The true north strong and free.

Perhaps it was time for a new version of Frankenstein. Well written and well acted by the two leads. Important story on the making of a monster. I did not enjoy this film which was probably the point. Too soon.

Thank the universe for giving us Bob Dylan and Jimmy Carter to think about in the context of our current political nightmare. This is an important film. Very well done. Ed Norton is particularly impressive in a supporting actor role. Everyone should see this.

What an upsetting reality.

Interesting that Anita Anand has backed Mark Carney. This thing may be over before it begins.

The USA has lost the trust and ability to lead the free world for a generation. I am confident and optimistic new leadership will emerge.
