Nice shots. What a tragic end to his life.

Thanks. It feels like a bothersome head cold and thankfully nothing more. Good day to hibernate with snow starting up. We’re supposed to get a big snowfall, which I honestly don’t mind once in a while.

Such a good film. And yes, Denholm Elliott and indeed the entire cast are excellent.

Love it! And I’ve seen it several times.
November 29, 2025 at 8:00 PM
Thanks! Seems like a regular cold so far.
I can always watch this movie. Love it so much.

Definitely worth it!

I do have an unopened bottle of Bulleit bourbon’s premixed old-fashioned cocktail. Might make a nice hot toddy. Good idea!

The film drips southern gothic atmosphere.

Once drove by the place where filming occurred at an old plantation house on Old River Road, outside of New Orleans.

This film scared the hell out of me as a child. Still so easy to immerse myself in it.

Exactly!

Can’t count the times during my journalism career that non-medical doctorate types got upset that our policy was to use “Dr.” only for medical doctors. *shrugs*

I’m in awe of the bravery of people who uproot and start anew.

You made me think of a skit on Kids in the Hall, a show I LOVE!
It included a song:

Marvin and I spent a couple of days/nights this week across the river at Caesars Windsor ( #Canada) checking out restaurants, bars and playing slot machines.
Not big gamblers at all. Didn’t win; didn’t lose much.
Our experience has always been that Canadians are super-nice.

My friends have visited a few times to make sure it’s what they want. They’re tired of the divisiveness and fear-mongering here.

Your mother had good taste!

Same. It transports me to a very specific place and time—a time when the world seemed less threatening.

I’m not, sorry. I know I should but I already spend enough time on socials. I’ll check yours out though.

It’s one of the most horrifying scenes ever—and it’s not even in a horror film.
Yes, the sunglasses masking pure evil in broad daylight is brilliant.
