Front-Ranger:
I've already read the profile of Jennifer Lawrence and the article about monsters. I think the only movie I've seen of hers was "Don't Look Up" which wasn't mentioned. Of course, I've seen "Silver Linings Playbook" but I don't remember much about that.

You haven't seen Winter's Bone? First thing I saw her in. I highly recommend it!





Also American Hustle! One of my all-time favorite movies. (I've seen it three times, the number of times I've watched most of my favorite movies, excluding the one I watched 22 times.)






Jeff Wrangler:
I haven't thought of "American Hustle" in a very long time. I've never seen it but I remembering wanting to.

I've been away from home for about a week and a half now, so I guess I'm two issues behind again.  :-\

I highly recommend it! 92% on Rotten Tomatoes. It's streaming in a bunch of places. i've heard the director, David O. Russell, is an asshole, but then I like Chinatown, too. Rewatched that a couple of years ago.

I still haven't gotten the latest. I used to get it on Tuesdays, then Wednesdays. Now it must be Fridays or Saturdays because it wasn't there today (I don't check my mail every day).


Jeff Wrangler:
I'm slogging my way through the Nov. 3 article on data centers. I wouldn't ordinarily read it, and I might give up and not finish it, but I've started reading it because a data center is currently being built in the county where I grew up, and others are in the planning stage, and there are concerns about how much water data centers use and also how much electricity.
