'Big Fan' on Prime
Patton Oswalt plays a 35 year old fanatical Giants fan that lives in his mothers basement.
Not a likeable role....but played very well by Patton. A good watch.

So after a two year delay I finally watched this... Every bit as good as the other movies.

Highly recommended.

[Baz]

Tonight at 8pm on TCM.

From 1985 and directed by Sydney Pollack........"Out of Africa".

Nominated for 11 Academy Awards - winning 7 - incl. Best Picture, Cinematography, Sound, and Original Score (John Barry).

Not the biggest fan of Streep but admit her work learning accents (in this case Danish) is remarkable. Redford is great as always.

Fantastic soundtrack and some beautiful flying scenes...that alone make it worth watching.

As always......commercial free!

I want Anna Kendrick to be my girlfriend, but I can't figure out how to make that happen.
