White Christmas and Mother Night???
that's a little too good of a match...
It was really the only way to fly for Mother Night.
And have you seen the movie with Nolte as Campbell?
I have it. It's a real downer, more than most other Vonnegut. The fact that the boss from Fight Club plays a nazi is pretty cool.
And you can't go wrong with Arkin.
Yeah. The book is an amazing story. I think it may be my fav (besides Slaughterhouse 5). Such an amazing story. I really need to check out the film version. I might check out the awesome video store that opened in Collingswood (which my sister said is the same one near her and has excellent selection.) So they might have that.
If not, it's Netflix time again!
