Thanks. I'm having lunch with her today--maybe we can make plans to see it together. |

'Bajrangi Bhaijaan' has broken India's box office record for the first five days.

You've been talking with Redstateward, again, haven't you? |

Trainwreck does provide the requisite number of laughs but is perhaps overrated. My problem was that I could not develop empathy with the central character.

That's really the big problem with the movie, though I liked her better as the movie went on. Bill Hader made up for a lot, and LeBron James was fun. |

Here's a best of 2015 list skewed towards arthouse, indie and foreign films: http://www.vulture.com/2015/07/best-movies-of-2015-so-far.html
I saw the Iranian film About Elly a year or so ago and wrote something about it here, I believe. It was too limited for my taste.
The docs Amy (Winehouse) and Wolfpack sound potentially good. Maybe Timbuktu.
Hard Day (So. Korea) and Jauja (Viggo Mortensen plays a Danish engineer in late 19th-century Argentina) both sound promising.
The others don't really interest me.
And I'll probably get to the animated Inside Out |

You are immaterial.
Do you read?
(we're trading Dick-isms, from the Elba website, in case anyone wondered about the rapid deterioration in our recent postings.....)
We're trying to decide between Spy and Trainwreck, at the nanoplex. I have to see "Dogwatcher" embedded in Trainwreck, but she's leaning towards Spy. I suspect due to Jason Statham. What she sees in that ill-shaven beady-eyed sawed-off baboon is beyond me. |

Yes, was JK. He's an excellent action/comedy actor. |
