"Lone Survivor" a review by Alan Farrell
Directed by: Peter Berg, who also wrote the scenario, “based”evidently on the book of the same name (sorta) written by the SEAL who survived this action, Marcus Luttrell (he had a ghost… actually, twenty-some ghosts if you count his buddies lost in the fight and whose memory hangs over the th...
Saw that review... NYT maybe. Dunno. Martyrs, maybe, those guys, though I prefer as I said scapegoats. Wonder what would have been said if they'd snuffed the goatherds, captured Shah, made it back to FOB. We'd have a Breaker Morant on our hands, suspect. Anyhow... all best for Year of Horse. AFF

"Citizen Cane. Senescent Kane (Urf! Urf!)" by Alan Farrell
(Urf! Urf!) In proto-societies, I understand, it is tradition to leave the old to wander off into the forest to expire when they can no longer hold up their end of the log. Perhaps even give them a little shove when they get to drooling and gumming and carrying on about the prom and their fi...

Dunno as I disagree with. Was one of those kids (once, though maybe not so brave), kinda had my suspicions. Onliest consolation was the good company I was in. All us young imbeciles wanted so badly to believe. Anyhow. Best for New Year, maybe the one
we wake up. AFF
"Zero Dark Thirty" a review by Alan Farrell
Zero Dark Thirty. Directed by: Katherine Bigelow. Written by: Mark Boal (who?). Starring: Jessica Chastain... and that's about it. Anybody recognize these guys: Joseph Bradley, Edgar Ramirez, Mark Strong, Chris Pratt, Callan Mulvey? Anybody guess who these guys play: Tushar Mehra, Reda Kate...
Childish, alas, what we do best. And why world love our Levis and Twinkies (or used to) and hate us. Zautres les Amerlos, zetes infiniment aimables mais casse-tout et cons comme bonjour, as they told me when I was a kid in France: Youre loveablebut
butterfingered and dumb as dirt. Okay by me for epitaph. AFF

Nit well-picked. Also one of the bad guys in The Guard. Agree hes good and kinda wasted here. Always astound me how easily Brits do Gringo accent, yet does not seem to work other direction. Best, AFF

"Trouble with the Curve." a review by Alan Farrell
Trouble with the Curve. Directed by: For some reason Oscar (Tm)-winning director Eastwood dropped this one in the lap of Robert Lorenz (too much pressure?), primarily a producer (whatever it is they do) on Clint's flicks like Million-dollar, Iwo Jima, Flags of Our Fathers, but if was for a ...
