DEAR FRIENDS:

SORRY THAT THIS ISSUE IS A BIT INCOMPLETE AND A BIT LATE AS WELL!!

MOVIES  I SAW THIS WEEK-

1) THE ROOM NEXT DOOR– 2024. Synopsis by Rotten Tomatoes. “Ingrid (Julianne Moore) and Martha (Tilda Swinton) were close friends in their youth, when they worked together at the same magazine. Ingrid went on to become an autofiction novelist while Martha became a war reporter, and they were separated by the circumstances of life.”

1/8/25- Good reviews for this new movie by Pedro Almodovar. I loved the movie- Great acting and important themes. TRDB

2) THE SIX TRIPLE EIGHT– 2024. Synopsis by Rotten Tomatoes. “The Six Triple Eight is inspired by the first and only Women’s Army Corps unit of color to serve overseas in WWII. Despite facing racism and sexism — and grueling working conditions — they were committed to serving their country with honor and distinction. Given an extraordinary mission and united in their determination, these unsung heroes delivered hope and shattered barriers.

1/23/25- Weak reviews by most and I agree. TRDB.
