Marching band at the Scottish Games and Celtic Festival near Syracuse NY.
After a ponderous first act, The Odyssey (2026) finally finds a groove. Two thumbs up.
A still from the old TV show Naked City, which was filmed on location around New York City. This is from a 1962 episode and in the background at a newspaper stand you can see the first comic appearance of Spider-Man, Amazing Fantasy #15, which today is worth millions in near mint condition.
Two thumbs up for The Love That Remains (2025), a family drama set in the rugged beauty of Iceland.
I had to look it up and all of this sounds like financial hell to me:
Two thumbs way up for The Secret Agent (2025). Wagner Moura is nominated for a best actor Oscar.
Two thumbs way up for the incredibly moving How to Make Millions Before Grandma Dies (2024).
Two thumbs up for This Sporting Life (1963), starring Richard Harris.
Two thumbs up for The Narrow Road to the North, about an Australian unit in a Japanese POW camp during World War II.
Two thumbs up for Nouvelle Vague (2025), an account of the making of Breathless by Jean Luc Godard, the film that gave birth to the French new wave of cinema.
I had a feeling they'd beat Detroit. I have the same feeling about Green Bay. #skol
