A History of Violence! Something based off a comic book! It's a drama of a small town husband and father (Viggo Mortensen) whose small town act of heroism, saving the patrons of his diner by killing a pair of criminal psychopaths and reveals his own repressed past as a brutal criminal. Apparently it's one of the critics top choices so that means I must see it. I'm kidding about that last part, but I still want to watch it anyway.
Good Night, and Good Luck: Nominated for six Oscars, including Best Picture. That's the name of the whole movie, right there. Not just Good Night, and Good Luck. Anyway, I'm curious about this one, filmed in black and white about 1950's newscaster Edward R. Murrow and something political or something. Worth a shot.
The Year of the Yao? A documentary or something? I try to give documentaries a shot, but on this one, who cares?
A lot of television stuff was released on DVD too. The Simple Life 3, thank god that's over with. I Dream of Jeannie, I didn't really watch this (re-runs), but I won't give it crap. I'm sure it was a fine show. MacGyver(s5), Colombo (s4), and Murder She Wrote(s3) wraps up this little installment.
