Castles in the Sky

Eleanor and I just took a walk to Mollusk. In a 2-0 vote we decided to buy the new Taylor Steele movie, Castles in the Sky. The only bummer is that now we have to wait until Caddie is freed from jury duty before we can watch it. I loved Sipping Jetstreams, and have high hopes for this latest.

The Present

Caddie has been down-for-the-count ever since she shot her short film two weeks ago. One week of the flu led to pneumonia, and that’s pretty much that for at least another week. As a result we’ve been watching a lot of TV, and generally not doing much.

Some unexpected upside happened Saturday night. I was channel surfing and saw that Thomas Campbell’s The Present was on. I missed the beginning. What I did see made me think this might be my favorite Campbell film yet. Quirky, of course, but it seems like maybe he toned down the quirk. This is a good thing. I love his style, but sometimes the odd Conquistador tangents detract from the experience. Instead of Conquistadors, The Present has Dan Malloy surfing in a coffin. Just awesome.
