Fish Chowder

 

I made a fish chowder from scratch.

It was adequate.

Made for TV: For the Use of the Hall (1975)

 Written by Oliver Hailey.

Directed by Lee Grant

Starring: Barbara Barrie, David Hedison, Joyce Van Patten, Susan Anspach, George Furth, Aline MacMahon.

I watched this when it first appeared and have watched it many times since.

In it I have found so much comfort and understanding.  A way of looking at and accepting and finding joy in life.

Netflix: Black Butterflies

 

Just about everything about this was excellent.

It was well written - clever with lots of twists - interesting filming, well-acted.

And suitable for grownups.

I found I had sympathy, sometimes surprising myself, for all the characters.

Except Nora.  That character was a total bitch.  I was really disappointed when they didn't kill her off.
