Went to the  movies in Berkeley today to see Wolf of Wall Street. The Oscars are starting soon and I had not seen that movie. I give it a “B.” Interesting premise. Interesting to look at. Way too long. Leonardo DiCaprio was adequate. I can imagine some actors doing better. I don’t think this film should win the Oscar but you never know.

FYI, I went to the movies by myself. I like to do that. I started out as a film critic at the Palo Alto Times (RIP) and am used to seeing movies on my own. I used to have a pen that lit up in the dark so I could take notes on movies I reviewed. I looked like a glow worm in the dark theater.
