The Suspect (1944)

"Don't you think that an innocent man might be more tolerant in the cause of justice?"

"No, I don't. I think an innocent man might behave precisely as I have."

"Well, I'm sorry, but I can't agree with you."

"Why don't you arrest me? Here I am."

"I'd like to, believe me, but unfortunately I can't."

"No, you've run against a blank wall. You take my advice and don't beat your head against it."

The writing team included the writers who also gave us two other movies I like: City Slickers and Fever Pitch. Parenthood accomplishes in general what the movie Rain Man did for my wife and me. It reminded us of our autistic daughter And made us laugh at stuff that frustrated us in “real life.“ Similarly Parenthood touches upon a lot of hotspots in the parenting experience and helps us laugh at them. Their is a fine Ensemble cast. I particularly like KianU Reeves as Tod, who seems like an inappropriate boyfriend for the daughter but who proves to be valuable in mentoring their disaffected son. There are many memorable situations but one line my wife and I often quote even after all these years occurs when the other son Larry is pushed out of a still moving vehicle by people he owes money to. His father, played straight by Jason Robards, asked who they were. Tod replies that they were just some friends. The memorable line by Robards’ character is, “Friends. Friends slow down; they even stop.” The movie is full of good one-liners, as well as more in-depth sources of humor. You must ...

Black Twitter reacts to series finale of Issa Rae's "Insecure"

The final episode of the HBO series aired on Sunday night (Dec. 26).

Issa Rae’s “Insecure” has come to an end. The series finale aired on Sunday night (Dec. 26), bringing a close to what many deem to be a culture-shifting sitcom.

After five years of watching main characters, Issa Dee and Molly (played by Yvonne Orji), face their insecurities while navigating through uncomfortable situations in their careers, relationships and family life, the two women — who overcame a past rift in their friendship — ended the series as the best friends we met in the show’s pilot. This time, however, they were solid in their careers and had each found love with their respective partners; Issa followed her heart and chose to be with her longtime lover Lawrence, and Molly found a forever love in her coworker and now-husband Taurean.

“The real love story is Issa And Molly,” showrunner Prentice Penny tweeted. “Black women being dope as fuck and thriving in the face of anything is what we are really watching,” adding that the intention of the finale was to show that Issa was finally “secure in her insecurities.”

As with every episode since the start of “Insecure,”Twitter users live-tweeted as the show aired, sharing their reactions to every scene and laughable/relatable quote. By the end of the show, the tweets included general posts about the finale, congratulatory tweets to Issa Rae and her fellow cast members and posts acknowledging the impact the show has had on African American culture.

“I’m really proud of Issa Rae though,” wrote one Twitter user. “Really gotdamn proud. From a Youtube series to a 5 season show on HBO. Amazing.”

“I love that ‘Insecure’ ended with two successful Black women finding love and succeeding in their life goals,” added Temple University professor Marc Lamont Hill. “It really was beautiful.”

Others discussed their thoughts on the entire series.

“I like #Insecure because it was a show about Black people existing,” wrote @tinaqueen_15. “Not once did they try to remind us of Black trauma. It felt like I was talking to my Black ass friends and not talking to people trying to pitch me something.”

“We’ll be talking about ‘Insecure’ the same way we still talk about ‘A Different World,’ ‘Living Single,’ ‘Girlfriends,’ etc. for years to come,” predicted writer @IAMNJERA. “It shifted the culture entirely in just 5 years, and that impact will never be forgotten.”

Joan Fontaine in Ivy (Sam Wood, 1947)

Cast: Joan Fontaine, Patric Knowles, Herbert Marshall, Richard Ney, Cedric Hardwicke, Lucile Watson, Sara Allgood, Henry Stephenson, Rosalind Ivan, Lilian Fontaine, Molly Lamont, Una O'Connor, Isobel Elsom, Alan Napier. Screenplay: Charles Bennett, based on a novel by Marie Belloc Lowndes. Cinematography: Russell Metty. Art direction: Richard H. Riedel. Film editing: Ralph Dawson. Music: Daniele Amfitheatrof.

Ivy is a fair-to-middling melodrama made memorable by its production design and cinematography, which evokes Edwardian London as a place of contrasts, from the ornately affluent milieu to which Ivy (Joan Fontaine) aspires to the sparse and gloomy world which she tries to escape. Russell Metty's images are filled with shadows and Expressionist angles even when they're showing us the gilded life of the privileged classes. The nominal art director is Richard H. Riedel, but he was working for a producer better known today as a production designer, William Cameron Menzies. Ivy is stuck in a marriage to the feckless Jervis Lexton (Richard Ney) but is carrying on an affair with a doctor, Roger Gretorex (Patric Knowles), who has chosen to work among the city's poor. So when she catches the eye of the wealthy Miles Rushworth (Herbert Marshall), she sees the chance to make it big if she can escape from her current entanglements. The doctor has poisons in his lab, so the rest is obvious. But Ivy has the bad luck to run up against one of those impossibly intuitive Scotland Yard detectives (Cedric Hardwicke), who manages to riddle through the motives, means, and opportunity, and to do so at a crucial moment. Director Sam Wood isn't very skilled at building suspense, preferring to let the screenplay do it on its own, so Ivy doesn't have the tension and snap that it needs. The story comes from a novel by Marie Belloc Lowndes, who is better known as the author of The Lodger, which helped Alfred Hitchcock make his name when he filmed it as a silent in 1927 and gave Laird Cregar a memorable role in John Brahm's 1944 film. Ivy, unfortunately, isn't in the league of either of those films.

