Busy weekend and end of week ahead. Work has been busy. I played basketball at the UO Rec Center for the first time since Christmas break in Washington with my bro and Shane. Every part of my body is sore, and I'm ecstatic. Rumor has it we'll be playing Friday night as well. I hope this works out.
So, Friday night basketball didn't work out. My new friend Niels went awol. Just finished The Mutiny on the Bounty (1935, 7.0/10), which finishes a week full of early Best Picture Oscar winners, starting with the first, the silent Wings (1927, 6.0/10) and including The Broadway Melody (1929, 6.2/10). Thus far I've been underwhelmed, though I found Mutiny on the Bounty to be rather entertaining. Apparently Charles Laughton was known for saying that modern actors give you a photograph and real actors give you an oil painting. He fell into the latter grouping indeed.
Now on to Visconti movied, The Damned.
