    I don't think the movies are related, just both actors in another movie together.

    That is what I thought too. I questioned a few others when leaving the theater and no one responded positively.

    Thanks for the review. I will probably wait until I can see it for free.

    A lot of the pbs masterpiece theater features don’t appeal to me, but I’m several episodes into Vienna Blood and have been enjoying it.

    And WTF it is only 6 episodes. Really folks, work harder and longer!!!!! I need more of this series!

    I greatly appreciate that they are filming in important locations and they take great pride in that. They filmed a funeral in St. Paul’s Cathedral in London. They had the closing episode at Inverary Castle, which I immediately recognized as Inverary Castle in Scotland.

    but I would trade more episodes for less glamorous locations. Sadly, they are not asking me about those choices
    We watched the first 4 episodes yesterday and will get to the last 2 episodes tonight. I think I told you in the last discussion of this series that I've had a major crush on Keri Russell since I first noticed her in The Americans nearly 10 years ago. She just gets better with age, WooHoo!

    She is lovely and seems like a fairly normal person in real life from the bits I have read.

    okay----this is coming up the 15th: Tyson vs Paul. Nooooo, not Tyson Chickkin' vs Mrs Pauls fish filets. Nope. Anyway, it's controversial, but can we go ahead and place some bets on the outcome? So, how manya you kids'r gonna sit-n-watch, steada them Night Time Soaps or quasi-historical docudramas you like so much?

    I really enjoyed the recent movie, Jules, from the local free library platform. It’s about an alien craft that crashes in an old man’s back yard. Mostly comedy with jane Curtain and other famous people. The alien keeps drawing cat pictures and the old man eventually figures out the alien needs 7 dead cats to fix his space ship, which they scrounge from road kills. I even like the trailer. Heartwarming and not quite the slapstick it might sound like.

    Am going to try Anatomy of Lies on Peacock, about a Greys Anatomy writer who seems to have had Munchausen syndrome.

    I read about her. Pretty crazy.

    There’s another one about a cancer hoax coming out in 2025 about Amanda, a churchgoing lady who grifted hundreds of thousands of dollars over a few years from her church and community. I heard a multi part podcast about her and it was interesting enough that I’ll watch a video version.
