February 16, 2009



This classic is on Time Warner's free movies on demand.
Never saw it, always see it referenced in print.
Will finally see it today. Just finished watching it. It was
thought-provoking. Mifune is terrific. As is Machiko Kyô. The
Seven Samurai (Shichinin no samurai) are well-represented:
Mifune, Takashi Shimura and Minoru Chiaki.


The local distributor had a good selection and I picked
a non-local brew. Young's is a British Brewery. The latest Ale
Street News had an ad for this interesting Web Site: Here's to Beer.



They only brew this for America. It is good,
I prefer Heartland Brewery's Farmer Jon's
Oatmeal Stout.
