.... I was scrolling for filler time, and stumbled upon the HBO documentary re the Bee Gee's.
Never a fan, as I was always a classic rock type. Yet, the documentary was actually very well done, My wife and I kept saying, "I never knew that ..."
The segment re how Saturday Night Fever came to be was particularly interesting.
We all loved it. Stiches in some thoughtful perspectives.
Link: Definitely worth watching

Wild Thing in Major Leaguer.
Referring to the transition scene when the film transitions from juvenile detention to adulthood, as we see the adult version of Tommy Marconi and John Reilly (as Westies) walking in Hell’s Kitchen towards their local bar where they will encounter Kevin Bacon (their abuser).
Poetry.

A week earlier, at a club called Pointe East in a south burb of Chicago, those same two radio shock jocks ran a trial run of Disco Demolition. I was there too. The club had to be shut down halfway through the event. Mayhem. Cook County PD and law enforcement from across the border in Indiana came with riot helmets and dogs. It was jam packed to the rafters with hundreds more outside who couldn't get in. LOL. They should have known by the Pointe East experience what might happen at White Sox Park. And now, I have disco on my ipod living in peace with Led Zep, Floyd, and my 1960s oldies.

killer’s crypto’s. Hadn’t seen it before. Enjoyed it even though long and at times slow paced. Good study of obsession and what it does to all of us.
Can’t see many of our current generation attached to action and slasher movies being able to make it through.
Fascinating drama about how the FBI pioneered profiling of criminals. Right down to coining the term “Serial Killer.”
