Purdy's record is even more impressive now that he isn't out there

The long time veteran out there is looking awful. So it is just about the weapons and scheme, and you can plug and play any QB.

Don't think so

Two versions of The Postman Always Rings Twice - SPOILER

I had never seen either movie or read the book. I watched both movies on HBOMax.


SPOILER


I find it hilarious that the second movie never even got to the point of the title (the explanation that Frank gives at the end of the first movie as he is preparing to be executed). In hindsight I probably should have reversed the viewing order - the problem with the ending of the second is that Cora's death scene has far less emotional impact if you know it is going to happen. Also hard to generate much sympathy for these unlikable characters. Kind of like Bridges of Madison County - I am all broken up that the wife is remembering fondly cheating on her husband - who was away with his daughters at the state fair.
