Ooh, Black and White?! Yes.... Great stark imagery..... yes.... No wait, .... Shakespeare? ?! Macbeth***? Yes. Very nice.


Stoopid Apple TV. .... But hey, they also have that Tetris**** movie coming out. :-/

* Not a Judgement, at all. Far from it. I mean, Ex Machina was amazing, IMHO.
** I wanted to see "Age of Adeline" but never got around to it. But yeah, A24 has earned my attention, every time, a preview, at least.

*** I immediately was thinking Othello, ... but I guess, I was generally thinking Shakespeare to begin with.

**** Ever since I read about how Tetris made it over to the US, I was thinking, that this needs to be made into a movie, full stop. [[ " Game Over " by David Sheff ]]
A Coen movie? With Denzel? Yes please. Generally love the Coens' takes on things. Don't know about Frances as Lady McB though, I mean, I love her, but she's always Marge to me. But I guess that doesn't rule her out as "out damn spot!" she's just on the other side now...

No idea what A24 is though, sounds like some weird European paper size.

Tetris also intriguing. Non sequitur, [TMI] I think of Tetris every night when I go to bed. Because I sleep with a man, two cats, and a dog. On good nights the cats are not there because, as I'm the last one to bed usually, I have to fit myself in and it's not pretty. I call it Petris. (Okay, I stole that from the Rhymes With Orange comic.)
