The Longest Day (1962) ★★★★
Essential WWII viewing, even with the pragmatics of 1962 filmmaking. (Like these old guys making believe they’re American paratroopers.)

Galaxy of Terror (1981) ★★
Almost bad enough to be good. Full of flashy visual effects instead of plot or character.

Joan of Arc (1948) ★★★½
Captures some of the essence of Joan & her impact, if not the true history & life. The film seems to try to rise above typical sword & swashbuckling of its time, but is still encumbered by mid-twentieth-century conventions & moralizing. I found it inspiring nonetheless.

Salt & Pepper (1968) ★★½
Rat Pack stars Sammy Davis Jr. & Peter Lawford attempt to ride the mid-60s wave of spy movies with this awkwardly directed entry (by Richard Donner no less). Hews closer to Benny Hill than James Bond, or even Matt Helm.

What happens when the Universal Studio monsters, an infinite number of movie tropes and coincidences meets 1980s cheese, youthful earnestness and first class makeup and visual effects? The world is saved.

But looking forward to the Dodgers bringing the championship to the West.

Pro Travel Tip: if the phone in your hotel room has a “Wake Up Call” button, push it, even (especially) if you *yawn* don’t want one. The previous guest may have requested one and the front desk may not have canceled it (or be able to). #TravelTip #DoNotDisturb
