The Succot movie list cheats a bit.

About "The Prince of Egypt," it addresses the tough issue head-on:

"You might be thinking, isn’t this a Passover story? You’d be right. However, while the events detailed in the story predate the Torah itself, this is still an important movie about Jewish identity, and celebrating the freedom that Judaism holds so dear. "

So maybe any Jewish-themed movie can be a Succot movie.

The ending of the movie was quite good. Made up for a lackluster half hour.

Got new thank-you notes in the mail today. Unlike my remaining notes cards, these do not have dead fish on them.

John G, is everything going smoothly with being an executor?  Has it been a lot of work?

I wonder if "I Married an Angel" could have a revisal as "I Married a Zombie."

No, it hasn't been too much work. It's more of a waiting game. But there's no probate. Everything was in the trust. I had to stop her German pension and file for the one-time Social Security survivor benefit. Lots of thank-you notes to write. A few more forms.

The script for Zombie isn't great. The acting is decidedly B grade. But the atmosphere and cinematography are excellent.
