On my flight today, the proffered movie was Big Miracle, starring Drew Barrymore and John Krasinski — the whale movie, as you might remember it.
That’s how I did.
I had meant to see it in the theatre, but I tend to shy away from animal movies. Even though I knew this one was positive — it’s based on true events — I hate seeing animals in any potential, dramatized or real trauma.
But I manned up and watched it today. And I was right. They found ways to make the animals — and me — suffer through this supposed feel-good story.
It’s so nice to cry with people you don’t know.
Which made the e-card that popped up in my Facebook feed today all the more timely:
You got that right.

Bill Murray is cool.
Part of what makes him cool is the distance he maintains from the public and the press. Which means no autographs. Which can make him seem rather uncool to some.
Well, look what he did in lieu of an autograph for filmmaker David Walton Smith.
Coolest dude on the planet.
Can’t wait to see what he does in Moonrise Kingdom, Wes Anderson’s new movie that opened yesterday.
Bet it’s cool, too.
