A request has been made for a non-knitting Enthusiast post (a request from a non-knitter, obviously; the guild of the pointy sticks can never, ever have enough knitting posts). And so grateful am I to have any readers at all, let alone ones with desires in re the blog, that I am cheerfully obliging! Here's what On Demand has brought to my life lately:
"The Interpreter": Sean Penn and Nicole Kidman in a draggy and predictable thriller.
"God Said Ha!": Early nineties Julia Sweeney one-woman-show about her brother dying of cancer right after her own divorce and diagnosis of cancer. Surprisingly funny!
"Postcards from the Edge": Meryl Streep playing Carrie Fisher post-rehab. Weird. Not terrible.
"28 Days": Sandra Bullock in rehab. Shut up! I love this movie.
"Bernard and Doris": Absolutley wonderful movie about how attractive money is, and how two addicts can be equally destructive and supportive of one another. Love the yummy Ralph Fiennes, even if we have learned he's a little...free...with the ladies.
All these rehab stories led to Netflixing HBO's four-disc special on addiction, in all of its aspects. I recommend it, though it is tough to watch people struggle so desperately and fail so often.
OK, Naunihal?
