The Criterion Channel had a 25% off sale a month or so ago, so I bought
a yearly subscription. It is nice to have a huge library of
movies worth watching. Quite a difference from Hulu and Netflix …
I’ve also read a few books over the past month. We had an extra
long holiday break from school this year so I had lots of time.
Recently watched: North by Northwest (1959), Strangers on
a Train (1951), Double Indemnity (1944),
