Progressive Series on DVD .. and two excellent film reviews ...
I have gotten very in to Lost by watching Season 1 on DVD .... And since Alias had its series Finale tonight, against 24's season finale .. I was curious what people thought of watching these complicated shows that make more sense when you see the entire program, not just bits and pieces ...
Its funny, I watched Lost briefly with my wife during the premiere and didn't get into it ... It has been an absolute joy however to watch on DVD ....
I also saw two very good movies this week ...
One was Match Point **** .... Woody Allen's best movie in many years .. possibly since Crimes and Misdeamors or Even Zelig and The Purple Rose of Cairo .. The acting was great, the script very interesting .. Johnathan Rhys-Meyers was much better then I thought he could be, Emily Mortimer was very cute and quite adorable .. and Scarlett Johnansen is absolutely gorgeous ... Very good film .. Highly recommended ...
What I also liked about "Match Point" is that it didn't star Woody Allen, or even really have a pseudo-Woody (like Branagh in Celebrity .. or the DREADFUL performance by Jason Biggs in the Horrendous Anything Else 1/2*) .. .Very interesting surprising movie .. Catch it when you can ...
I also saw the spellbinding and powerful movie "City of God" **** ... This movie is beautiful, brilliant and heartbreaking ... Really awesome cinematography and very good acting ... Although I thin this would be a hard film to see multiple times ... I would love to see more by this Brazilian director ....
Also looking forward to Rites of Spring this Wednesday-Monday in the Berkshires .. Can't believe I will be there in 36 hours
)) .... Vacuumland is over, and the next challenge awaits ...
blessed be ...

p.s. Read my poem and co-read a children's story "Toot and Puddle" at Church on Sunday as part of a service I helped create ... I had people actually clapping at the end of the children's story .. That was an absolute blast!
