  • Alternative title is “ISRA 88”. Just watched it. It’s interesting, but a little clunky. Maybe not as bad as the 3.6/10, but I feel it misses the mark. They didn’t make the alternate realities portion of the story as compelling (or real) as they could’ve. It could be a stage play with how low-tech the sets/environment are, but I can overlook that, so nbd. Just didn’t have enough oomph. ;)

    Oh, and Adrienne Barbeau is in it!




  • Many years ago I had an orthopoedic surgeon that was always late. 30-40 minutes ofttimes. Yes, it was an inconvenience, but first appointment with him this happened, I was irritated about it until he got in the room. He was contrite and apologetic and had incredibly good bedside manners. He spoke to you and not dismissively down as many docs can. He listened completely to what I had to say and welcomed questions. All of this ended up taking much longer than a normal get in/out physician. Now I understood why and accepted his tardiness as I wanted that extra care he so readily dispensed. Great doctor, but now long retired.
