  The Redeem Team 2022

  ★★★★ Watched 23 Oct 2022

  I’d have to say it’s not The Last Dance, but I think any basketball fanatic such as myself would thoroughly enjoy this program from Netflix, especially given the now-poignant emphasis placed on Kobe Bryant’s influence on the team. As a stats head, I must point out that it was in fact Dwayne Wade who led the team in scoring, while shooting a blistering 67% from the field, which you wouldn’t know from the spotlight shined on LeBron and Kobe.

  The Graduate 1967

  ★★★★½ Watched 29 Jun 2021

  A funny and cringey movie that resonated especially well with me as a recent college graduate. Features a good soundtrack from Simon & Garfunkel. It was a very different role for Dustin Hoffman than I had seen him do previously. Several scenes with memorable cinematography.

  Aliens 1986

  ★★★★★ Watched 12 Jan 2021

  I couldn’t imagine that the sequel would be better than the original, but it is. Sigourney Weaver is just as great, but more central to the story.  Overall suspenseful, hard-hitting, scary. Great cast, great soundtrack, and great direction.
