Overview
My thoughtsI thought I had seen every film with Clint Eastwood in a starring role (i e from A Fistful of Dollars) except Pink Cadillac and his latest, Trouble with the Curve. I had such a vivid image of Clint in a car with Jeff Bridges that I was sure I had seen it back in the 70's, even though I didn't remember much about it. Turns out I must have been mistaken. I probably only saw the trailer. Seeing it now I feel that there are several scenes in it that I would surely recognize if I had seen them before. Well, not the first time this has happened to me.

Anyway, even though the ending is a bit of a downer, I enjoyed the film very much. This was Michael Cimino's first film as director, followed by the much acclaimed Deer Hunter, and the not so much acclaimed Heavens GatePlan 9 From Outer Spacetoo long if you want to get a copy.

My Thoughts:

We watched this one last night. Before then I never even knew of this version of the film. I must say I enjoyed it quite a bit. The film looked great and the cast did a really good job. The story kept my interest with ease. This is one I would recommend seeing.

Star Trek
3.11 Wink of an Eye
Writer: Arthur Heinemann (Screenwriter), Lee Cronin (Original Material By), Gene Roddenberry (Original Characters By)
Director: Jud Taylor

An episode about some time-accelerated aliens who try to take over the Enterprise. A nice episode, but nothing really special.
