Intriguing

The other night I watched The Freshman on TCM. It's an old Harold Lloyd picture, silent and in black and white. It was entertaining, but also intriguing, seeing how slang has evolved in the last 80 years. I also came to the conclusion that people who can read lips get more out of silent movies than the rest of us, being able to see the dialog that's not included in the captioning.

Also intriguing was a new show on ABC, Big Shots. My curiosity was piqued by the advertising, featuring Dylan McDermott and Christopher Titus playing two of the four titular roles. It's a show that has great potential, and I'm kind of hoping it does well.

Mood: Intrigued
