I think it was available for a limited time on Amazon.

I thought I'd go for an easy movie to watch, last night. I tried. I turned it off. Maybe I'll finish it tonight. It's from 1984 and my movie expectations have changed. It just seems so dumb and dated for the female's part.

Watched Kodachrome last night. Nothing like I expected and I really enjoyed the story. Ed Harris and Jason Sudeikis were amazing. I guess its a bit of a tear jerker, but I didn't need any tissues.

Watched Last Man Club on Prime. A slow moving comedy that dragged out longer than I would liked but it was ok.

We watched Phantom Thread which was nominated for 6 academy awards. After watching it I renamed it Phantom Entertainment because it certainly lacked it. Definitely not our kind of movie. It was so slow and boring with the dumbest plot I seen in years. The great artistic dress maker who can't handle someone eating toast at breakfast. What a waste of time and $4 on prime. The only good part was the very rare 1955-58 Bristol 405 saloon car that he drove with spirit.

We watched Ava on Netflix last night. Glad we didn't pay to see it at the theater.

Finally got to watch The Shape of Water tonight (for free, if you wait long enough). I know a number of you thought it was good. Totally agree. Good movie. Especially after kicking the neighbor's at Euchre most of the night.

You may have already seen it, some say its a classic like Night of the Living Dead. It's a comedy about a day in the life of two convenience clerks in 1994 yet it could easily be today. I never worked as a clerk but I am sure anyone who has can appreciate what a day there is like.
I watched it last night definitely different! "I wasn't even supposed to work today"

We watched The Whistleblower. Total opposite of a light comedy. It was about trafficking and was based on a true story which made it even more impactful.
