Politics, Culture, and Other Wastes of Time

İ am declaring my brother-in-law Matt Lovell of Mesa AZ (not where he actually resides) the big winner in my contest to guess which film was showing at the Lale Cinema here on Buyukada island (near İstanbul).

The movie that was showing was 'Nim s İsland' (İt s almost impossible to use an apostrophe on a Turkish keyboard!).

This week my new friend Ferruh Dilmac- the manager of the Lale Cinema (which is not named after my sister Lale) will be showing 'Kung Fu Panda' this weekend. Alas İ already saw the film in the states.

My friend Jason Garnett who manages the Grandin Theater  in Roanoke VA will be showing the classic Coen Bros. film 'Fargo' for two midnight screenings there.

İ guess İ will have to hope there is a decent movie on the plane.
