I haven’t watched this since I saw it in the theater, but do I remember correctly that a boom mike was in the shot multiple times?

One night i would like to take her out to a real nice (one of higher end) restaurant. Her knees are not that great so any recommendations appreciated.

Not high-high end, but I really like Giada’s in The Cromwell.

It's a great book to read

This was the first Stephen King novel I read, after Night Shift short story collection. I was 12 yr old - probably not age appropriate…

I agree. There is an iPad WSJ Print app that at least is structured like the paper, but it’s harder to read.

All Quiet on the Western Front (1930)
The Best Years of Our Lives (1946) - actually a postwar movie
Paths of Glory (1957)

None have intense battle scenes, compared to more recent movies, but all are amazing and powerful films. I watched They Shall Not Grow Old again on a flight last week. It’s great too.
