One of the delights of not having gainful employment is the ability to watch movies in the afternoon. Going through the traditional rental sources (Blockbuster, Hollywood) can be cost prohibitive though when there is no income. However, the St Paul public library system has a wonderful collection of DVDs at their various branches. So far I've seen the "Longest Day" (3hrs long and in B&W); American Grafitti (Harrison Ford as a cowboy dragracer!); Stalag 17; and the wonderfully whimsical "Jeeves and Wooster" British TV series from 15 years ago based on P.G. Wodehouse's characters (can you imagine Hugh Laurie ["House"] as a slightly daft British aristocrat?).
By the way "the Bear" can be thanked for that bit of amusement. The best part of this system is that there are no "R" rated flics, which makes selection that much easier.
