Last night I tuned to the FLIX movie channel that's right next to TCM on our cable service. They were showing The Two Jakes, the "sequel" to Chinatown one always wishes were better, and it just doesn't live up to what it should be. But I can never not watch it when I come upon it, so I saw the last half hour and fell asleep near the end.
I woke up a bit later to the next movie, Hannibal Rising, the one Hannibal Lecter entry I'd never paid the slightest attention to. I shouldn't judge something when I wake up in the middle of it, but it truly seemed to be of no redeeming social value.
