The Man Who Invented Christmas
Lisa and the kids saw this in the theater last year but I missed out - and boy do I regret it. This was a joyous, charming movie that made me smile from beginning to end. Well done!

Jigsaw
I'm no fan of the Saw movies, which I view as torture porn. Jigsaw was better than most in the series, in that it wasn't completely awful.
Operation Finale
A film about the hunt for Eichmann after the war. It was a good solid movie but lacked a real sense of urgency. Worth a watch all the same.

A Sweet Gift from Poland
YaYas friend in Poland surprised her with a package that included oplatki, Polish candy, a CD of Polish carols, and this wonderful flag. #Polska #Poland

Racoon Valley
A deaf woman cannot hear the evacuation order that empties her small town after a plane crash poisons the areas water, leaving her alone to face the creatures it spawns. Atmospheric and slow, it isn't for everyone, but I liked it.
George HW Bush
RIP George Herbert Walker Bush. He was the first person I ever cast a ballot for, and the man whose integrity and steadfastness converted this reluctant Democrat into a loyal Republican. You served this nation well sir; sleep well. #41

Cam
This Netflix original is a film about an online adult-content worker - a "Camgirl" - who finds her account hacked by a lookalike that begins to take over her life. It is smart, inventive, and at times downright creepy. It's not perfect but it's well worth a watch. (sexual content, adults only)

Captain MooMoo Goes to the Vet
Took the new cat to the vet today. Captain MooMoo is down to 17 pounds(!) from 19.3# at the pound, and despite what the Humane Society told us, he's completely declawed. 🙀😿

Roy Clark
RIP to the underrated guitarist. I remember him well from Hee Haw and a guest appearance on The Odd Couple.
