other stuff

• watched the 1934 screwball comedy my man godfrey the other night, let me be real, carole lombard is NOT good in it, despite what ebert says. the whole movie is a bit meh, even though it has cool politics and william powell is pretty wonderful (note i keep trying to type my main man godfrey)
• also watched always be my maybe, it’s NOT good (but not as bad as i imagine wine country is)
• i hated the book the goldfinch, just saw there is a movie coming out of it — HARD PASS
• even thinking about that book makes me annoyed
• full disclosure: did not read whole thing, read 2/3 and simply could not keep going
• this sweet story about retiring mailman floyd martin got me
