[Vision2020] Say What?

Thu Oct 24 10:09:43 PDT 2013

Hi Daniel,

I just watched another French movie on Netflix last night: "The Women on
the 6th Floor" and before that "The Well Digger's Daughter."  Just two in a
line of the best movies ever made.  I gave them both 5 stars on the Netflix
rating system. No violence, no car chases, no special effects--just plain
cinematic art at the highest level.  I also remembered the trilogy starting
with Manon (?) at the Well (?).  Absolutely delicious cinematically.

In between those two movies was "Arbitrage" with Richard Gere and Susan
Sarandon.  I chose it because of the actors, but what an atrocious movie!

I also just want to add that were it not for the French, we would not have
beaten the British in the Rev. War.  We owe them big time.

Nick