Scared to Death (1947)

[wutbju]

On August 9, 2022 Paul left his life on earth and entered into his eternal home where he met his Lord and Savior.

On February 14, 1931 Paul was born to Walter and Arlie (Dulmes) Veenendaal in Sheboygan Falls where he grew up going to the First Reformed Church with his family and as a member he sang in the choir and was a co-treasurer of the Sunday School.

He attended the Sheboygan Falls Public Schools and graduated with the Class of 1949. He then went to Sheboygan Business College and in May 1950 was employed by the Mailing Department of the Kohler Company until September 1951 when he was enrolled at Bob Jones University in Greenville, SC.

On November 4, 1952, he was drafted into the United States Army and was sent to Fort Campbell, KY. After 16 weeks of basic training with the 11th Airborne Division, he was assigned to the Adjutant General Corps and was deployed to Pusan, Korea where he worked in the Post Office. After 18 months, he returned to the United States and enrolled in Mission House College (Lakeland) and on May 27, 1956 he received an Associate Degree in Applied Science in Business Administration. He accepted employment in the Accounting Department of Schultz Sav-O Stores (Piggly Wiggly) in Sheboygan. He formed their Credit Union and served as the first treasurer in addition to his regular accounting responsibilities.

After 24 years, his time there ended and he became a Teachers Aid in the Sheboygan Public School STRIVE Program which assists students with dysfunctional problems. After 2 years, he resigned and was employed for several years making floral deliveries for Caan’s Floral. In the past, he was a counselor at the Friendship House, a Big Brother, and in the prison ministry at the Kettle Moraine Correctional Institution.

In 1969, he transferred from the First Reformed Church in Sheboygan Falls to Bethany Reformed Church in Sheboygan where he taught Sunday School and served as a deacon. When his term as an elder ended, he joined the fellowship of the Evangelical Free Church in Sheboygan where he taught a Sunday School class for children. In 1993, he joined the congregation of City Church and served as an usher for several years.

Paul was married to Nancy Veenendaal from 1968-1993. From this union came his son, Mark. He also adopted Nancy’s daughter Barbara as his own. When his children were younger, he enjoyed taking his family to resorts in Eagle River and camping in local campgrounds. He was an avid sports fan and enjoyed watching games on TV with his pet cat Molly in his home. He had an extensive collection of photographs and helmets autographed by the Green Bay Packers.

What people most remembered about Paul was that he was witty, enjoyed wholesome humor, had a notable memory, and had a desire to read and hear about Bible prophesy.

Paul is survived by his daughter, Barbara (Todd) Anderson of Monument, CO, and his son, Mark (Jennifer) of Sun Prairie, WI, six grandchildren, Ariana (Derek) Buehner, Claire, Katelyn and Noah Anderson of Monument, CO, and Rayna and Kaden Veenendaal of Sun Prairie, WI. He is fur¬ther survived by his sister, Ruth (David) Clement of Menomonee Falls, WI, his sister-in-law, Nancy Veenendaal of South Elgin, IL and special cousins, Glen and Mary Dulmes of Sheboygan Falls, and his special nephew, Brad Veenendaal of Sheboygan. He is further survived by nieces, nephews, and other relatives and friends. He was preceded in death by his parents; brothers, Roland and Lamont; sister-in-law, Mary Veenendaal and special cousin, Muriel Reimes.

Visitation will be held on Saturday, September 3, 2022 at Reinbold-Novak Funeral Home, 1535 S. 12th St., Sheboygan, from 10:00 a.m. until the time of service 11:00 a.m. Paul will be laid to rest in the Meditation Hall in the Chapel of Eternal Light at Greenlawn Memorial Park in Kohler, WI. He wanted to thank Dr. Marshall Matthews and staff, Dr. Vinicius Lopes and staff, Dr. Jacob DeMaster and staff, Dr. Fisseha Ghidey and staff, Pine Haven Rehab Facility, Aurora Health Care, Progressive Care Center Therapy Facility, S.S.C. staff, Terrace Place staff, St. Nicholas Hospital staff and the staff of Reinbold-Novak Funeral Home.
