A pleasure to watch 'The Post.'

Tweet

After a whirlwind of activities yesterday, my elder daughter sat me to watch a West End concert and a Spielberg film 'The Post.' How pleasurable can it get? Very pleasurable. I was glued to the tube straining my auditory nerves to hear every word, aware of the background music which, credits showed later, was another John Williams work. Do you know that he also created the sound of Paper Chase and Jurassic Park and Superman? The movie brought me back to the 'current events' of my childhood. We were given weekly news in school and the POTUS was one newsmaker I decided as a child that I didn't like. Fast forward, now I learned of the gravity of the crime that POTUS has committed to the American people. Good thing there was a woman, the owner of the Washington Post, and an editor, who courageously nixed the one-man power of the POTUS to dominate the world. Meryl Streep and Tom Hanks essayed the lead roles. Yup, as ever, very believable. A pleasure to watch.
