Comedy, Bottle Shock

comedy videosNot a super great laugh a second video, but it did the trick.  A rather decent video actually, with some fairly decent acting.

Mom enjoyed it, but I wonder, if she even understood it? I know, sounds weird, but lately, she gets this sort of look, that makes you think she isn’t understanding what is happening, or what she is seeing, listening to.

I suppose that is the Dementia, but it is nice to see her laugh, anyways.

David enjoyed it, as it was set in the 1970’s & had a lot of older vehicles, that he likes. Frankly so do I. I mean they had style, class, and were different. They weren’t all cookie cutter cars, trucks, like we have today.

Movie IQ

It was a hoot, with Walter Matheu (?) and a host of other good actors, including Tim Robbins, Charles Durning.  It was funny, and had Mom smiling through virtually the entire movie.  That was special.

Every time I turned to look, she had this grin on, and was staring intently at the television, watching. Her eyes were sparkling, and were lit up, as she watched. That was worth the buck it cost to rent, and the time to go get it.

When those things happen, the light, the smiles, it makes the effort all worthwhile. Nice selection that Niko Video has, though I have to say, it is hard to sometimes know which video to rent. I really wish the descriptions were more about the movie content, than just a quick sentence or two, then an endless list of the actors and directors.
