Movie Tuesday

You probably don't want to see Interstellar despite all the excellent reviews (there are bad reviews also). I'll tell you why I didn't like the movie: The music is LOUD--so loud you can't hear what the actors are saying. It hurt my ears and I couldn't get over the morose music blasting and taking over the content of the movie. It shook our seats, which I imagine it was supposed to do to make it realistic. It ruined the movie in my opinion.

Science buffs will probably enjoy the movie for all the glitz, but I found the premise depressing. Earth is dying (remember climate change?) and a farmer (former engineer/pilot) flies a spaceship through a wormhole searching for a planet suitable for human life. There was some thought of sending people there to live, but ... well that's a spoiler.

Dot's 1st Training Day

On Friday, Nov. 7. Dot had her first training day at Rachel's house. We learned how dominant she is by watching her with M'Liss's schnauzer, Max. Max learned to avoid her and play with the whippets instead. That was fine with Dot.

Our homework was Come, Scoot, Submit to being held and brushed, and Wait. She did pretty well.
