inside lleywn davis movie

around midday I watched a DVD movie on loan from the library, 'inside llewyn davis'. i chose it because i saw it in the bin and said 'it was right in my wheelhouse'. it is a music movie and john goodman is in it. as expected, i found out much of it was influenced and inspired by bob dylan. when one thinks of greenwich village in 1961, and folk music, his name comes first. in fact, one of his songs was in the movie, 'farewell', a/k/a 'fare thee well'. i recognized some of the actors in it, besides goodman there was also justin timberlake. but both of them had small roles. and it was hard to root for the main character, llewyn, as he was temperamental and was burning bridges with many of the people in his life. i will admit i said 'idiot!' more than once while watching it. i also liked it because it was a road movie, and this is where one sees goodman's character, a jazz musician. i liked the scene showing the bathroom fixtures at a rest area on the way to chicago, though the term used for it was actually an 'oasis'. a house cat also figured into the story line. this is a coen brothers movie, and i have seen some other movies done by these men. 'o brother, where art thou' is another one of their movies, and has goodman in it as well.
   since it is the weekend, it means errand running. I went to pick up what was waiting at my p.o. box, three items, one of them was a 'chicken soup' CD, the lone amazon order, the other two were e-bay. i also made it to walgreen and got some fill-in items for my lunch. after returning to the library, to return a movie and get another one, i was home for a short time and then went to get groceries as well as have dinner at mall of america. i went to the a and w. it was odd seeing a post-it on my car when i was leaving, it gave email accounts, or possibly social media. since it said 'snap us' this may be snap-chat, and i am not on that site. i watched some of the football game on TV, ohio state vs. wisconsin, the big ten championship game. ohio state trailed at the half but had a good second half, and were up by 13 late in the game when i changed the channel to watch the late news. then it was on to the karaoke bar, where i sang 'i can see clearly now' by johnny nash. this was a song on the CD that i jsut picked up earlier today. at first i was taken aback by a man wearing a robe, and showing plenty of skin. i noticed his hat reminded me of what randy quaid was wearing in the movie 'christmas vacation', playing cousin eddie. when i saw this man i asked him if this was why he chose what looked like a costume, i heard something about being at a nearby building for a semi-formal event. one listed singer that was a no-show was a bachelorette party, so possibly with them. he sang a beastie boys song i didn't recognize, it mentions paul revere as well as a baseball hat. i liked hearing a lady sing 'the only one' by melissa etheridge, she really could wail. and it was a reminder of being at college in iowa city, when the song was a hit.
