Boxtrolls is on Netflix. The animation is fascinating, the story is sweet. Funny and fun to watch, an obvious morality play but with some more subtle commentary, too. Watch the end credits.

Sort of a hybrid Twilight Zone/Night Gallery but pretty good! The kind of thing Rod Serling might do if he was still around.

Like a fool I refused medical attention because I felt fine at that point and I was in my 20's etc. It was on the I-10 in Phoenix. Traffic had stopped abruptly and I got stopped ok but the truck behind me didn't. The truck driver wandered off before the cops got there. The driver only needed one more citation to lose his license it turned out. The company he worked for told me to find another car and they'd pay for it. So I got another one just like it and kept the old one for parts. They didn't want it to go to their insurance company I guess. I didn't know enough to hire a lawyer and get more out of them. I only had liability on my car so State Farm didn't get involved. And yes later I literally felt like I'd been hit by a truck.

Take Shelter. Same director as Mud (Great movie - see this one!). It had a similar feel, but was basically just slow with unlikable characters and a WTF twist ending that seems like it was for an entirely different version of the film. If you do bother, just watch the last 10 minutes you'll get the gist and you'll thank me for the 2 hours of your life you get back.

Oh the humanity!

Amazon Prime Instant: We've watched several episodes of their original series "Bosch." It is excellent, and I highly recommend it.
