Indignation

Indignation is a gripping, potent and engaging movie with a script that deserves prizes. It is based on a Phiip Roth novel, which I plan to read very soon. The movie contains one of my favorite scenes ever when Marcus Mesner (Logan Lerman), a brilliant college freshman, meets for a lengthy and frank discussion with the Dean (Tracy Letts). This is another example of why I go to the movies. It clearly will be one of the best of the year.

Olympics 2016

How about the women's 400?  Allyson Felix appeared to catch Shaunae Miller just before the finish line when Miller dove across the line and won by 7/100 of a second.  Come on.  This is a race, not a race and dive event.
