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.

      Low Duck Hook Driver!

      By GolfLug ·

      Yeah, that's what I am suggesting OP check. If he does not have a grip issue then great. It's not unheard of grip issues causing duck hooks. Anyway I don't have a horse in the race. Good luck to the OP.

      Low Duck Hook Driver!

      By inthehole ·

      I too fought the dastardly low duck hook something awful this year - as you say it is a round killer, absolutely demoralizing.  I've golfed seriously for 14 years and this just crept in this year - CONSISTENTLY, never ever had to deal with it before.   Like you, it only affects my driver, not hybrids/irons.   So I fought it all year and spent alot of time trying everything under the sun to fix it.   At end of season, after an incredible amount of work, I did fix it.   It turned out to be a simple fix - it is a grip issue (for me).    I always set up with my driver with club head lag like the rest of my clubs.   My fix was to set up straight to the ball - NO LAG (no shaft lean).   What this does is slightly rotate the grip in your hands ... automatically, You won't have to intentionally change anything with your grip.   It will feel really weird, but lock in the grip with no shaft lean / clubhead lag & swing normally.   Its pure f'n magic - completely fixed my low short duck hook without any other change in setup or swing, ball position, ball height, etc.  Back to hitting nice high straight balls, even a tad of fade sometimes, which i'm fine with.   Grip still feels really strange & I have to ingrain it in my muscle memory over the winter indoors, but can't argue with the cnosistent results the last 7 or 8 rounds of the season.... absolutely mind blowing what a simple little change can do.

      Now wrap the hand up onto the grip. You've gotta have a pretty extreme grip to have your trail hand in flexion.

      By GolfLug ·

      It is hard to roll your trail palm underneath the grip (and further up in the palm) which puts the wrist in flexion? What am I missing?

      Trail hand wrist in flexion at P1? Same GIF as above. That's tough to do.
