dangerous movie, mel gibson

 this morning i watched a DVD movie, a redbox rental, 'dangerous'. i recognized mel gibson in it. i think this would be considered a thriller, and i do like thrillers. the lead actor was scott eastwood, and this is the son of clint. it is about seeing his family again at his brother's funeral, on a remote island. the role played by mel gibson was his therapist. early on when he is arrested, due to being a fugitive, i said 'it can't end this early' and i was correct. a band of thugs arrives, and they want something but it isn't the fugitive. his mom has disowned him, and eventually the backstory was there as to why. closing credits say that much of it was filmed in canada. 

there was some errand running to do after it, but nothing to pick up at the first stop, the post office. i got some copies at fedex office, then dumped the movie at the gas station. i had lunch and watched part of a USFL game, tampa bay vs. philadelphia. sounds like the game ran over a little, as right after it ended it went to coverage of the horse race known as the preakness stakes. but i shut it off before that race even aired, and i laid down for a while. i had some pizza for the evening meal, watched the news, then went to aldi for my weekly grocery order. then it was time to get on the road as i wanted to see a friend, DC native, who was headlining a comedy show at a venue where i do an open-mic. i didn't have a ticket but i was recognized by another performer and went in. i paid for parking for a little over an hour, long enough to see the first two comics and part of the headliner set. really liked the one about contests as it was relatable. didn't know the MC but the guest set was somebody i knew, a ring of honor member that is a louisiana native if i am not mistaken. later on i went on a walk and found 1 dollar 35 cents.
