A really suspenseful movie was "The Good Nurse", another one that was done well, but because it was a true story, of which I remember it happening....it was difficult to watch.

Hubby and I just found Kim's Convenience about a Korean family running a small shop in Toronto. We're only in the first season and so far there is no political stuff which is a relief. Hope it stays that way for the rest of the seasons - I think there are five.
If anyone can recommend other shows that are non-political, let me know.

Watched the final season of Borderland — Swedish police drama w/detective who is on the spectrum
And then the movie finale Mural Murders—with the same serial murderer and other characters
The ending seems rushed becauselot of time spent at the beginning on the lead detective’s time in mental facility because of his PTSD stress from death of his wife and other issues but if you followed all the series you can see that how it ends is not really out of character for the lead…

Probably moves too slow for most viewers—but well done

I liked it also and watched it because Justin Hartley was in it. Another x-mas movie I saw him in was
A Bad Mom's Christmas. We get to see another side of Justin (boy, howdy!) and I thought it was delightful. Just so you know though, Bad Mom's is kinda raunchy which is a welcome change to the cheesy movies, which I also enjoy. It is funny with an adult theme.

The old traditional Italian family is just like that....
The author of the memoir, Tembi Locke, remarried several years later after Saro's death, her husband whom the story is mostly about, several years later. It took her, Tembe a while to heal. I just might reas the memoir at some point for a, hopefully more realistic, in depth view of events that took place.

Here is one of dozens of post stories about the real life person the story was based on:

I was very surprised at the writing, thought it would be as you say, another cheesy movie, but it held my interest....

That was a lovely movie, I enjoyed every minute of it

Finished the second episode of the Pepsi harrier jet documentary.

Immensely entertaining that features the main players from that time period. There are some very colorful characters and it made me laugh on multiple occasions.

There's a lot of things going on, but it all fits within the storyline and doesn't feel like unnecessary filler to me.

The third episode seems like it's going to be a little dark in some of the things they'll show.
