Pass it on

Frankenstein

49Watch it awake.

An older child can watch, and the crime is a maker who will not be a father.

The review

Don't hand this to a small child. A student makes a man out of other men's parts and will not be a father to him. Boris Karloff is the creature. He wants a life and meets fire. The maker abandons what he made. That refusal sat heavier with me than the scare. The lifetime figure includes later runs, and the year's first rental was smaller. City Lights and Trader Horn are also named. I won't invent one winner.

An older child can watch if you stay. He meets a child by the water. I'm not describing what follows. The creature wanted a life, and the man who built him would not give him one. If you talk after, talk about that. Leave the water alone. Fire is not a stand-in for the father he never got.

Journal

Keep Frankenstein in the record.

No house has filed a sentence for this yet.

Live Historic number 49. Yours can differ.

The glance

Piety and Temperance and Stewardship are the thin ones.

Can conscience actually stop someone, or is reverence only in the shot so it can be mocked?

This phone is set for a grown person, just me. Change the ages.

Consider this

The Endless

61 instead of 49

The Endless is still a horror film, and it scores 61 instead of 49. What you gain is stewardship: What he will not hand his brother is a beautiful trap.

The eight

Pass it on

American Sniper

49Watch it awake.

The skill is not the same thing as the war. Adults. The wife is the witness. Watch awake.

The review

A shepherd of men, in his own mind, looks through a scope and has to decide what a child in the street is holding. Those seconds are the serious part. The film is often more comfortable on the roof than in the kitchen, and the people on the other end of the shot are rarely given a kitchen at all.

Adults. Do not put it on as a recruitment poster or as a debunking. If you watch it, stay for the grocery store, where a man who was decisive cannot be. Ask what a country owes the person it trained to do this, and what it owes the rooms it never filmed.
