Another bio to check out:
Devil at the Crossroads - A Robert Johnson Story.
At only 48 minutes long it's a quick watch, but then there's more unknown than known about the man.

We watched "Unfrosted" yesterday on Netflix and it was good. A very easy going light humor show from Jerry Seinfeld about the 1970's cereal wars. It was written and produced by a guy I went to high school with Spike Feresten.

Also, just watched "The Edge" on Max. It's from 1997 with Anthony Hopkins and Alec Baldwin. A survival movie with a couple of watch shots in there. Great movie.

Can't ever go wrong with Anthony Hopkins movies, checkout Fracture, that is one of my favorites with him.

Watched Unfrosted last night. I laughed a lot and thought the concept was curiously funny. While not groundbreaking the individual characters [and actors who played them] made it a worthy watch.

We having just finished watching 'The Night Manager'. A very good 6 part series. Recommended

Wiki:
The Night Manager is an espionage novel by British writer John le Carré, published in 1993. It is his first post-Cold War novel, detailing an undercover operation to bring down a major international arms dealer.


Highly recommend.

I just watched Avengement. It is a very brutal revenge movie. Lots of fighting and bloodshed. A lot of character development to though. I like this genre. And for these types of movies, this one was particularly good.

Hopkins is one of the true legends of acting.

I just watched The Judge. It is an exceptional movie and the acting of both Hopkins and RDJ...dang. what a great movie.

Loved The Edge. Will have to check out Fracture.

The Judge was great, watched that over the weekend too. Really liked it. I think that was Duvall not Hopkins though

I watched The Judge last week too. A great movie

I'll have to re-watch Fracture, it's been forever and was a great movie.

I was a bit saddened when watching The Edge and looked up Anthony Hopkins age. Although he looked great and in good shape, he looked old. Old like Anthony Hopkins old. Old because that's what he's always supposed to look like, and looks like in all his movies. But in fact he was my current age when filming The Edge and I just never think of myself as looking that old. I fancy myself more of the Alec Baldwin looking age. Haha. Boy reality sneaks up on ya.

I just watched the Tom Brady roast on Netflix. Pretty funny although it took me two sittings to finish. I'm a biased Patriots fan.

The Matador. A brilliant movie, and I think, Brosnans, best work.
