Logging

Film: The Maltese Falcon

Worse and more convoluted than I remember it. Maybe it was edgy at the time? With Bogart sleeping with his partner's wife. I found it quite boring.

Film:  LA Confidential

In contrast, LA Confidential was better than I remember it. From a purely formal construction standpoint, an impressive movie...I mean, I'd probably pay $100 to see a drama of LA Confidential quality in the theater tomorrow. It won't happen for myriad of reasons.

Graphic Novel: Watchmen

Still brilliant.

Film: Watchmen (Zac Snyder)

Better than the tv show, and that's saying something. The opening credits are a stunning work of art.
