All quiet on the eastern front.
For now, at least.

I am thankful.
Thank you, everyone, for the HHW vibes!

Glad to read that.

Watching Nevada Smith. Steve McQueen, Brian Keith. (Funny that tonight’s other Western had Sebastian Cabot.)

I always liked Steve McQueen. Even in Enemy of the People.

Either Muse Margaret's hubby didn't tell her I e-mailed the stuff or he didn't look or listen to the message I left, or she was too tired to read tonight.

Things I did today:

I had Lamar Livingston and his brother come by and prune all my shrubbery, cutting back some massive overgrowths.

I also watched two movies this evening:

The first one was "Unbreakable", M. Night Shyamalan's follow-up to "The Sixth Sense."  Bruce Willis has never been better in any film than he is in this one, IMO.  And Spencer Treat Clark as his son was superb.  Shyamalan exacted sterling performances from his younger actors.   I particularly love this film, and Samuel L. Jackson is very effective in a strong, sympathetic, yet antagonistic, role.

I followed that up with "Signs", a favorite Shyamalan film with stunning performances, from Mel Gibson to Joaquin Phoenix and Kieran Culkin to Abigail Breslin...wonderful youthful performances making a huge impact in his films.

Both films have superb scores by James Newton Howard.

I’m not caring for Nevada Smith. Too episodic without much substance.
