Last night I turned the TV on to see if there were any good movies I could enjoy watching and falling asleep to. I'm very particular about that, not just any type will do. TCM had Arthur, which I have only ever seen once, and that would have filled the bill but it was just ending. Cabaret was next. I'd given it a good watching recently enough that it would not have been interesting, so I flipped to the next channel which was finishing up Chinatown and The Two Jakes was to follow. Perfect. I have more of an interest in Jakes than many do and I'm due for properly watching it again, but this would do. I did eventually drop off, but I was loving some of the noirish visuals and dialogue and voiceovers. It doesn't hold a candle to Chinatown, but I'm glad it exists.
