    A remarcable cast Yes/No. How old would Shirley Temple be at the time of the movie?
    The unknown girl has much of a documentary. I am pretty sure the protagonist was specially prepared to handle the patients.

    Shirley Temple was born in 1928 and the movie came out in 1947. She may have been 19. She was playing a 17-year-old in the movie. She looked the right age. We mainly watched the movie because Sheldon wrote the screen play.

    That´s interesting. I thought she was only a child actress.
    Where do you watch the new films if you want to, I mean if you don´t find them at your library? Have you got Netflix or something similar?
    I used to go to the cinema almost every weekend, but it has become difficult because all the public events in Săo Paulo happen in the street were most of the cinemas are.

    I think Shirley Temple is mainly known as a child actress, Danik. I remember seeing some of them that made it on TV long ago. We usually get movies from the library which also has an online source called Hoopla. No driving required since the library is walking distance. There is also YouTube especially for documentaries. We rarely go to a cinema.

    I found "Born into this" on YouTube, Tony. I may watch some of it.

    Yes, it is a good documentary. I remember reading something about him years ago and this confirms my impression of what he was like.

    I asked mainly, because I noticed that one of the big sources of free movies and music "You Tube" is changing is policy, at least here in Brazil. I found "The bachelor and ..." for download but I don´t think they were free downloads. Also I looked for videos of the Lollapalooza shows tht took place in SăoPaulo this weekend. Some guy put them into You Tube, but they were all taken all out again.
    So Yes/no, Tony or any one who is in habit of downloading You Tube films or music had better see if there has been any change in his/her country in that aspect

    I only use the free YouTube service although we do purchase extra cloud storage to distribute private family videos. If it isn't in the library or on Hoopla (which is currently free with the library card), we don't get it. Our daughters do purchase Amazon, Netflix or other streaming services I am unaware of but they don't live with us anymore.

    In US you have to pay more internet services than here. I think cloud storage is still free but I am wary of using it specially for family fotos and videos. 1984 syndrome. The less is known in the net about anyone´s ties the better protected they are.
    There also is a place near by where I can rent movies also new ones. There used to be a lot of them where you could rent dvd´s. But most of them disapeared because you could watch the films in the net. I think that is changing again.

    There's nothing in my videos that they don't already know. However, I think people should not rely on cloud storage assuming their digital files are safe there. They need to also be backed up on physical media in multiple places. One can build one's own cloud storage. Or so I have heard.

    I saw the John Hughes' film "Sixteen Candles" last night. I am surprised I haven't seen this before. Score: 10/10

    I found "Sixteen candles" but didn´t watch it yet. The sound is low and no undertitles.

    Watched a German film today. "The misplaced world". A family drama which in spite of PCs and cell phones seems old fashioned. I liked it but the reviews in general are not good.
    Here is one:

    Found trailer in German, Portuguese and Chinese but not in English.

    Even though I thought "Sixteen Candles" was 10/10, I tend to overrate the good ones and underrate the bad ones. It is kind of like have two curves when giving out grades in a class. I'll see if "The misplaced world" is in the library tomorrow.

    I just finished watching an old movie, "It's a mad, mad, mad, mad world". A group of people hear a dying criminal tell them where he buried a lot of money before the police arrived. The rest of the movie shows them trying to find that buried treasure. This is also a 10/10.

    My mom loved that movie. It is a lot of fun. They actually made it to raise some money for the widow of a director...or something. I forget who.

    La Passe. 10/10
