---I watched a few films, but mainly was catching up on series TV. Watched a lot of NCIS reruns on the USA channel. Very good cast and interesting characters. Also, a few episodes of loopy Monk. Very funny at times. And, of course, Law & Order and all its' spin offs. Lots of talent on all these shows.
The few films I watched:
Phenomenon (1996) John Travolta and Kyra Sedgwick. A small town guy gets a bolt from the blue and seems to be able to learn & master any number of subjects. Enjoyable paranormal story. 8/10 http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0117333/
The Queen (2007) Helen Mirren IS Queen Elizabeth II. Michael Sheen and Helen McCrory, as Tony and Cherie Blair, are also standouts. The story concentrates on the days just preceding and the day of Princess Diana's death and what the Royals did and didn't do. 9/10 http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0436697/
Failure To Launch (2006) Sarah Jessica Parker & Matthew McConaughey. Such a lame story to waste the leads in, let alone Kathy Bates. Zooey Deschanel steals every scene she is in and if the story was about her character, we might have something worth watching. 6/10 http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0427229/
Another rather cold, damp week predicted, with just one day with full sunshine and warm enough to finish getting the garden tools cleaned and back in the garage; and do some final cleanup of frosted plants. Then it is on to getting the holiday decorations out and up before it gets too cold to bother. So the fire and some movies, etc. on the agenda.
