Honorable Mention - Road to Perdition

The other night I watched Grosse Point Blank. It fed several cravings in one serving:

• I’ve had daydreams recently of being a radio dj and Minnie Driver’s Debi Newberry has excellent taste. Incredible taste in music.
• My unshakable man-crush on John Cusack
• Joe Strummer did the music - I wish it was all available and I’ve listened to a lot of The Clash and his work with The Mescaleros. Only “War Cry” was on the More soundtrack.
• A bit of high school nostalgia brought on by footage from my high school’s senior send-off assembly my senior year and the fact that my twenty year reunion is next year.
• (Toots & The Maytals were name dropped by Newberry)

Posting this so derhay knows about it …

Again, I am in your debt. Gnarly. Thank you.

I’m an awful friend, I know, but I intended to remind you that tomorrow (May 28th) is the graduation day in Dazed and Confused.

Hey, IMDb, here’s one for you. Where have I seen Francis Capra, who plays Eli “Weevil” Navarro on Veronica Mars?

Answer: He was Young Bob in SLC Punk.

Response:

Really, IMDb? Well, how about that…

…I saw Source Code, this afternoon, and loved it. Listened to Bowie’s Low with Miri, afterwards. And earlier, Moon arrived via Netflix. Moon was a favorite of 2009) I just learned that Duncan Jones (director of both films) is none other than Duncan Zowie Hayward Jones, David Jones’ son. A moment of zen.
