Happy Thanksgiving!

This will be my final posting until after the Thanksgiving holiday.
Ordinarily, I would have posted a blog entry tomorrow, but I figure that people are going to be traveling or getting ready for the holiday, so I'm going to take an extra day off.
I watched a couple of excellent movies this past weekend, TOY STORY 3 is certainly the best entry in this animated trilogy from Pixar, but it is not a film that I would let little kids watch. The picture has some very dark, frightening moments and the ending is a real weeper. I dare you not to cry.
I also watched THE KIDS ARE ALL RIGHT with Annette Bening and Julianne Moore.
My prediction: One of these ladies is going to win the Best Actress Oscar this year. It should really be a tie; they are both that good, but for various reasons (political and otherwise), I'd give a slight edge to Annette.
I picked up used copies of both HOW TO TRAIN YOUR DRAGON and LEAVES OF GRASS with Edward Norton at Blockbuster yesterday. I hear that they are both excellent, so I'll be watching them during the next few days.
I'm also moving along well with my screenplay, which I hope to have completed by the end of the year.
You have a happy, safe holiday and I'll be back with you on Monday.
Michael
