Hello, everyone!
  Any doubts about my qualifications should be extinguished in a very few sentences.
In my loooong lifetime, I have seen many films.  LA GRANDE ILLUSION (France),
SEVEN SAMURAI (Japan),  VIRGIN SPRING (Sweden),  CASABLANCA (U.S.A.),
LA STRADA (Italy)... you get the picture (pun intended).
   Years ago, I wrote for a periodical which covered 60,000 readers.  It was titled
EYE ON ENTERTAINMENT, and it covered everything from Films,  Plays, and
even a good college football game or two.
   So, here we go:  RESURRECTION.  Last year, I saw two medium-low budget films
that I personally loved:   ROBOT AND FRANK (with Frank Langella) and   END OF
WATCH (with Jake Gyllenhall).s
    The former concerned a curmudgeon who is given a robot to take care of him (He
lives in an isolated forest home).  Julianne Moore is the local librarian who realizes
that Langella has touches of Alzheimer's.
    The latter is one of the best cop films in years.  A few cop friends of mine saw it,
applauded in the first few minutes and wept at the end.   Me, too.  It was cool.
     This year, we have seen several Big Budget films.  The best:  STAR TREK  and
IRON MAN III.
     The worst...  I'll cause a few naysayers  to squeal...   GATSBY  and  MAN OF STEEL.
Tomorrow, I'll tell you way.  More later.
