Thanks Heather and thanks for letting Tracy know that I called.


It is now 2 wks and a day without power. So send light, air-conditioning and a big ol' steak! Been a long time since I have had "real food". I have been cooking can goods on sterno. It's like what I imagine army rations are like. Yuck-o!!!!


I was able to go back to work last Friday. Now I can't wait to get to work. (for the A/C and the internet)!!!!!!

I had every intention of treating myself to a night out alone and catch this one. I want to see it so bad. But due to Hurricane Wilma only parts of the city has power as of yet and none of the movie theatres have re-opened yet. I am afraid I may have to catch this one on satellite or DVD. (sigh)

I just saw it today, and greatly enjoyed it!  It's really more of a drama than a dark comedy, but there are some funny moments as well.  I liked this one even more than "Lord of War".

I'm real sorry to have seen this and hope that it's just one opinion and not the tread.


From what I have seen and heard of "Weatherman" it looks like my kind of film and I'm sure that I will enjoy it. I've like the clips I've seen so far. And this is just my opinion as well but I am very anxious to go see it first hand when it comes out in my area.

**: Could be worse
*: But not by much

NEW REVIEWS:

The Weather Man (U.S..)
*1/2
Oct. 20 at Harris Theater for Music and Dance
Skip it: Dave Spritz (Nicolas Cage) is separated from his wife (a terrific Hope Davis), unappreciated by his father (Michael Caine), and finds little pride in his job as a highly-paid Chicago weather man. But his pursuit of professional success and personal satisfaction can't decide if it wants to be a black comedy, a moody drama, or a time-to-get-my-life-in-order, "American Beauty"-style story of self-empowerment.
Catch it if: You want to count how many Chicago locations you can spot. There are tons of downtown and suburban locales you can't miss. Bottom line: A messy midlife crisis drama as unsure of itself as a weather forecast, with an incredibly heavy-handed voiceover from Cage, who sounds like he just woke up.
Bonus: The eerie experience of hearing Caine say "dildo" and "cameltoe."
