See the movie "Insterstellar" if you can, especially in IMAX! It is worthy of "2001: A Space Odyssy".

I saw the movie Tim's Vermeer today at the Kendall Square Cinema. The topic was fascinating and the production excellent. What I found really amazing was Tim's sheer strength of will to get all of that detail in the painting just right.

and the photo it is based on.

I saw Rachel Maddow give a speech in Northampton MA today. She was awesome!

I saw the movie Renoir with Leigh and Chris at the Kendall Square Cinema.
It was a magnificent display of color and sensuality.
Afterward, we ate a fine meal at AREA FOUR.

I watched Zero Dark Thirty last night. It was thrilling and disturbing. Seeing Jennifer Ehle in a big supporting role was great; it's a pity her character was killed off.

I participated in a trivia contest tonight and my team won. My knowledge of US history was a significant factor. The contest was nice distraction from my current familial duties.

I saw the movie Lincoln last night. It is definitely worthy of an Oscar for best picture. Daniel Day-Lewis is superb in the title role.

Merry Christmas.
