New Releases: Catch-Up Reviews

Started by Jandy · 1 year ago

I’m going to stop doing the monthly recap posts and instead try to write reviews/reactions more consistently throughout the month.

    Nevin loves, LOVES Young Indiana Jones--which he discovered at the library And it can be educational. I discovered that Catherine Zeta Jones had one of her earliest gigs on one of those episodes.

    I did, but I haven't posted about it yet. I'm still in internet access limbo - the people I'm staying with have internet, but I can't connect my computer to it. Bah. Anyway, re: Kwaidan. I'll need a rewatch, since it didn't immediately turn me onto Japanese cinema, or even itself, on first viewing. In its defense, however, I watched it while under packing and moving stress, so I'm not faulting it for my inability to love it. Of the stories, the one with the blind monk was my favorite, I think.
