Confessions of a Liberal Puritan

Admittedly, I don't see many movies, but I did go see "Hollywoodland" last week, before my life started to get totally filled up and crazy, between teaching three classes (for which I'd given way too many writing assignments, I'm now thinking), working part-time at the publishing house again, and preaching last weekend.

I'd seen most of the 'facts' and 'theories' about George Reeves' death presented previously, in some A&E or other cable show, but I thought the cast did a great job of making Reeves and his era come alive. Made me remember what a big crush I had on Reeves' Superman when I was a very young kid and watching the ever-syndicated re-runs. It was his brains that I admired, you know, and that voice, since his face and form weren't the type I generally admire.

I'd recommend it warmly as a very decent and interesting movie, but not for anyone who's hoping for the 'definitive' answer to who slew George Reeves. Good work from Affleck, though.
