It's the high-speed Internet that's expensive.
Tell me about it. My Internet is through Sonic, which is the fastest I can get without getting it via Comcast, and it's still $70/month for only 8Mbps max.
Well, look at you. All dressed up in big sister's clothes.

After dithering a bit, I signed up for Criterion Channel earlier today -- paid for the whole year in advance.
I celebrated my better-than-expected tax-number-crunching results by biting that bullet.
This post brought to you by the fact that I have about a dozen movies checked out the library right now but nothing I want watch.

So I found out when I almost blinded Dana on my very first Buffista post.
"My eyes!" she cried out.

I feel this.
I started Raging Bull. stopped after 10 min. I started Airport. stopped after about 12 min. I started The Emigrants. stopped after about 20 min.
I have from the Library: An Unmarried Woman, Up in the Air, and Sideways.

Barring one scene, I like Sideways quite a bit. But I have a certain fondness for Solvang in particular (and wine in general) so that may play a role. I remember liking Up in the Air when I saw it in theaters, but I wouldn't think it has aged well.

Ann, that's a ferret.
I saw Airport a number of years ago. I didn't think it was great moviemaking, but I enjoyed it. Owes more to older movies (maybe '50s soap opera types like Imitation of Life, Peyton Place) than to anything that was New when it was made.

Big multi-plot, cast of thousands disaster movies were all the rage back then. Several of them were based on books. I enjoyed seeing how the different characters would intersect.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I wish I could find a complete uncut version of Goliath Awaits.
