The soundtrack is quite mesmerizing, isn't it? Some of the people she talked to on the streets from the truck - not actors, had no idea they were shooting a movie.

Just reading a review that pointed out that the music playing during all of her "harvests" is the same that plays at the end with the logger.

The Grandmaster Saw this earlier in the year, but it's available on iTunes now and will watch it again tonight. This movie defies categorization. It looks like an action movie, but it's more an

The Imitation Game - the birdie putt lips out and a tap in for par.

Incredible story.  Good acting.  Close to being really good.

I watched Under The Skin as well. I'd give it a par. I liked it, and the unanswered stuff ( motorcycle guy, elephant boy surviving) didn't bother me too much. Very dark, very vague. The bit with the two guys in the water? creeped me out a little.

TCM showed Guess Who's Coming To Dinner last night so we watched it again. Eagle.

One of the best movies of all time, and could have been made in ANY era and still been entirely relevant (with a slight tweak to the dinner guests, obviously ;))

Regarding the above scene, from IMDB:

In the scene near the end where Spencer Tracy gives his memorable soliloquy, Katharine Hepburn can be seen crying in the background. This was not acting: she knew how gravely ill her longtime lover was and was moved by his remarks about how true love endures through the years.

Spencer Tracy died 17 days after filming was completed.

Katharine Hepburn never saw the completed movie. She said the memories of Tracy were too painful .

Another great scene:

Thanks for the recommendation.  I like Cumberbatch. I think he is a terrific actor.

Indecorous. Decorous. :-)

I liked the scenes w/him and the Commander smashing heads. Plus I geeked out seeing the machine at work and the code breaking scenes.

Mark Strong always good playing a spook.

Lucy - Started off as a birdie putt heading right for the cup.  Looked like it would certainly go in.  Then at the last second, it veered left and lipped out.  Scarlett and Morgan were great, but the ending was weird.

ahh yes.. that ending was very strange wasn't it?  I mean who the hell thought that ending up, and then people reviewed it and said.. yeah, that looks like a good ending?

don't want to give anything away, but I think they could have also spent some time exploring her powers more, even though she was on a time limit (which was a stupid constraint in my mind)

Frank.

Michael Fassbender, Maggie Gyllenhal, the kid from About Time. Probably not everyone's cup of tea, very eclectic, but I enjoyed the goofiness, humor, music and seeing the creative (or not) process at work.

Birdie. It's on Netflix Instant (US).

So @nevets88 , I watched both Coherence and The One I Love, both were birdies. Loved Coherence, the weirdness of the situation was way nerve wracking, and then the wife loved The One I Love, I did too, the ending was great.

      Can Somebody Explain to Me Why Lie Angle Balanced Putters Are Important?

      By ChetlovesMer ·

      I visited the PGA Superstore again today. Once again I messed around with the LAB putters. There was another customer there and this guy was totally sold on them. He walked away with one. Anyhow, this guy told me all about them. ... Pretty much stuff that we've already covered in this thread. I did mention to him that I wasn't impressed with the feel. To which he told me you have to try one with the upgraded shaft. So, I did. I have to say the feel was better with the upgraded shaft. Still not the best feeling putter out there, but clearly better than the standard shaft. The feel is also improved (in my opinion) by going with a more traditional grip instead of the forward leaning one. They also had one of the DF3's in blue. Which of course would be my favorite. The DF3 in blue with the upgraded shaft started to scratch the 600 dollar mark.  Once again, I came away thinking that Tour Edge is the way to go. They actually had a face balanced model for $99.99. I have to say it "felt" to my hands much better. Every time I go and test LAB putters I come away thinking more people should buy the Tour Edge putters. Just one man's opinion. BTW - I also tried the Odyssey face-balanced putter. It was okay.  Anyway, my experimenting with the LAB putters is probably over. Not sure when I'll replace my current gamer, but when I do, I don't think it will be with a LAB putter even though it does come in blue. 😜
