My son has bought a movie DVD, he tells me. It's called

I haven't seen it yet, but he recommends it. And he left me a

It's by John F. Nash, Jr.

Meanwhile, I was laughing with my wife at a free weekend satellite
TV offering on Starz called, "America's Sweethearts".

Such a schizophrenic mix of entertainments, but both ringing with a
shimmering honesty of their diverse genres.
Enjoy!
