero's, or is there? There are many different kinds of super people, broken people who heal. WATCH this movie.
Judas and The Black Messiah, holy mother, so many movies that are required viewing. We have to learn to be better humans. What you read and watch, stay with you. It is important for your growth at any age, to keep trying to be better, WATCH IT!!!
The Father, all of us are old, oldish, or knocking on heavens door. Here is another jewel, about dementia and caregivers, and Sir Anthony Hopkins. GEEZ Louise, need I say more.
There are other oscar movies this year, that chances are you have seen, the more seen ones. ( I think I have written about those in the past, like Nomadland) There are many things we have watched during Rona prison, or Covid Vacay. These few I jotted down, all eyes should see.
They touched my soul, in many kinds of ways, joy comes in many forms.
Hope you take the time to explore the movies, this past year.
Hubby is doing something on the ground with cords, with his computer, so I have to close. I think my neck is getting tight!!
Love to you on this Saturday and every Saturday.

NEXT blog will be about Hemingway, I have gone down the rabbit hole of Ernest again, after Ken Burns three part series on this man. PBS, Hope you saw that to, so we can discus, next time. Maybe later today, when all these people in my life, stop moving around.
Love
