What I’ve Been Watching
It seems to be getting harder and harder to find something that both my husband and I want to watch. His taste is more towards superheroes, and mine veers more towards... well... Richard Armitage! But sometimes we have a meeting of the minds. (Movie stills from IMDb) Handsome Devil (2016): (On Video on Demand) I'd … Continue reading What I’ve Been Watching
Finally Seeing “Pilgrimage” (2017)
The Canadian release of Pilgrimage has finally come, albeit on iTunes. I found out about the September 5 release date only through a tweet by Get Reel Movies , who recently interviewed Richard Armitage about the movie. To me, it shows just such a total lack of interest in promoting the film that the Canadian distributor, Search … Continue reading Finally Seeing “Pilgrimage” (2017)
#Armitage fans – Burned by @DigitalTheatre’s Crucible?How to Help — Armitage Agonistes
As designed, Digital Theatre's new service plan did not include honouring any purchases, including The Crucible and Exclusive Interview with Richard Armitage. Now, apparently, they plan to grant "long-term rentals" to us, but so far it has been impossible to get any response to individual email requests. Perry has come up with an idea to get them to … Continue reading #Armitage fans – Burned by @DigitalTheatre’s Crucible?How to Help — Armitage Agonistes
Sir Guy Sees the Total Eclipse
It's still August 22 in Vancouver, as the birthdays of both a family member and an actor continue. Happy Birthday to both! And many happy returns! Yesterday's total eclipse put me in mind of Season 3, Episode 1 of Robin Hood. This is the moment when Sir Guy sees the total eclipse of the sun... and then … Continue reading Sir Guy Sees the Total Eclipse

My husband's birthday was this weekend and, at his request, I cooked chili for dinner and we finished off with his favourite dessert, vanilla ice cream with … Continue reading August Birthdays
My Birthday Loot
Before we get distracted by August birthdays (I have two in my family), I'd really like to share some pics of the cool stuff I got for my birthday a while back. First, some gifts to support my movie habit -- a Cineplex gift card and the extended edition of The Hobbit movies (which I … Continue reading My Birthday Loot
So after I Kicked the Ottoman…
On Wednesday evening, I was walking through the family room with my attention elsewhere when I caught my toe on the leg of the ottoman. The pain was unbelievable and I figured I had broken it. Ice and elevation helped a bit, but by the next morning I was only able to wear flip-flops (Ralph … Continue reading So after I Kicked the Ottoman…
More Vacation, Books, Wine, Richarding, etc.
Arrived back home from vacation late this afternoon. Good to be home, but sorry it's over. After my previous post, the winds changed direction and the smoke blew away. (While the area near the Princeton fire is still under evacuation order, today's reports showed the fire to be 35% contained.) A few of my more memorable activities … Continue reading More Vacation, Books, Wine, Richarding, etc.
Castlevania and a Smoky Vacation
With my family's permission, I co-opted the first two evenings of vacation viewing for Castlevania on Netflix. That wasn't too difficult since they all play video games, and my husband is a particular fan of vampire movies and certain animated shows. I am happy to report that we all enjoyed the show! We arrived in Osoyoos … Continue reading Castlevania and a Smoky Vacation
