- seeking direction in Truth, Goodness and Beauty

August 2004

This has been a very quiet month - in terms of blog out-put. I was pretty distracted by a health scare - which I will post about in September.

Summer Flies By     posted:   8-04-04

My time - divided between repairs to my home and long hours at work - flees from me; summer is passing me by.

I really got caught up in my blog last month. I'm hoping to go a little light this month.

I was able to watch On The Waterfront last month on Turner Classic Movies - in digital. I can't remember how long it had been since I'd seen this masterpiece; maybe 15 or more years. I was afraid this old black and white would not live up to my memory of it. Well, I was not disappointed. Brando was magic.

a Favorite Film

shallwe (68K)

If you are lucky enough to locate a copy - watch the original 137 minute version with english language subtitles.

This delightful and insightful Japanese film was written and directed by Masayuki Suo. Released 1996. Not to be confused with the "American" remake - completed in 2004.
