Aka Monday 12th August 2019
Today I brought and watched ‘The Sisters Brothers’, a story
about gunfighters, the Gold Rush, family ties and looking for a purpose beyond the
one circumstance dictates to us. Or at least that is my read. ‘The Sisters Brothers’
has a great cast and looks beautiful, but it feels a tad slight, almost like
there isn’t a third act that ends the story, rather it just stops instead of
concluding, even though it feels like there is more story, although one could argue
that that is true to life. That life doesn’t conform to the three-act structure.
…and I did today’s
G2 Crossword:
…which got the week off to an average start, nothing
special, but not bad either. I had to cheat on a fifth of the clues (five out
of 25). There was a sight mistake in going for ‘lighting storm’ instead of
‘electric storm’ and not remembering about crooners, but the other three just
evaded being worked out by the little grey cells.
