Wiseguy: Living and Dying in 4/4 Time (1989)
This final episode of "Dead Dog Records" made me cry. Amended
This is the last episode of the "Dead Dog" arc of Wiseguy. It is so sad that it is not on Amazon Prime with the rest of Wiseguy so that everyone can see it. Tim Curry's performance as Winston Newquay is one of the best of his career. Those of us who managed to tape Wiseguy in the old days of VCR still have easy - though deteriorating - access to it. The import for for Wiseguy that sends you to Amazon.ca from this episode does not contain the "Dead Dog Records" arc. So sad :-(
A Simple Favor (2018)
Thoroughly enjoyable
I walked out of the theatre in a great mood. The acting was great - the interaction between the two leads was perfect. There was even one really good jump scare. laughed and laughed throughout the entire movie. The plot twists kept moving along. Early on, I thought that I knew what was going on. While I was right about the overall "plot", its execution and the twists reminded me that there are writers who can put together an engaging film with new ideas.
Hadn't read the book, so the movie had to stand or fall on its own and it did.
