It was Tuesday, cheap popcorn day, so Mary and I headed for the mall for lunch. We met at Jonathan B.'s - I hadn't been there before. I liked it - the food was good. I have to take responsibility for picking this movie - more's the pity. We saw "Because of Winn-Dixie". The preview looked cute, the trailer on the internet (see above) seemed interesting, but no. It's a waste of time, actually. The story was very disjointed and slow (I fell asleep in the middle of it), the characters and the setting were very weird. Jeff Daniels likes to do the weird things, like "Escanaba in Da Moonlight" and "Purple Rose of Cairo" - but this one missed the mark. Even the very attractive young girl and the talented dog couldn't save it. Save your money. Next time, Mary has to pick!
After the movie I went to see Mother. She's holding up very well. Then to the library.
