A bit repetitive, but last night the American Film Institute ran their top ten movies of ten different genres. I didn't always agree with their picks and think they left some mighty good ones off the list, but, it was thought-provoking and always good to bring back memories.
I will write downs the ones I liked and make comments.
Epics
10. The Ten Commandments-- always liked the parting of the Red Sea
8. Saving Private Ryan-- The D-Day scenes alone
6. Titanic-- The sinking. I'm into sunken ships anyway.
4. Gone With the Wind-- I'm a big Civil War buff. The street scene with all those dead and wounded Confederates with the limp flag still gets me.
3. Schindler's List-- One man battling one of the worst things humans have ever done to each other.
#1 Lawrence of Arabia-- Haven't seen it, but definitely on my list of things to see.

Being an account of some things I'm interested in, what I'm doing, and reflections on my past, especially music.
Listen to this man. Seven years of college, you know. Trying to reason with 2020 and, now, 2022.
