George Clooney Goes Down Again! + Comments on Violence, and on TV - Mad Men Rolls and Rules

A while back I gave Up In The Air a - poof. Now comes The American,and it merits a - huh? There's no dialogue. George: Get back on it! In the meantime there are some good movies out there. Jean-Michel Basquiat: The Radiant Child, a documentary, is clearly worth a visit. Also, Mesrine: Killer Instinct, part 1 of 2, (I can't wait to see part 2) is violent and then some, but the violence is realistic and understandable. It's not outrageous, extreme, ridiculous and completely unrealistic, as in movies like Inception. Another good film out there now, also with realistic violence, is Animal Kingdom. On the television front, Mad Men continues to roll and may be, as impossible as it seems, getting even better.
