 I know we'll enjoy the movie BUT, those not interested in such things probably will not. I told my girlfriend I'd like to go see it. She checked and said "the ratings only give it one tomato.....I'm not going to a one tomato movie"....... Will have to go by myself......

I’m going to see it tomorrow. My wife wanted to do something for me for our anniversary, so off we go. It might inspire me to read another book or two.  Sometimes I just need the entertainment factor to spark even more interest...pun intended.

My wife and I went and screened “The Current War” yesterday. It was almost a private screening except for one other couple.

Not a bad flick. From what I know myself of the fight it was pretty accurate. Except for some artistic license. Like them throwing the switch to execute the first person in the first electric chair at the same time they turned on the Worlds Fair in 1893.

I liked the portrayal of Westinghouse.

Oh there was a Westinghouse commercial before the movie! I pointed out that irony to Wife.

Not being a history of Tesla per say there were noisy pigeons on Tesla’s rooms ledge while Westinghouse was making a visit.
