I've been watching MANHUNT season 2, starring Martin Clunes, based on a true story. S1 was excellent and S2 is very good, too. I'm watching on Acorn TV. It may be available elsewhere also.

We are Martin Clunes fans but haven't gotten around to watching MANHUNT.

Just like all the other HHWs here, I have just watched THE BAT.

Don't try to deny it. You all have watched it this week, and are all in on this. I know it.

I don't know if I have ever seen THE BAT, depends if Keith had me watch years ago.  It isn't something I would have watched on my own.

Back from a nice neighborhood Italian joint. I miss these in San Antonio. We just don’t have them.

There was a group of residents in the "party room" watching a movie, which appeared to be Young Frankenstein.

Of course, if you get the Hallmark Channel, it's already Christmas.

In Sarasota County, Fla.? It’s been too long since I lived here. My favorite place has gone out of business. Hillary and I commiserated about its loss.

And now, for extra credit, I have also watched The Bat Whispers, in 1930-style 65mm widescreen. Very interesting.

I meant to thank John G for the Stephane Grappelli/Django Reinhart clip. I've been a Stephane Grappelli fan for ages, but had never seen the clip or even photos of him when he wa young.

Many years ago a colleague and I were doing work at the Kennedy Space Center and found a little mom-and-pop Italian restaurant in Cocoa Beach. The food was very good and it was so homey -- a nice change from typical hotels and restaurants while traveling. We ate there many nights.
