The flight from Frankfurt to Seattle was bumpy. The food was good. Movies:
- The Internship (2013): two old sales guys do a Google summer internship, Hollywood style. Weak, formulaic script, bad cast, predictable, bad story, yuck (**). Hollywood needs more scripts like “The Social Network.”
- The Way Way Back (2013): awkward, self-conscious kid spends a summer coming of age; worth watching (***)
- Frances Ha (2012): B&W, somewhat older woman follows her passion to become a professional dancer and choreographer. Interesting, sensitive, well-directed New York story about young people, class struggle, relationships (***).
- I also saw a bunch of TV documentaries and shows (German, US).
Home at last!
