Item: Giant

66Worth an evening.

It's long, the marriage holds, and the cafe's contempt is not scenery.

Pass it on

The review

Oil is what people remember, and the ranch is what the oil spends. An Eastern bride comes to Texas, stays through a generation, and watches the land change jobs. A son will not be the father. It was the last film of an actor who died before it opened, so that part of the picture was already finished when audiences sat down.

The town's cafe will not serve a neighbor with respect. That refusal is the part to talk about, not a backdrop for the size of the place. Older kids can stay with it. The marriage runs long enough to include a son who will not copy the father. Nobody gets the old land back just because the picture is handsome.

The glance

Stewardship is the thin one.

What is left for the people who come after — a place, a craft, a name?

This phone is set for a grown person, just me. Change the ages.

The Sound of Music

78 instead of 66

The Sound of Music is still a drama film, and it scores 78 instead of 66. What you gain is stewardship: The children are gotten over the mountains.

Alien

66Worth an evening.

Ripley reads the quarantine rule. The company already decided the crew was expendable.

Pass it on

The review

The fright is what people quote. The paperwork is what decides it. A commercial towing crew, not soldiers, answers a signal. The company wants the organism. On the forms the crew is expendable. Ripley, the warrant officer, reads the quarantine rule. Someone brings the organism back aboard anyway.

Adult, and I am not going to describe the body. She is not a chosen one. She is the officer whose work is to say no when the cargo is worth more to the firm than the people hauling it. Watch who treats them as a line item and who treats them as a crew. The rule was the promise. Breaking it is the bill, and the company had already signed the crew away.

The glance

Household is the thin one.

Is a marriage, a parent, or a child a real life here, or just a prop?

Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan

76 instead of 66

Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan is still a science-fiction film, and it scores 76 instead of 66. What you gain is stewardship: What he leaves is the crew alive, and a funeral held in space.
