I thought it was really good even though I didn’t understand all of it. There’s a reason why I got C’s in my college finance classes!

I hope to see Room this weekend. I loved the book – I hope the movie lives up to it.

I am intrigued by Joy though, if only because I do love JLaw. I finally got around to seeing The Martian. It still is not as good as the book – I was irked by some of the changes they made – but it was a pretty decent movie.

Oh thanks for the feedback Diane. So glad to hear you shared some of my reactions to these films. I also loved Spotlight. But I haven’t seen Concussion or Joy yet. Concussion seems a must for sure. I admit to being a football fan but I know it’s brutal on the players. sigh.

We also saw : Concussion and Spotlight which were excellent and Joy, which was okay IMO.

Oh JoAnn if you’d seen the Big Short – I could’ve conferred with you on it. What did your husband think? Oh I’m listening to the audio too of The Paying Guests, loving the narration. A friend told me to get it.

Yeah Suzanne, the Revenant was harsh! But I think you’d like Brooklyn — it’s a good film.

I will stop by your site Carmen. Good to know about Pawn Sacrifice and I’m also curious about the Compton film. Both seem like good rentals.

Yeah Naomi I hope you get to see Room! The Big Short is quite surprising; who would have guessed I’d have liked it either?!

Hi Laurel: I liked Carol too, just didn’t love it. That Room movie was powerful! I hope it gets to you. The Big Short is pretty good too.

Ha the Guitar Guy, yeah that was funny. Yeah the biker women were pretty good. I guess I still missed the Mel days. That first Mad Max in ’79 was haunting.
