Husband is watching "Winchester"

Sarah’s life story and the mansion that she built have been the inspiration of many stories, films and books over the years.  So, it is only fitting that her story was recently brought to the big screen with the release of Winchester, a supernatural thriller directed by Michael and Peter Spierig, and written by the Spierigs and Tom Vaughan. The film stars Helen Mirren as heiress Sarah Winchester, with Jason Clarke and Sarah Snook, and follows Mrs. Winchester as she is haunted by spirits inside her San Jose mansion in 1906.

The Winchester Mystery House® closed its doors to the public for a whirlwind 72-hour film shoot of exteriors, aerials and a few interior rooms.  The rest of the filming was done in the director’s home country of Australia.  Lead actress Helen Mirren did extensive research and visited the estate privately to better understand Sarah’s story and immerse herself in her worlster"...........

Romans 12:16-21

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

No government in the 12,000 years of modern mankind history has led its people into anything but the history books with a simple lesson, don't let this happen to you.

While dog-sitting for my son, had an opportunity to watch PREY on Hulu.

This past weekend:
"Treasure Island", with Charlton Heston as Long John Silver.
I had never previously read the book, never seen the earlier versions, so the story was new to me.

I thought it was quite good. As the story progressed, I didn't see "Charlton Heston"  onscreen, but rather John Silver...

If you have not read Treasure Island, you are poorer for it. I can highly recommend that with all the classics. Movies necessarily cannot do it justice.

Question for all the watchers here:  I've seen little bits and pieces of the War of the Worlds remake on Epix.  I'm wondering if it's worth it to try and figure out how to watch the whole thing.

I have a great affinity for the old classics. Everyone should read them all.  :beer:

During dinner I watched a bit of the Little Rascals movie.  It was really well made.  I used to love watching the Little Rascals when I was a kid.

Also watched Weird: The Al Yankovic Story a while back.

Very deadpan, very dry. But funny. Not quite Walk Hard funny, but a good satire of the whole "biopic" stuff.

Sweet Romantic Comedy from 1955 ... Marty (story about a lonely fellow who meets a lonely Lady... and his journey to happiness)...

Trailer below


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nchN0nEsXnA

You can download it/Stream it for free (in good quality) at the archives...

https://archive.org/details/marty.-1955.1080p.-blu-ray.x-264-si-nners

Also watched "Ball of Fire" (Circa 1941) ... Another Romantic Comedy staring Gary Cooper as a middle age Professor that gets wowed/used/and loved by a pretty lady while trying to figure out language used by the more hip crowd for the dictionary his group is writing.

Not so easy to find... but I found it to download with a little looking.

Yeah, I have watched a few, but they have now all been cookie cutter wrote to where they don't seem where one is different from another.

Also have gave that new Star Wars show "Andor" a whirl and it has bored me for the most part.
